The orange barrels mean that so much road construction is going on because Michigans roads have been in disrepair for too long.
The two Mystery Spots are tourist attractions. One on I-75 Near Grayling I believe and the other on U.S. 2 in the Upper Peninsula city of St. Ignace.
Happiness is a warm pasty: Pasties are a delicacy brought over to the United States from England especially in the 1800s of Upper Peninsula. The miners used to take them to work when they worked in the Mining Industry.
As for euchre: This is a card game.
Hope to have helped you with these cy.

You missed this ( which is in questionable taste!) and proves that someone from Michigan's highway department had a sense of humor:
I used to travel to the detroit area proably 6 to 10 times a year. On my first visit, a sales engineer from one of the distributors told me to look out for this landmark.
Michigan numbers all their freeway/interstate exits. If you are driving north of Detroit, you will pass Exit 69. The name of the road for the exit? Big Beaver Road.

That one always gets a chuckle from everyone I talk too. Big Beaver - Exit 69. Gotta love it.

Sorry to disagree Greg but the pastie originated from Cornwall, England. My Great Grandparents on my mothers side of the family came from Cornwall and Redruth, England. The pastie originated and is a traditional feast brought over as miners working in the mines of Pennsylvania and Upper Michigan had them as their delicacy.
