Hi all, my name is Michael Gresham, and this is my site to give people a chance to connect in, and about, Michigan City Indiana. My vision is to give people a place to talk about their City through a well-moderated, open access forum. Initially I have areas set up for local news, sports, business, and an off topic area. This will give people a chance to talk about what is going on in their town, and exchange information with other people.
If people have ideas, questions, comments or anything else feel free to post them here, to send me an emai,l or a private message. |

Hi all. Just wanted to introduce myself. My husband and I moved to Michigan City a couple of months ago. We are formerly from Indianapolis. Everyone we have met here keeps asking us WHY would we move to MC from Indy? I love Indianapolis and believe it is the nicest and most friendly capital city in the country. We loved living there. However after 30 or 40 years, we have enjoyed the best Indy can offer and we still go back to visit at least once monthly. Our daughter moved to Michigan City more than a year ago. During our visits to her, we found we really liked the area and decided to try to move here also. My husband is an avid fisherman and loves ice fishing. When we lived in Indy, he had to drive at least an hour or more to find really good fishing areas. My work is done at home (I am an online software trainer) and so I can live anywhere there is a phone and internet connection. The added benefit is that I do not have to drive to work. I love the beautiful Michigan City snows in the winter (again maybe because I do not have to drive to work in them) and the vibrant lakeshore summers here. I will say I am impressed so far with the city’s response to the snows and ice – the main roads here are almost always cleared and passable in a very short time period. Indianapolis has a little more trouble keeping up at times and it takes them longer (but of course they have more main roads also). I realize that we will be considered newbies here for at least twenty years, but we now embrace MC as our home and look forward to meeting many friends here.

I should mention that this is my mom. Hi Mom! Hi Michelle's Mom Did I spy a Fagen Pharmacy on Franklin Square? You'll have to excuse me...I've been under the weather for a few weeks and finally got out of the house on Saturday to do some shopping at the outlet mall.....while driving down Franklin I saw a object of beauty...a new store on the square. Is this a sign from above? Nothing is worth more than this day!
