Rachel and I pulled off our most ambitious vacation in June of 2012 with a little help from our families.
After delivering the kids to the grandparents in Lexington, Ky., we attended a wedding with newspaper friends from far and wide in Carlisle, Ky. After the wedding, our travels included Nashville (what a music scene), Memphis (better music and excellent BBQ), Graceland (Elvis should have left the decorating to others), a pit stop in Indianapolis to see good friends and drink great beer, then on to Michigan.
While in Michigan we snuck up to Petoskey for a couple days for some kayaking, spectacular sunsets and more good beer. We also ate at Legs Inn (a landmark for Polish food I’m told).
The kids spent their time swimming and playing with cousins on both sides of the state, and Nate and I saw the Tigers beat the Angels in Detroit, along with Uncle Christian and cousin Ben.
A memorable trip packed with family and fun, and Rachel had her camera clicking the entire time.
