So this past weekend Brandt and I went with his parents to their cottage in Northern Michigan. It’s beautiful up there, and I was really excited to go back to the place where Brandt and I spent our honeymoon. I also was excited to go because of two new passions/ hobbies: photography and all things nautical and beach inspired. I hoped to take some pictures of some lighthouses and sail boats.
We spent the weekend going to Petoskey, Charlevoix, and Harbor Springs (if you don’t know where that is, look at your hand. It’s around the tip of your ring finger.) On Saturday we had a picnic lunch in Petoskey at Little Traverse Bay, a small bay that goes into Lake Michigan. Just before we found a place to park, I saw it on the pier: a brick-red tugboat. It was love at first sight. For as far as I know, this was the first tugboat I have seen. I told Brandt that I had to take some pictures, and if it weren’t for a plague of May Flies, (it was pretty bad) I would have taken more pictures.
I also took some pictures of flowers and a waterfall where we ate our lunch. I wasn’t able to take a picture of a real lighthouse because there wasn’t one around. Instead, I took some pictures of a mini lighthouse in Charlevoix. This lighthouse is used for smaller ships coming in the harbor.
Well it was a good weekend, and I hope to see more of Northern Michigan.

I would love to see that part of Michigan. Someday I would love to do a lot of things.
