Great pics! I'll have to look up that winery, and maybe try some of their product.  :cheers1:

I went to several, actually:

Shady Lane
Ciccone
BlackstarFarms
Gill's Pier
Willow (I just realized this is the unknown vineyard from the photos I took)

I meant to tell y'all a funny story about Gill's Pier...as a group, we bought one of their award-winning rieslings to enjoy on the RV.    $30 for that bottle, so you know we took our time with it.   

This particular winery's owners love their dogs so much, that some of the wines are NAMED after them.  There was this one particular wine, called "Ankle Biter" named in honor of the couple's Jack Russell Terrier, Bodie.  :lmao: I'd already bought enough wine by then, but I intend to go back there on my own one of these days.  ;)

Gahhh, I forgot one more photo for the winery portion of the photos I took.  I'm still working on the others (Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island), but I'll add this one for now.  :)



This is the inn at Blackstar.  I thought about recommending the place to my sister if she and my BIL ever decide to take a wedding anniversary trip.  It's beautiful inside and out.
