This is a pretty good list, but it's a little tougher if you want to avoid big cities and have already been to northern Michigan.
Here are a few different ideas, not as great as the the ones above, and some would be drives rather than flights:
- Drive to Green Bay, tour Lambeau field (the ULTIMATE in culture for those of us who are Packers fans

), and then continue on to northern Wisconsin. Rent a house on a lake for a weekend.
- Nashville
- Memphis
- Madison
