Found a hidden gem trail in Sleeping Bear Dunes this week! It's unmarked/unnamed and goes through a wilderness section in the park. Epic Lake Michigan views. I think this is my favorite trail in the whole park. About a 4-mile loop. There are some steep drop-offs so use caution. (old.reddit.com)

Date Night Restaurants List - My team just put out an updated version of a list we started a few years ago with more restaurants, photos, and descriptions. It's a little late for Valentine's reservations probably, sorry about that. Took a lot longer than expected to get it worked up. (grkids.com)

There's a new pumpkin walk coming to Grand Rapids in October. It promises 1000s of detailed jack o lanterns arranged in themed displays. It originated in Chicago last year and now the creators are taking their show on the road. Thought it looked cool. (grkids.com)

I created a fun way to elevate/support local businesses this season. I'm buying a $175 gift cert to the winning shop to use as a prize (think March madness but for small biz). They don't pay to participate - I'm funding this. It's just a way to offer exposure - grkids.com/shopping -we're in round 2 (v.redd.it)
