Summer is here in the north woods. The beginning of summer has such a strong, humming energy; it feels like anything is possible. One of my favorite summer activities is working up a sweat hiking and then jumping in a lake, which is exactly what we did today! What's your favorite way to celebrate the warmth and sun? #grandmaraismn #donorthmn #gunflinttrail #northshoremn #northernwords #exploremn #homesweethome #summervibes #happiness
The transition from winter to spring is always a challenging time for my creativity. I draw so heavily from the power of winter for my inspiration, and its weakening leaves me feeling drained and burnt out. While spring is always a time of uncertainty in the North, this year is even harder with the tragic state of the world. You don't have to be your creative best in the midst of a crisis, and I talk about that in my latest blog post. Link to the blog is in my bio. #creativity #writersofinstagram #northshoremn #northernwords #inspiration #writing #lakesuperior #spring #experiencethebiglake #authorlife #nature #socialdistancing #grandmaraismn
Five years ago while hiking in Scotland and staying with locals, my husband and I decided that one day we would like to own our own home where we could also host travelers and show the same kindness and hospitality that was shown to us. Fast forward to today and that dream has become a reality! We are so excited for this summer and getting to meet new travelers. If you're looking for a getaway to the North Shore, check us out on Airbnb: we are Caledonia House just north of Grand Marais! 🌲🏡🌊🍁🔥🍂 Photo credits to David @westonpics4him
