We started our slow meander back home by way of Leelanau Peninsula. The intent was to head up to the light house and state park at the tip and if we pass a winery or two on the way then maybe we'd stop.

Black Star Farms is right off the road going north, so we stopped there first. It was 10:30 in the morning, they'd just opened, and the guy hosting the tasting was pretty laid back. So laid back that I ended up trying 8 different wines with rather generous portions rather than the 5 I was supposed to get. It was totally worth stopping there. 
The rest of the drive was pretty uneventful and we were at the lighthouse in no time. The park was actually pretty busy for how far out you have to drive to actually get there. There were lots of children running around and young couples.We walked around for a bit and then headed back to find some lunch.
On our way back home we stopped at a few grocery stores. I really like Shelter Dairy's chocolate milk. Unfortunately every place we stopped was stocked just barely with white milk.

I'm sad I wasn't able to find the chocolate milk, but aside from that the day was a lot of fun.
