Small meals for supper at picnic tables in Pennsylvania Park, Petoskey

We checked in at the hotel in Petoskey. We'd found out the restaurant we were going to was not available, so we looked for a good place where we could eat small meals outside, preferably a quiet and scenic place with benches. 

Petoskey is one of my favorite town in Michigan. I especially like the ambience of shops and restaurants around Pennsylvania Park. How about eating our meals in that park? Look! There is a perfect wooden table there!

Ah, Collie's hand photobombed in 👀  I'll shoot another one.

He's still appearing in the camera's field of view as the photo is taken...😆  Not a prank nor practical joke, but he is eagerly preparing for our meals. Disinfection is also essential. Thank you, Collie. :3

I brought coffee that I got in the hotel lobby. Sandwiches Collie made at his home this morning, nuts, cut cabbage... I am happy to be able to eat at such a wonderful place surrounded by pretty buildings and nature.


Pennsylvania Park is the heart of downtown Petoskey, located in northern Michigan.


It is a relaxing place for citizens with plenty of trees, some picnic tables, and some park benches. (You can see a small gazebo in the image above.)  Also, this park features a decommissioned old rail road tracks from the earlier days. Petoskey was the northern terminus of the Chicago and West Michigan Railway. 


There are two girls chilling together at the table over there. It's pleasant to see. The vibe of Pennsylvania Park, and pretty buildings alongside it has a charming feel. Petoskey is a soothing city.
