Everyone has a heartland and as much as I love my adopted state of Michigan something stirrs deep within me when I visit the cluster of counties in central Ohio known as Holmes, Licking, Knox and Coschocton.

Courtship

On the banks of a swift-running brook on a perfect autumn day together. We all enjoy being a part of Kyle and Elizabeth’s courtship.

Saturday, October 9th we spent some time with Kyle and Elizabeth at a quaint old mill in the Michigan countryside, complete with a waterfall, fresh cider and donuts. It was a perfect autumn day.
