People always ask what SAMA means. It started as kind of a joke. It was a sleeting, snowy day in early December. My friend and I were surfing a swell in Grand Haven. I looked over at him knowing we were supposed to both be at pre-Christmas family functions soon, and said "We are like Self Absorbed Michigan Adventurers." That kind of stuck, and like many of our friends we have a common passion for outdoor sports in Michigan, and we go out in any weather to get our sessions. He replied "Ya, SAMA!"

So it was born, the SAMA logo was fashioned by another like minded surfer friend from Grand Haven. SAMA is for all of you year round Michiganders and vacationers who know, love, and respect all the outdoor activities there are to do in Michigan. No matter the weather you will find us us out enjoying all the benefits of our unique freshwater paradise.

A sign from God


We travelled up to Mackinac Island this weekend for my cousins wedding. It was a great time, we spent a couple of nights on the rock. What a special time with family, and an amazing wedding! From there we headed out US 2 and camped on the beach for a night. As Anna and I walked along the coast, we were stopped in our tracks at this sight. With the cross blazing in the post sunset glow, illuminating the headland where Seul Choix Point juts out into expanse of Lake Michigan; we couldn't help feel that we had seen something special. I think this photo truly deserves the title "God's Country".
