Inspiration Peak





Have you ever been to a place that completely amazed you unexpectedly?  You find yourself wondering, how have I never been here before? Even thinking how truly amazing it is that God created a place so beautiful! 
There are so many hidden treasures all around us, but sometimes the greatest ones are not the ones we travel thousands of miles to see, but the ones we find in our own backyards.  Inspiration Peak is one of those hidden treasures; and it is the perfect place to embrace the true beauty of fall.

A couple of weeks ago we set out for an adventure up to Inspiration Peak with our kids.  The kids we so excited and ready to explore!  They jumped out of the car and started running up the trails.  By the time they reached the top, all of their endless energy came to a halt.  We all stood in complete amazement! 

Honestly, we were not expecting it to be as awesome as it truly was.  The trail up to the top is only about a quarter of a mile long, so we didn't expect to see much.....to our surprise, it was the most vibrant panoramic view of the colorful woodland and hills of western Minnesota.  We were lucky enough to capture the perfect sunset and take these beautiful photos. 

One of our favorite things about this place was how quiet it was at the top.  There was several people on the top of the hill that evening, but everyone stood there in complete silence taking it all in.  It is truly a place to come and be with your thoughts or to find new peace and inspiration. 

Take the time to find a beautiful place and get lost.... 
"Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting"  -Ralph Waldo Emerson
