It was a perfect 75 degree fall day in Paradise, Michigan (really...that's the town's name). I am hoping this Saturday is nice, so we can explore another town.

Welcome to Perennial Passion
About Me
- Diana LaMarre
- Michigan, United States
- I am so glad you stopped by to visit my garden. I garden in lower northern Michigan (zone 5) in far less than ideal conditions. I have too many pine trees, too much shade, too many rocks, herds of hosta-munching deer and rabbits who think my lilly buds are gourmet appetizers. I am by no means an expert in horticulture or garden design--just an amateur with a shovel and a passion. My garden changes daily during the summer and I will be updating frequently. During the winter months, I blog about my favorite cold-weather hobby--quilting and just my everyday musings. I hope you enjoy your visit, and that you will come back soon.

Your picture tour was wonderful. You are ahead of us in the color dept. Soon, we will have the colors here to enjoy first hand.
ReplyDeleteHave fun on your next adventure.
Balisha
Hi Balisha,
DeleteI hope you get these lovely colors soon!
GORGEOUS photos, Zoey. I have been to Paradise, MI a few times. Somehow I missed the falls. We always go to the lighthouse and shore. Next time I will look for these. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteNanaDiana, You must go to the falls the next time you are in Paradise. They are just a few miles from the lighthouse. Did you see my post earlier this summer where we stayed overnight in the coast guard quarters at Whitefish Bay? I am assuming that is the lighthouse you are talking about.
DeleteWow great pictures Zoey!!! I have been there many times....beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have a brother near in Newberry and one in Germfask.
Warm weather for this time of year. Enjoy!!
Earlene
Hi Earlene,
DeleteYes, it was beautiful weather! Not so much now...cold and rain and more rain and more rain and more cold..................:)
The fall colors are beautiful in your neck of the woods! Our daytime temps have finally fallen below 100°, I didn't think it would ever cool down. :)
ReplyDeleteHi AZ, so glad to hear it is finally cooling off in Arizona!
DeleteI never get tired of looking at photos of that beautiful falls - and oh my, the colors! Just heavenly.
ReplyDeleteHi LostRoses, I never tire of it either. :)
DeleteWow, gorgeous colors, we are nowhere there yet! They are saying that our fall is going to be extended we will see as we have a frost warning tonight!
