Week 13: Enter the Your Patch of Michigan Photo Contest 2012!

Hey Michigan! This is week 13, and we're winding down our contest. There's still time to show us your state pride in photos and win one of our weekly prizes. We're looking 'Michigan' in content, tone and spirit.

Got a cool Michigan pic on your phone or digital camera? Enter up to three of them into the Your Patch of Michigan photo contest this week! You don't need to be a professional photographer to win. The single qualification for photos you submit is that they say "Michigan." If it oozes "Michigan," it qualifies. Each weekly winner will earn a prize, and we're in week 13, which runs through Aug. 27.  The week 13 prize is a gift certificate for two weeks of boot camp at Starting Line Health & Fitness in Rochester Hills, valued a $100. Each week, our readers show off some of what is the best Michigan has to offer – and more importantly, what Michigan means to each person. Previous winners can be viewed here. After Labor Day, we'll pick a grand …

With the hot rods of Dream Cruise driving all over town, this pairing of a classic car and historic home in Chelsea was our winner for week 11 of the 2012 Your Patch of Michigan photo contest. Reader Angela Powers says of her winning picture of an Auburn Boattail roadster and a historic home: "The photo was taken while we were on a day trip to Battle Creek. We, my husband, my 14 year old and 9 year old, stopped in Chelsea on the way home to do some geocaching.  The color of the car complimented the house and I knew the photo would look really cool!  It was taken the Sunday after July 4th." Here's what our judges said: "What says Michigan more than a classic car cruising around town. And the Victorian homes like these add charm to our small…
