I love getting updates of pots in use from my happy customers. Plus you guys are so much better at pulling together a cohesive home decor. They used this happy yellow bud vase as their centerpiece for their easter dinner.

The Hidden Valley Preserve has quite a few trails you can pick from so create your own loop or out and back hike. My favorite part was the very first stretch going into the park by the river and how gorgeous all these little springs were as they were frozen with ice. Plus, I loved how otherworldly these are with the  moss were.

Little Traverse Bay is more about beach time than actual hiking. And I might be a little prejudiced in thinking Petoskey is one of the best places to vacation in the USA, because with a few exceptions I have come up here every summer my whole life. Northern Michigan in general is one of the best kept secrets as Lake Michigan's water is so blue and turquoise, and the skies are always changing and beautiful.

Pine Knob Mountain loop via Appalachian trail. It's a 2.7 mile loop with only 700ft elevation gain that provides some fabulous views of the Housatonic Meadows. 

Be pre-warned the trail head is pretty remote, and the roads get fairly rugged. We ended up parking before the trail head as the roads were muddy, and we did not want to get stuck without cell service. With that said my favorite part of the hike was actually the rugged lake superior shoreline we hike along on the way out to the waterfalls.

A house feels more like home when I have my collage wall of adventure pictures are hung, and pottery is out and ready to be used. This is my second rendition of my adventure wall that I have installed in our Rocky Hill, Connecticut home. I love seeing photos from some of our favorite outdoors adventures. You might notice a trend...rock features are basically my favorite thing!

If you are looking for a good date night or way to wrap up an evening in Acadia National Park I highly recommend stopping at Charlotte's Legendary Lobster Pound to grab some seafood. Then keep heading south to the Bass Harbor Light House where you can walk down a .2 long trail sit on some rocks and watch the sunset.

There are several short walking trails at this park. It's more about soaking in the amazing lake superior shores. Plus the rocks are are amazing, as they are tumbled so much on this shore that they are actually glossy!
