Picking Grapes 🍇 And Swimming In October 😎

We usually go to a you pick farm close to Berrien Springs, Michigan. Hive account@bozz is probably familiar with this area. There is a ton of fruit farms close to Lake Michigan. Being close to the lake helps from the deep freezes that get down to 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

We got Concord Grapes and Niagra grapes totaling up to 49lb. It is $1 / pound at that farm which is really good in my mind and of course you can just be eating grapes and taste testing the whole time you are picking what you are going to take home.

$ZENA came along for the trip as well.

After getting the grapes we went to an apple orchard and got some apples. We didn't do you pick for that because we needed to get to the beach.

Lake Michigan is one of my favorite lakes. The visibility was probably about 20 feet and the water temperature felt like 75 degrees Fahrenheit. It was really nice and there as been really nice weather in the 80s.

Supposedly the Great Lakes hold 21% of the world's fresh water which is pretty insane to think about.

I usually end up swimming there and in the stone quarrys into October. Let's see if the weather stays warm enough to swim in November.
