My wife and I love autumn, so a two-night minimoon in Chikaming Township, Michigan immediately following our wedding was a no-brainer. We rented the most perfectly charming cabin in the woods, which happens to be owned by artists and sculptors Linda Hoffhines and Floyd Gompf. Their work is amazing and the whole environment is so inspiring that I could barely put my camera down. We had such a wonderful time that we're already planning our return. Happy Fall everyone!

So cool.

We hit the road to check out the area...
And began our adventure at a huge pumpkin farm (the name is escaping me).
Then we had a delicious lunch at Greenbush Brewing Company.
After, we popped into Journeyman Distillery for one of their mouthwatering cocktails.

Before heading back to Chicago, we roamed around the Warren Dunes State Park.
Happy family
