I’ve been wanting to take this picture for so long! ❄️ Finally got my chance this weekend when we drove to Petoskey in this beautiful blizzard! I was so happy I brought my old 5D Mark IV with my 50mm! 🥰📸
We were stunned to have a very special group of readers come by the store for a visit today! Vice Presidential candidate timwalz his wife Gwen, & daughter Hope stopped by the store to peruse our shelves.
Tim talked with Matt about some of his favorite reads which included Andy Weir’s “Project Hail Mary,” and Adrian Tchaikovsky’s “Children of Time.” And in return, Matt suggested he pick up “Recursion” by Blake Crouch and Reilly shared her passion for “Red Rising” by Pierce Brown!
Hope found our vinyl section and picked up “Dope Lemon” and TSwift’s “1989.”
Thank you to the Walz family for taking the time to come by the store and making this a moment we will never forget. It was an honor to meet ALL of you!
PS: Of course it was Taylor’s Version and yes, Governor Walz is reading True Gretch! 😉

The #fallcolors have been slow to change in some parts of puremichigan this year🍁🍂so there are still plenty of spots to hit, and some places only show a little color still. This shot is from last weekend near Harbor Springs, there is a pretty big difference between areas near the shore up there, and areas further inland. My suggestion is to get out and explore! sonyalpha #sonya7II sigmaphoto #sigma100400mm

Dreaming of spending time in Michigan's magical Hemingway country this summer. I missed last summer after years of annual pilgrimages. Not this year! The stuff of bookish dreams ...
This is my all-time Hemingway quote. Isn't it lovely?

Most folks would agree that finding your first Petoskey stone is a Michigander rite of passage. But do you know exactly what a Petoskey stone is? A fossil! Specifically, a fossil of long-gone Hexagonaria coral. This coral lived in prehistoric Michigan, when waters were warm, shallow, and even tropic! Once the Hexagonaria coral had fossilized into the Petoskey stones we know today, they were plucked from ancient Michigan bedrock by glaciers, and spread all over the state as the glaciers melted and moved.
You can learn even more about our famous state rock in the Petoskey Stone Guide by Dan R. Lynch. Check our website at www.shoppeninsulas.com for a special offer, bundling the field guide and a genuine polished Petoskey stone into one gift! Perfect for out of towners who want to learn more about this fascinating fossil, or Michigan natives who want to up their rock-hunting game. 📸: lindzjoy1188

[New book drop!] Today we launch Wildsam's newest field guide: Northern Michigan.
Water is everything here, even ashore. Glaciers that hollowed out the Great Lakes and pocked the land with inland waters also sculpted high dunes looking out over turquoise blues and plots where cherry and apple orchards bloom and divvy the rolling hills.
Traveling the roads and shorelines—whether by kayak or car under the Tunnel of Trees—we visit lakeside towns with charming shops and lighthouses. We sample a vibrant food and drink scene showcasing the gifts of this land and water, and pause for forest hikes, rock hunts and water launching points to natural exploration and awe. 🌊
Featuring:
-interviews about Michigan creativity with theaccidentalsmusic , sailing with jessiebrave , farming with Nic Theisen of Loma Farm and farmclubtc , jam making with April Butters of americanspoon , Indigenous culture with Lois Beardslee and Frank Ettawageshik, literary landmarks with Chris Struble of the Michigan Hemingway Society, water advocacy with Liz Kirkwood of for.love.of.water , and tavern tales (and fishing) with Tim Barr of Art's Tavern
-original essays by Chef ilianaregan_and_co , and Anne-Marie Oomen, as well as excerpted writing from Ernest Hemingway and Jane Johnston Schoolcraft
-illustrations by the brilliant lindsaygardnerart
-and the essential and trusted local knowledge of contributing writers: maestier and Jacob Wheeler
🌲 Pick up your copy at the link in bio, and head Up North for the summer.
