Where getting away means getting together
Greetings
With the start of the new year I've resolved to spend more time on the activities that I love, and maybe try a few new ones. Exercising more is also on my list, and I'm thinking about taking up cross country skiing this year or maybe yoga. Either way, I have big plans for 2008 and I can't wait to start.

Happy Travels,
Michelle

Escapade Yacht
Romantic Escape
Valentine's Day is just around the corner and it's not too early to start planning your romantic getaway with someone special. Take advantage of our Romantic Escape Package and celebrate anytime in February. This package includes: overnight lodging in a standard room, champagne and chocolates delivered to your room, dinner for two at Grey Rock and breakfast for two in the Sunroom, and it starts at just $169.

If you are just looking for a night out, enjoy a romantic dinner for two at Grey Rock and try one of our Heidel House Signatures: Walnut Crusted Walleye - great lake walleye encrusted with walnuts, served with warm apple cider, fingerling potato salad, baby arugula, parsnicks and a brandy-door county cherry relish. Or maybe our Filet Mignon, served with roasted garlic mashed potatoes, bearnaise sauce and tobacco onions.

New Year's Resolutions
The reasoning behind New Year's resolutions is good, but actually making changes for the better can be a challenge. Here are some tips to help you keep your resolutions throughout the year.

1. Choose the right New Year's resolution. Be sure to put thought into your resolution and why you want to accomplish it.

2. Create a plan. A plan of action is always important when trying to reach your goals. Write down your plan of action. The key to constructing a good plan is to identify exact steps to take to help you accomplish your goal.

3. Once you start taking action stay on track. Reward yourself with each step you make towards your goal.

4. Remain flexible and keep on going. As our lives change, so do our goals. Be flexible with your resolution. Changing or modifying the goal is better then abandoning it altogether. Circumstances beyond our control may arise, so flexibility will help maintain your goal.

5. Remember to keep a positive attitude and celebrate your sucesses.

Warm Up and Detoxify
at Evensong Spa
It might be cold outside, but the Labyrinth Heated Stone Massage will surely warm you up. This ancient art of healing uses elements from Mother Nature to bring relief and restoration to tense muscles, sore joints, stressed emotions and a weary spirit. Smooth heated stones are combined with massage techniques to promote grounding, balancing and a deep sense of relaxation.

This winter, bring relaxation to your entire body with a holistic approach to wellness for the new year with a special Detox Spa Package, available only from January 1 to March 31. Eliminate absorbed and ingested toxins as well as impurities. Start with our Detox Water Cure to promote circulation, followed by a Detox Aroma Wrap. Continue your experience with a 50-minute Aroma Swedish Massage that includes our Detox Sea Algae body mask. Included are a vegetarian spa lunch and a yoga session. 4.5 hours.

In some way, I guess we are all peculiar. Feel free to show off the odd side of your personality today. Me...I love to wear crazy toe socks.

Thank you to our Sales Manager, Claudia for letting us enjoy this great picture of her cat all dressed up.
