• Cloquet all day

    2024年10月31日, アメリカ ⋅ ❄️ 36 °F

    My next mini trip is to Cloquet for my energy auditor training. This one gets me my official energy auditor title. No longer will I have to be “closely supervised”. I put the air quotes because I wouldn’t say that I am checked much on my work but now I wouldn’t ever need to be. It’s a week long class and then I will go back for the test. It snowed one of the days, the first really good snow this year. So pretty and it’s starting to get me into feeling like Christmas might actually be close. I went for a walk that day at jay cooke state park and it was very peaceful to walk in the snow and not see a single soul. Chris came and visited and I somehow got no photos at all. But it was such a wholesome visit and made me so happy. We went to vitta pizza and a brewery. Then went swimming and played in the pool like little kids. I also went and had soup and hot chocolate in the snow and felt very cozy. Unfortunately those last photos were right before I took my test the next week which happened to be the morning after the election when we got the horrible news and I felt completely heartbroken. I had to wake up at 5am and drive through the fog which was like a funeral shroud. I even cried on camera mid test because of the election but I got through and passed. But I have never been so disappointed and sad in my life.もっと詳しく
