Min•ne•so•ta (def): cloudy or sky-tinted water. . Origin: from the Dakota word Mnisota, the name given to the Minnesota river. . . . . . . . . . . #homestate #history #favoriteplace #lakesuperior #northshore #minnesota #onlyinmn #capturemn #upnorth #superiorshores #explore #adventure #serenity #tranquility #peace #love #sunset
I mean, who wants to hear a “normal” person’s story anyway? That just sounds boring. I’m all about the details. Circle back to that box on here a few more times and you’ve got yourself a #StevieStory. Plus, it all makes more sense with a little backstory for context. #story #storyteller #adventure #romance #comedy #details #longwinded #bigreveal #peaceloveandsunshine #Repost @mindykaling with @get_repost ・・・ I feel attacked (art by @danidonovan)
#fbf to this past summer when I was tan, warm and well traveled. Now I’m pale, defrosting and in the midst of figuring out what in the world I do next. #older #wiser #gradstudent #stilljustconfused #mexico #cabo #zipline #caboadventures #ohtheplacesyoullgo #waitingplace #sun #tan #travel #explore #peaceloveandsunshine
So about that post from yesterday when I said “I feel like a true #Minnesotan once again...” Yeah, nope. I take that back. A true Minnesotan would have been like hmm 🤔 , “I should probably salt the driveway before I back out” cause as soon as my Jeep was out of the garage, there was nothing I could do to control it as it slowly began to slide down the sheet of #blackice covering the driveway. My wheels must’ve been slightly turned to get into the #snowbank, however in hindsight that was probably better because the street was complete #ice as well and with no traction before hitting the street, I probably would’ve just gone straight into the lamppost across the way. Luckily, a #neighbor had come out to salt his own driveway and he walked over to help me get my car out of the snow bank. (Correction: he slid over like a pro in his hefty, weather-appropriate boots) Thank goodness for neighbors. They save you w things like #coffee and getting your car out of snowbanks. You know what they say, “it takes a village to get Stevie through the winter.” I mean, that is what they say right? 🤷‍♀️ 🚙 ❄️ 🥶 🤦‍♀️ 😩 #ittakesavillage
Thanks to the #polarvortex, I have now officially re-acclimated to winter climates. This photo was taken when the temps had gotten up to a nice, balmy 20F and it felt like a nice spring, coatless weather kind of day. It’s like I’ve rediscovered a piece of me that had gone missing while living the CA dream. I feel like a true #Minnesotan once again. . . P.S. After the life-threatening temps lifted, my sister discovered she actually DID have coffee in the house...so about that dangerous 45 second run across the street in arctic temps...
I promised my friends out of state that I wouldn’t go outside today. But then I remembered this morning that my sister and her husband don’t drink coffee. So we called a neighbor for help and I braved the life-threatening arctic temps to cross the street to get my coffee. I made sure to bundle up before stepping out into the -28F, feels like -49F. It was barely a minute outdoors yet my nostrils were definitely frozen. But hey, #priorities. #polarvortex #minnesotaexposure
