Holidays

You can't be on Santa's naughty driving list, however, to get a gift. You have to be driving on the good list.

The Canadian Pacific Christmas train rambled through Michigan last week. Why didn't anyone tell this was a thing? I love trains!

Thanksgiving means many things to many people. There’s football, of course (yay), there’s the endless fighting about politics (NOT yay) and ‘that’ family member who always drinks too much and pisses everyone off until the food coma sets in.

We love flying the red, white and blue over the Fourth of July holiday, but did you know that Michigan's admission to the Union in 1837 made the US flag get a little weird?

Looking for a place to enjoy a nice Easter Brunch on Easter Sunday, April 1st, 2018? Here is a list of some of the restaurants in the Grand Rapids area that will be having a special brunch.

Grand Rapids author Chris Van Allsburg based his famous children's book 'The Polar Express' on the Pere Marquette Railroad's 1225 steam engine, now based in Owosso.

The train still exists and rolls out of the station every Holiday season.

Writer Paul Schrader of 'Taxi Driver' fame grew up in Grand Rapids, so for his second big Hollywood film, he laid some GR love down in the opening credits: a full two minutes of Christmastime in Grand Rapids circa 1978.
