From our place we drove this morning along M-31 following the East shore of the East arm of Traverse Bay to the small town of Elk Rapids. The drive is very picturesque, with beautiful views of the Bay, fruit tree orchards, rolling hills and pretty farms. We pass a nice looking B&B, and the Altonen Farm Market where they sell freshly picked strawberries.
As we arrive in town we see the arm of Elk Lake that finally spills through rapids in downtown into the Grand Traverse Bay. The Market is open and we find it full of people buying flower plants, spices, bakery goods, homemade perfumed soaps, and many other local products.
