News from the Week

After a week off that featured a pretty cool photo interlude, I returned to my favorite place in the world to find that Leelanau had also become the New York Time' favorite place in the world. We also had an article on Suttons Bay's Labor Day festivities and on the upcoming Tour de Leelanau bike race.

The Week's Weather

The week's weather was great if you're a wine grape or a beach lover, and there are plenty of both in the area! When the mercury hits 85, I'm tempted to complain ... then I think about this and close my mouth.
