I know there are many who love summer. I do, too. But it’s  that time of year, when the mornings are cooler and days reach the mid-70s that I feel most alive.

As we inch our way toward my favorite season, fall, I’m full up with inspiration. It’s also my favorite time of the year to walk around our little town of 950 which is also a popular tourist destination.

From my home on the north end of the village, downtown I walk, with Gidget in her stroller, past shops and restaurants (we have some of the best restaurants around!), three large resorts, and many homes with lovely front porches or something that catches my fancy and makes me smile.

For the longest time I’ve wanted to capture the sweet and inspiring spots I see along my route and share them.

Well, today is the day I begin! I invite you to follow along as I post photos of my little town to my Instagram feed from now through fall.

I hope you will come along on the walk with me and enjoy Elkhart Lake through my eyes.

Thank you for visiting!
