By the time you are reading this I will be a couple days into my vacation back in my happy place – Duluth Minnesota.\u00a0 \u00a0Yes, I’ve been there a bunch of times but that’s kind of the point.\u00a0 Please see\u00a0 https:\/\/beckypalmer.wpengine.com\/why-duluth\/<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0for my thoughts on why I keep going back there.<\/p>\n

And yes, I am going alone again.\u00a0 This has taken some folks by surprise simply given the amount of time I’ve spent trumpeting the virtues of being back in the offer after close to a year of working from home.\u00a0 But working along and vacationing alone are two really different things.\u00a0 \u00a0My solo treks to Duluth and the surrounding areas are my way to recharge.\u00a0 Sure, I do a lot of touristy things and eat in the most touristy places.\u00a0 But I also walk in the woods.\u00a0 I color.\u00a0 I write\/\u00a0 journal.\u00a0 I float in a pool.\u00a0 I just sit and enjoy the scenery.\u00a0 Some of these things I could do at home,\u00a0 but others I can’t.\u00a0 And the ones I can do here I tend not to, or at least not very often.<\/p>\n

Hopefully at the very moment you are reading this I’m watching a huge boat come into Duluth Harbor, or am taking in a beautiful view at Park Point.\u00a0 Whatever I’m doing, know that I’m going to come back home feeling refreshed and ready to take on the rest of 2021!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
