We asked on Facebook, and you answered with surprising unanimity: M-119, better known as the Tunnel of Trees, is your favorite Midwest fall drive. Gold-dappled boughs arch over the deliciously curvy road snaking north of Harbor Springs, following Lake Michigan for 20 miles. (A few minutes more, and you enter Wilderness State Park.) In Good Hart, shop at arty-rustic shop Primitive Images, and in Cross Village, dig into a hearty Polish meal at quirky Legs Inn.
