Northern Michigan New Year’s Eve Activities
It’s hard to believe we are already at the end of 2018. I swear the older I get, the quicker time flies by. I feel like summer and fall were just yesterday. I’m not even sure if I’m ready for the new year but I guess I’ll just have to make the best of it! For most of us the new year often means a new you and more often then not making resolutions. I love the idea of resolutions but to be honest I’ve never great at keeping them. I simply try to live my best life.
Prior to making those resolutions New Year’s is often celebrated with friends and family. Here in the Petoskey area you can kick off the new year with a multitude of events from family friendly to adults-only.
