One of our favorite local places to visit is located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The place? Frederik Meijer Gardens - a lovely indoor and outdoor sculpture park, garden, outdoor concert area, and learning center!

 

We especially love fall at Meijer Gardens - here are some photos from a recent trip there...
