Quick trip to the Third Coast and Kittens!

Michigan sunsets: Swoon!

The keepers of Archie’s Acres went on a quick trip to Union Pier, Michigan on Wednesday. We stayed at a wonderful little B&B and slept in until 9:30am 2 days in a row!! What?!! We also visited Greenbush Brewery, Round Barn Winery, St Julian Winery and the Journeyman Distillery, with a quick stop at Three Floyds Brewery along the way. And of course we did a little antiquing! However, if you’re looking for a bargain, this is the not the area to shop. The prices reflect the large amounts of money that have been moving into the area for decades.

Michigan: The Third Coast

It’s obvious, and accurate, why they call this area the Third Coast, behind the Pacific and Atlantic coastlines of course, because it really is. The beaches have soft, white sand and are home to the largest freshwater dunes in the world. The sunsets are on par with anything you’d see on the West coast of the United States. That’s my personal opinion anyway, even after living in California. One of the definite highlights of our little trip was walking down to Lake Michigan to catch the sunset. Absolutely stunning!

A 2 day trip was the perfect amount of time to relax and recharge, especially since we have so many adorable little faces waiting for us on the farm. On Friday afternoon we got home just in time to see the kittens start to open their eyes for the first time!

5 Day Old Kittens Sure Are Cute!

This is Lima’s #1 baby. We know this because this was the first little face that popped up on Monday, and the rest are black!
