It's been a busy few weeks {Last weekend I went up to Michigan State for tailgating and the game, the weekend before I was in Chicago, and the weekend before that I was in a wedding}. I haven't had time to cook, or work on new projects, so I thought I would share a few pictures of a trip I took last October. My Mom, aunts, cousins, and I spent the weekend in Northern Michigan visiting wineries. Northern Michigan is beautiful anytime of the year, but I think it's even more beautiful in the fall. We stayed in Traverse City and visited the wineries on the Old Mission Peninsula.

Thanks for sharing photos of this trip, I am enjoying all the virtual travel i get to do in the blogsphere.
I always enjoy the photos of your travels! Beautiful!
Happy Fall!
I was just thinking this morning on the way to work that I might take a ride "up north" as I am out of Grand Traverse Late Harvest Riesling. Your beautiful pictures were just the incentive I needed to firm up my plans.
Sure wish I had a ticket for this weeks game!!!! I was at the Notre Dame game and that was a great tailgating night too.
Thanks for the beautiful pictures and great inspiration.
Great Pictures! If you dont mind me asking, what type of camera do you use? I have a Canon Powershot and love it....but then i see pictures like these and it makes me want something more...

What gorgeous photos! Isn't Carter from HGTV from Traverse City? And, another question - are either of the two lads from Two Lads Winery single :)
You have amazing photog skills. I am so ready for fall now!
Awesome photos!!
Really beautiful pictures. Makes me want to go there right away!
Traverse City is a favorite destination of mine! I love taking roadtrips up through T.C., Sutton's Bay and Northport. There are some beautiful beaches up that way. Great photos!
Alissa, these pictures are gorgeous. I'll have to put Northern Michigan on my travel list. It looks like a seaside paradise. The great lakes always amaze me.
Enjoy!

Pictures of pumpinks and lake where you live are enchanting, photos of vineyard recall so much Italy.
I always follow you with so much interest and I like your style very much.
Good autumn, see you soon, Rosi.
