Have you been to the Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park? If you live within an hour’s driving distance and haven’t stopped by, you’re punishing yourself!!! This place is a gift of love from Fred and Lena Meijer and what a gift it is. The pictured sculpture is one of many that you’ll find there. I’ve got several photos of this place that I’ll be sharing over the next few weeks.

I’ve always found the drive from Grand Rapids to Lansing incredibly boring… that is until I found this back road route and now I LOVE it! Almost the entire trip is dotted with beautiful farmland, small towns and old structures like this one. Even the clouds were pretty this day, we needed the rain bad.
I like the drive down Price Road. The road changes names several times, but you can see from this link where to go if you want to take the back roads all the way to Lansing.
