Down here in hot country, we're seeing lots of ads for Michigan using a "Pure Michigan" theme.

Here's the one that attracts my interest:

It been on here for quite awhile, they probably started with us in Indiana since we only have to drive over the border to be in Michigan. We don't even have to get shots, passports or anything else (no border-guards) either!


Onward to The Land of the Midnight Sun!

Love the ad! I spent four years in Michigan which is where I got hooked on lighthouses. I've seen most of them.

I particularly liked the shot of the sailboat going by Big Red (Holland lighthouse).

Thanks for sharing.

Who is the VOICE in the "pure michigan" ads?

Too easy to do a search...just listen to the ads, and the voice will be easy to recognize!

Your guess is????

(no prizes given)

I love that commercial. towel For me, this is the first time seeing it as I do not watch TV that often. Thanks for the heads up regarding Tim Allen. Once I listened closely, I recognized his voice.


It is truly odd that a lighthouse enthusiast such as myself would live in one of the only 3 states east of the Mississippi that does not have a lighthouse. Go figure. :p
