School’s out and summer is at hand. That means it’s time to make vacation plans.

Mission Point Press in Traverse City has your back.

They’re out with a true insiders’ guide to Northwest Michigan, including Traverse City, the surrounding area and Leelanau County.

It’s called Inside Upnorth, and it shows Northern Michigan has more than cherries and sand dunes to offer.

Heather Shaw, lead writer of the new book, and Jodee Taylor, a contributor, joined Stateside today to preview the book’s content (think restaurants, trails and meteors), and to explain how it came about.
