The state of Michigan - oh, what a place of pure wonder! A land that's shaped like a mitten, where people wave by holding up a hand and pointing to where they live on their palm - how cool is that? It's surrounded by the largest bodies of freshwater in the world, where fish play tag with turtles, and seagulls giggle at the human's funny suntan attempts. There are more lighthouses than a pirate could ever dream of and heaps and heaps of cherries ready to be picked, pitted, and popped into pies. Now, let's talk about the kids of Michigan. They're not just any kids; they're Michigan Sky Diving kids. They're the bravest bunch of youngsters you'd ever meet, who jump out of perfectly good airplanes for fun - with parachutes, of course! Take Bobby Bluegill for example, a ten-year-old with a twinkle in his eye and an infectious giggle that could make a grumpy troll smile. Bobby, his sister Betty, and their friends are part of the "Super Mitten Skydiving Squad", a group of fearless Michigan kids who love to swap the ground for the sky. Once they jump, they become superheroes, soaring above the Great Lakes, waving at the lighthouses, and racing with the seagulls. With a "whoosh" they slice through the sky like a hot knife through butter, creating patterns that would make a rainbow jealous. They believe they can touch the clouds, and sometimes, they even try to catch a few on their way down! Skydiving is not just a hobby for these kids; it's a way of life, teaching them courage, resilience, and the pure joy of living on the edge. And, the truth is, if you're going to jump out of a plane, Michigan's wide-open skies and breathtaking views make it the best place to do it!
