Then, we’ll visit an Underground Railroad exhibit in Ypsilanti. We’ll get the local history in this critical system of abolitionists. And we’re serving up the next episode of The Dish! Two West Michiganders make tortillas the right way.

Plus, we heard from a Michigan photographer who dreams of capturing Lake Michigan at its gnarliest. We ended with an update on why recounts are beginning on two stateside ballot proposals.
