Up Nort'

This weekend I had the chance to have a girl's weekend in a wonderful cabin. We began Friday afternoon and I was reminded how much I love driving up towards the Twin Cities; the area around Eau Claire just stuns me with its beauty - especially now with the vibrant fall colors. All of us were awestruck as we peered out the windows and just let our eyes absorb the rolling hills and colors. It was truly beautiful to see the reds, oranges, yellows and browns.

Anyways, it was a great weekend, even if I do need a break from Jane Austen (we watched Pride and Prejudice (the 5 hour version), Emma, and Sense and Sensibility. I love the chance to be in a place where there is no sound except your footsteps and the jingle of the dogs' collars. It was just so relaxing and beautiful.

That stretch of 94 between Black River Falls and Eau Claire is insanely beautiful. I'm glad you got to see it all dressed up.
