Up North

Northern Minnesota is a special place.

A sunrise over Daggett Lake, August 2024

While driving up north you leave the busyness of the city and daily routines behind, and life slows down. The scattered lakes among evergreen trees, blue skies, fresh air, loon calls and the full, super moon reflecting on the water…

Morning has broken…offering an easy, peaceful feeling.

…all its natural beauty reenergizes and restores…and it feels a little closer to heaven.

So, when I saw a coaster with the saying “Heaven feels a little closer at the lake” I immediately purchased it for my friend. Every year she invites me to her cabin on Daggett Lake, near Crosslake, Minnesota, and every year it does seem we are a little closer to heaven while we are there.

And so it was again, this past week, up at the lake.
