My FANTASTIC hubbs surprised me by whisking me away to Traverse City for the night to celebrate my birthday! I was so excited that before too long we were waving bye-bye to Lilli at my folks house and speeding off down the driveway. We stayed at Quality Inn and woke up to this view of Lake Michigan.
After enjoying our continental breakfast on Monday morning, we drove to Torch Lake to catch some fall colors! We have never seen such a clear lake in our lives! You may not be able to tell in the photo but the leaves encircling the lake were vibrant reds and oranges.

We drove up the coast gawking at all the gorgeous leaves and stopped in Petosky to ride our bikes along the coast. The finale of our color tour was the Tunnel of Trees on M-119 just past Petosky. I think the deer in the area know that it's the prettiest place to be and they were kind enough to let us snap some photos of them.
Our mini vacation ended with a bite to eat and some hot coffee at a quaint little place on the coast called Legs Inn. The building was built by Indians and has the best view from every table. We watched the sunset from our table and had that warm, blessed feeling as we enjoyed each others company. Thank you, Brent for such a perfect getaway!
