This month I had a multitude of articles come out including my first blog post for Midwest Living and an article about talent recruitment in northeast Minnesota for Minnesota Business Magazine. The topics are wildly different but they both focus in one a special place in my heart – Duluth. As a new mom, I…… Continue reading Finding a Place in Duluth

Back of the Pack: Run for the Lakes Both Humbling and Inspirational
Saturday marked my 4th Half-Marathon. It was my first race post baby. Training revolved around teething, sleepless nights, never-ending illnesses, pregnancy gut and this lovely thing called a Polar Vortex. One week before the race, I was driving through a fresh foot of snow. Two days before the race, I was slipping and sliding along…… Continue reading Back of the Pack: Run for the Lakes Both Humbling and Inspirational
Duluth Rocks
It is no secret that I love living on Moon Lake. In fact, life in northwest Wisconsin is pretty amazing. But, prior to my life in Wisconsin, I spent about a decade working, living and playing in Duluth. Leaving Duluth was extremely tough. There is something enchanting about the city. Many say it is the…… Continue reading Duluth Rocks
Just how big of a Saint is Saint Urho?
I was never much of a believer in Santa Claus. Logic told me a big man couldn’t fit down a chimney and in the case of our house, he’d burn to death.

The tree, which is also called Manidoo-giizhikens, or Little Cedar Tree, is located near the Canadian border. The area where the tree sits was once open to visitors, allowing…… Continue reading Bucketlist and an unusual but special tree
The Hike
(I first wrote this a year ago while hiking near Bean and Bear Lake near Silver Bay, MN. But, on this blustery fall day, I cannot help but share again.) The anticipation was killing me. For months, I had patiently watched the calendar waiting for that brief moment in northern Minnesota where fall comes to…… Continue reading The Hike
Homeward Bound
A room next to the highway makes for an unpleasant sleeping experience. On the flip side, it does mean we’re up and moving at an early hour. I’m feeling mixed about our final day. On the one hand, I’m anxious to see our pets and dive into my gardening that is getting a late start…… Continue reading Homeward Bound
