A walk in Nature

This past weekend we had friends at the cabin. We did so much over a short period of time. We went to an Oktoberfest, ate at a great Mexican Restaurant, played Sequence and had a bonfire. On Sunday morning, Greg and I took them to one of our favorite nature trails that is nearby.

I love tall pines!











In the winter, this is a great place for snowshoeing.






As we walk through the trail, it alternates between light and dark depending on the density of the trees. Here are my friends - aren't they a cute couple?




By the way, This weekend only - there's a Columbus Day sale at my nature store! You receive 14.92% off any item. Just use the following promotional code at checkout: 1492COLUMBUS.

What's happening outside...

Autumn is coming a little later this year to northern Michigan. The fall colors are only about 1/3 of the way. I imagine it will be another 2 weeks before they peak. Let's check out what's happening outside the log cabin...


Here's a view from the deck.





Looking out at the lake.






Greg needs to do some trimming around the dock. Looks like we're walking out into a rain forest.





Look at these mushrooms I found. Don't they look like 3 marshmallows you want to pop into your mouth?











Scout is taking Greg for a walk....








Would you like to take me for a walk? I promise to be good...
