Autumn

I can't tell you Autumn is my favorite season because I love them all but the beauty of the fall colors is breathtaking.
Our trip to Eagle River was a week too soon. We saw colors but this is in our yard and the park. Eagle River was worth the trip, the Cranberry Festival is a must and the deep greens of the pines blended with trees changing for the winter was awesome.

The gardens are diminishing but there is still a tad of color, perenniels that won't surrender to the frost.

Penninsula State Park-Door County

This is one of our favorite get-aways besides Mackinac Island! We often drive up to Penninsula State Park, Door County. Fish Creek is a quaint little town and a stop at Hideside is always interesting.
We take our bikes, grill, and a picnic lunch. Lighthouse Point is a gem, it has a shelter, facilities, and privacy. We secure a parking place on the cul-d-sac and to the left of us it is totally private. The view is great, the only visitor we had this year was one lonely chipmunk-no seagulls.
The view is panoramic and the bike ride is spectacular. We watched people on the beach and wandered aimlessly through Fish Creek. It was windy but warm, relaxing and stress free! No, we didn't get to Wilsons for ice cream but maybe another time!
