Nurture Yourself in Nature with Sudha, August 2019

“Feel new again in Ely, Minnesota’s outdoor recreation paradise
Vacations are about jumping out of what’s normal and into an adventure that makes us feel new again — and that’s what brings people back to Ely, Minnesota, year after year. This outdoor recreation paradise sits in one of the most beautiful places in North America, among unspoiled lakes and forests, atop a glacier-carved landscape filled with attractions from the quirky to the breathtakingly sublime — every one of them an opportunity to leave it all behind for the Ely experience.”

Relax, unwind and renew with Sudha Carolyn Lundeen at Northwind Lodge in Ely, Mn. Aug 17th through the 24th. Be nurtured and renewed by the beauty of the land and water of the BWCAW, daily yoga & meditation, hiking, paddling, Nature Crafts, Forest bathing, solo and quiet times. For more details contact Sudha at sudhadeen@gmail.com

Hosted by Elayna JoynYoga and Sudha Carolyn Lundeen

Hey Picasso!  Here’s the Into The Brush painting class schedule for during the next 30 days.  Come join us for a fun time with brush in hand and paint on palette.  (Sometimes people get that mixed up so wear an old shirt when you come.)  We are located at the Fernberg Gallery which is 15 miles NE of Ely on a nice, asphalt road.  Think of us being on Ely’s main street but only 15 miles out of town.  Easy to find.  Takes about 20 minutes to get here.

Fall Cabin Specials

On By Red RockIn art program, Internet Specials, Into The Brush, Rental Cabins, Short Stay Cabin RentalsLeave a comment

 It’s a great time to visit us at Northwind Lodge and take advantage of our Fall Cabin Specials!

Fall weather is very calming particularly when walking around and taking in the brisk and fresh air.  The scenery is beautiful with deepening blue of the sky along with tones of red and orange, the yellowing leaves and all new changes that come about in this wonderful time of year!

Come enjoy fall fishing on beautiful Jasper Lake.  Take painting classes at the Fernberg Gallery a short walk from your cabin.  Learn how to put “fall”
on canvas with a brush.  Making lots of color meet each other in a brilliant display is just plain fun.  Painting it like yoga without all the stretching.  We still breathe, however.  You can almost feel your blood pressure drop as you slow down and enjoy the feel of canvas meeting your brush.  Everybody can do it.
