Where do Yoopers live?

DAdio, I live there! My husband is from this area and is a descendant of Swedish, Norwegian, and French Canadian immigrants. If you ever visit, order a pasty. It’s a meat pie that the Cornish brought over and took down in the mines with them.

My Italian family moved to the UP around the late 1890s to early 1900s. Great Nono worked in the mines harvesting Iron Ore. Poor man died of black lung, very common in miners back then, before I was born. If you ever visit the area be sure to do it in mid-Fall. The rolling hills of autumn colors as far as the eye can see is truly breath taking.

Been there a few times, just beautiful "up" there!

ngc1952, I love it UP there, I used to go fishing at lake Gogebic with my brother before he passed away. Great walleye fishing! 👍

My grandfather had a dry goods store in Manistique on the upper peninsula during the lumbering boom of the early 1900s. on one of his buying trips to Detroit, a gentleman invited him to join with him in a new venture. My grandfather refused, so James Cash Penny found another investor.

Highly recommend a visit to the UP and Northern Michigan in the Lower Peninsula is great too. One of the most famous places in the UP is Mackinac Island (pronounced Mackinaw).

Everyone is so kind. I went to College in the UP, Sault Ste Marie Lake Superior State University in the 1980's. My grandmother was born there if farming patents from Ireland, Canada (New Brunswick) decent. I have many fond childhood memories of the Soo.

In Manistique there is an old lighthouse which you can have if you agree to maintain it.

Player #1386132, Had a pasty when I was up there last - it was yummy!

Near to Manistique is a cold water spring called Kitch-iti-kipi, which pumps out 10,000 gallons of cold water for a minute.

wesley, Could have a JC Penny Co owner?

Just saw a YouTube video last night about this area and a few other places and that is the only reason I answered this correctly

wesley, Ouch!! Wesley, did Grandpa ever express regret? or did he "tightening up" or "bristle" every time he saw, or heard about a JC Penny store? Do YOU ever think of what could've been? I ask because I STILL think of a "missed" opportunity that would have been very profitable, had my family... NOTHING on the scale of your Grandpa's missed opportunity!!

Player #1386132, My Mother was from the UP. It was wonderful when she would make Pasty’s for us!

We go up there in the winter snowmobiling. Miles and miles of trails. Absolutely beautiful.

Fargo taught me enough...yep!

wesley, J.C.Penney?

I’m a Michigander and it’s very beautiful up north. Come and take a fall tour. The colors are amazing!

No idea; I just guessed right because the word sounds English.

This game is notttt easy tonight.
