I'll begin by saying I'm going to keep this post more brief than normal because the Wi-Fi connection very slow and janky (reminiscent of the late 90's) but I suppose that's part of the charm of this place.
My wife, son, and I decided to escape the hot, Canadian wildfire smoke-laden Twin Cities for the much cooler North Shore of Lake Superior a few days ago to celebrate the holiday.
We’re spending our first two nights in a cabin at the Stonegate on Superior resort. Our cabin is basically a tiny home and we’re only thirty feet from the shore and the cool breeze from the lake brings the air temperature down almost ten degrees. The footage below is from the shoreline just below our cabin.
Today we hiked at Gooseberry Falls. The weather was absolutely perfect, hovering in the low seventies.
We braved the slippery rocks to get close enough to touch the waterfall and feel the breeze off the rushing water.
We continued on down the trail along the Gooseberry River about two miles south of the falls. The views were stunning for the entire hike. I'm absolutely blown away by now much this pristine wilderness is brimming with life.
We won't be here for the super moon but we're only a few days away from it and the reflection off the water at night is stunning.
Tomorrow we're moving to a geodome resort called Klarhet for our last three days. There will be many more videos and photos to come!
All for now. Trust your instincts, invest in you, live boldly, and take chances.

Poetry should move us, it should change us, it should glitch our brains, shift our moods to another frequency. Poetry should evoke feelings of melancholy, whimsy, it should remind us what it feels like to be in love, or cause us to think about something in a completely different way. I view poetry, and all art really, as a temporary and fragile bridge between our world and a more pure and refined one. This is a world we could bring into creation if enough of us believed in it. This book is ephemera, destined to end up forgotten, lingering on some dusty shelf or tucked away in a dark attic. Yet the words, they will live on in memory. I hope these words become a part of you, bubble up into your memory when you least expect them to and make you feel a little more alive.

Most of us have experienced a moment of perfect peace at least once in our lives. In these moments we lose ourselves and feel connected to everything. I call these mindful moments. Words can’t describe how complete they make us feel.
These moments are usually fragile, evaporating in seconds. What if there was a way to train your mind to experience more of them? It’s deceptively easy and requires nothing more than a subtle shift in mindset. My new book, Mindful Moments, will teach you to be much more content despite the chaos and imperfect circumstances continuing to unfold around you.
