About Me and My Love of Lake Michigan

Talking about me isn't the easiest thing in the world (and it would be boring to say the least). My love for Lake Michigan, and the majestic west Michigan coast, is on the other hand always something I enjoy sharing with others.

A few of my memories...

Weekend day trips to St. Joseph's Silver Beach was always an event to get excited about. The crazy funhouse had this scary clown that was animated in a cage and would rock back and forth while laughing as you walked by. Spooky ... when you're young. Cotton candy was of course the main treat I looked forward to.

Other than the carrousel I was to young to go on most of the rides at the time. Silver Beach has long been torn down and now they have a beautiful beach area with plenty of parking, a concession stand and large bathrooms.

As I grew older, trips with friends to the beaches were some of the most memorable times of my life. Sunburns, walking on hot sand, climbing dunes, watching the sunset, were all part of the summertime fun I enjoyed.

I always was, and still am, in awe of the sheer natural beauty of Lake Michigan and the surrounding areas.

My wife Sue says, "in only one hour you can look up and down the shore and feel like your in the South of France or any other place in the world you want it to be."

We're lucky ... an hours drive and we escape the crazy rat race of life.

Lake Michigan will touch your soul with all its majesty. I can't be away from it for to long ... it's my therapy.

Building a web site about Lake Michigan is a way for me to show others why I believe Michigan's west coast is one of the most romantic areas in the world.

I have also been downsized out of the workforce several times in the past 13 years. Once after being with a company for 30 years. I figured out I needed to do something (on my own) to add extra income as I faced retirement.

Working part time jobs after retiring didn't appeal to me.

It sounded good but ... me, build a website? With all the crazy get rich schemes out there I needed proof so I spent the time to check it out.

It offered everything (all the tools) someone like me needed to have a chance at building a successful web site that would generate extra income.

The other nice thing was I could try it out risk free.

It has been one of the most exciting (and fun) things I have ever successfully attempted. The things I have learned and continue to learn are only possible because of the proven Site Build It system.

My site is building a growing income stream as I continue to build and expand pages. Some of the links are called affilliate programs. When you click through the link and make a purchase we get paid a commission.

This extra income allows Sue and I the opportunity to enjoy our passion ... getaways along Lake Michigan more frequently. This means we are giving you information from our personal experiences. Information you can rely on from someone who has been there - done that.

We hope you enjoy our website. Take a look at SBI because ...

Maybe your like me ... close to retirement. I can use the extra income!

Maybe you're a stay at home mom who would like to generate some extra income.

Maybe you have a website that's not producing the results you hoped for.

Maybe you have considered the possibility of having your own website, but you are not sure where to start, take a look at Site Build It. It really is an honest chance to turn your passion into extra income.

All the Best,
Paul B.
