I love me some Bena, Minnesota time… only here can you have air conditioning running one day, and the fireplace the next.  Although I didn’t get to disconnect for an entire week this year [part of being a big girl with a big job] every minute was truly appreciated. Leave it to nature to melt away your modern day stresses.

I had an absolute blast with Taylor’s great family, who traveled all the way from Oregon and Missouri to be here.

I’m a 9-5 computer-nerd, I know this, but I looove the time when I can wander away from technology. To get away from communication that doesn’t involve face-to-face contact—agh, it’s the best.

My happiness stems from really taking time to honestly appreciate simplicity. A sunset can make me feel grateful. A wiser story can make me feel grounded. An instrument can make me mindful. It may only make sense to me, but that’s perfectly fine.

These thoughts don’t come easier then when you’re fishing out of a boat with good people. Enough said. Here’s some photography from my vacation up North (Bena, Minnesota).

I’m exploring Northern Minnesota with Taylor J. And I’m going to unplug. Starting now.
