Following a whim and experiencing nature equate to a day of many perfect moments. My husband and I spent a day over the weekend did just that over the weekend. We had created quite a list over the last few months of places to visit and explore in our new hometown, so following a wonderful breakfast of scones, carmelized pears, and strawberry-covered waffles (perfect moment #1) we began to recall out loud some of those places we wanted to explore and went! We drove up the North Shore of Lake Superior and walked around the town of Two Harbors, visited a lighthouse in the area and took lots of pictures (perfect moment #2)! My husband even stuck his hand in the unfrozen lake water (which is ice cold, even in the heat of summer!). Then we drove back to Duluth and went hiking along a road that they shut down in the winter due to the conditions but it's perfect for walking and cross country skiing. We were surrounded by millions of birch and pine trees and newly fallen snow (perfect moment#4) and took tons more pictures which I am very excited to combine with my calligraphy! At the end of the day, my husband and I both felt so peaceful and inspired and refreshed and began looking forward to another hike in the woods (perfect moment #4).
