I M Perfect lady

Life is about repeating what we love, daring new firsts and challenging each other to grow and stretch towards new spaces.  WIND Goes, is the perfect event to try new things.

Driving the jeep pulling a trailer was the first for me.  I was nervous.  WHAT IF, sounded all around this new experience.  I had to not only think of the jeep; but a trailer I couldn't see.  The tire kept the trailer hidden from my view.  AND, I knew I could drive a straight line; but I worried about backing up or unhitching and re-hitching, and the straps etc.

If you let it all be, it unfolds perfectly.  I had the space to turn around and I had help strapping down the kayaks, and in the morning, when I did need to unhitch, it was no problem hooking back up!  With a few more trips, I would feel comfortable!

And, I am so glad I dared trailer the kayaks, because on Saturday morning, we had the best paddle on the lake!

I forgot how much I LOVE to kayak.  I will have to try and get back on the water soon!

After a long kayak, we jumped on our bikes!

And, heading to White City about 11 miles away.  It was slightly overcast and cool for the ride to Lake Superior. 

A nice ride of gradual uphills and then gradual downhills.  A good workout!

And, the refreshing chill of Lake Superior awaited us!  It was amazing!!! Once your body regulated to the cold, it was nice to swim and enjoy the waves!

And, a picnic after the swim had us feeling pretty spoiled!  The Universe seemed to dance the perfect weather for each of our events that day!  Never too cold, too hot and just the right amount of wind to keep the bugs at bay!  Simply Perfect!

When a fog bank rolled in, we knew it was time to get back on the bikes and head back. 22 miles in total. 

After soaking up the sun (which of course was shining back at the cottage) we had dinner and a few ladies left our group. The three of us who remained, headed back to Lake Superior for a beach walk and to walk the Pier. It was again just amazing. Wind, Waves and art along the shore!

We found Art in the making and added our touch!  This is something we still need to do more of; using nature to create an art sculpture!

And, then back to watch the sunset.  We were that good kinda tired.

A weekend of memories made, Women In New Directions continues to help me grow in ways I would not have imagined!

We had so many belly laughs on the dock as we watched the sun slowly -every so slowly reach the horizon. We were beat!

Catching the last glimpse of wonderful day!  Big Agnes and I, on our second adventure!

What I love about WIND Goes, is that we have an extended time together and lots of activities which make each of us expand; mentally, physically and inwardly.  Each of us leave with more than what we came with.  

More peace, deeper friendship, stronger and empowered!

I love that we continue to reach further than each alone would go!

WIND Goes- Adventure #2, is in the books!  And, each of us are dreaming of another horizon.
