I took this picture in August at Otter Lake off Trails End Road. I think nights like this answer why Leelanau.

Our son Matt who lives and works in Traverse City loves the walk up and view from the top of Sugar Loaf. Looking at our home base, Lime Lake.

Leelanau doesn't disappoint, even in the grayest of Octobers (2009).

My husband and I relished every funky change of weather-sun, rain, sleet, high winds, more sun, chilly to downright cold to warming up again. He loves to just sit on our deck and "breathe in that north woods air" — it is heaven to him to arrive on the Leelanau Peninsula, no matter the season or time of day. It's replenishing to those of us who aren't lucky enough to live up there, to be there even for just a few days.

I have taken over 10,000 pics of the area over the last 5 yrs and love it more and more when I am on vacation in Empire, Glen Arbor and surrounding areas to see In-Laws. Here are some of my pics and hope you enjoy them as much as I love taking them.
