Traverse City: A Trail Day
I spent the whole day exploring Traverse City on two wheels—cruising scenic bike paths, wandering lakefront neighborhoods, sampling good coffee, helping a kid fix his bike chain, and soaking up the vibe of the Cherry Festival (with surprisingly few cherries). Sometimes the simplest days on the trail turn out to be the best.
Point Betsie and Drive to Cherry Festival
Stocking up at Meijer(super market), wandering Point Betsie Lighthouse with my camera, and settling in for the Traverse City Cherry Festival — one stop at a time.
A Day in Huron-Manistee: Adjusting Screws
Tucked among the perfectly straight pines in the cool hush of Huron-Manistee, I spent a quiet day tightening loose screws, cleaning up the van, and soaking in the shade. No big adventures, just the simple satisfaction of small tasks, good coffee, and the peaceful company of the forest.
Idlewild, Jones Ice Cream, and a Quiet Forest Night
A day of wandering backroads led me through Idlewild’s historic roots, a stop for the richest ice cream at Jones in Baldwin, and finally a calm night alone under the pines of the Huron-Manistee National Forest.
