On rare occasion, I get to do a little travelling. This coming weekend, I am headed up to the U.P. for the first time even in the fall. I'm excited to see the changing leaves on some of my favorite spots in the world! My family and I usually have been up there in the summer so I'm excited for a change of pace in one of my favorite places. But back to TODAY'S post...
Some of my favorite trips are to places in the great state of Michigan. This really is an amazing state with so many beautiful locations, and even better, most don't require a plane ride to get to them (which is great for me since I'm not a fan of flying!). Over a month ago (See? I'm still busy!), my husband, Mike, and I took a quick Sunday drive up to Traverse City. We went to the Old Mission Peninsula to grab a little wine and see the gorgeous views of Lake Michigan. See our quick trip below!
