On Saturday, September 13th, Tricia (right) and I took Kate (center) on an abbreviated tour of the Southwest Michigan Wine Trail to celebrate her birthday. Tricia's little sis, Holly, chauffered us around in T's minivan for the day, and well, we had fun. Here we are at our first stop enjoying a tasting. There's nothing like a 10am splash of wine!
It RAINED, not drizzled, for the entire day. Precipitation could not dampen our spirits with so many spirits to imbibe! I took this photo outside the Warner Winery in Paw Paw. This place was so cute and quaint, but we found its staff to be, well... a bit Van Buren County. Let's just say we weren't the only ones in that joint who'd been drinking. We later found out that 3 hours after we left, a tornado touched down in the courtyard where we were standing.
In Coloma we visited a little gem called The Chocolate Garden, home of world-famous handmade truffles. Unfortunately there weren't free tastings offered here, but the goods did not disappoint.
