LOL. My head hurts after reading that.

When you are in Michigan, you are never more than 6 miles from fresh water. No point in Michigan is greater than 6 miles from an inland lake, and no point is greater than 85 miles from one of the Great Lakes.

Interestingly, someone figured out that the farthest point in the state from a Great Lake is roughly on this corner in front of City Hall in downtown Eaton Rapids. I wonder if those kids know!
