Platte River

This weekend we had the wonderful opportunity to spend a day without kids canoeing down the Platte River in Northern Michigan with our friends Andy and Leanne. Our hope was to see a lot of colors in the trees but as you can tell not too much has turned. No big deal... It was a beautiful day and the amount of Salmon in the water was awesome. It was like something you've only seen on the discovery channel. Every parent needs some relaxing adult time away. I'm so grateful for my parents who are always stepping up to take the kids and give us these times.




After canoeing we went over to Cherry Repbulic in Glen Arbor to sample some wine and yummy food. Josh and I had never been there and being one that doesn't really like cherry flavoring in foods was pleasantly surprised. We came away with a bottle of their Cherry Red wine which is 20% cherry wine and 80% Merlot...mmmm good!

And why not end the day with good pizza at Pangea's Pizza Pub in Traverse City
