Up North Tradition

Every Summer the family take a vacation to Northern Michigan. This Summer was no different. Welcome to our UP NORTH TRADITION!


Time was not an issue and the adventures mapped out our days...

Our first stop... Robinson's Senic Garden - sculpture destination.

We took day trips to different places.

Torch Lake

Mackinaw City

Charlavoix

Northport - My husbands family had a cottage up there 40 years ago.

Our Putt-Putt Golfing Adventure at Captain's Cove.

The Beautiful Traverse City. Our final destination.

Waves crashing against the shore.

Beautiful Sunsets each night.

Fun Sand Creations.

We spent more time in the water then out!

We couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Only wished it could have lasted longer. But isn't that how it always is...?

Hope you had as much fun as we did.

Butterflies are Free

It seems like summer is coming to an end here in Michigan, the days are getting shorter with the sun setting earlier, and the warm days are turning into cool waking hours however I still see butterflies and moths fluttering through the air.

Here are some from butterflies from our trip Up North.
