I ate a free meal at the First Presbyterian Church.


This is my breakfast main course of good food.



This is my second plate of good food.

 

To my disappointment, there was no Bingo game after my meal.

My digital alarm clock is at least 30 years old.


I have owned and used this digital alarm clock for at least 3 decades.  Notice the wear and tear on the surfaces that I touch when I set and reset my clock.  Does anyone know how old my digital alarm clock is?


While on my daily health walk, I found more bunny graffiti.


The more I look at Duluth graffiti, the more I realize that it is made by just a handful of prolific, graffiti vandals.


What I found in the Downtown Duluth ICO and Dairy Queen building.


In the public men’s restroom, I found that the hand dryer has become a canvas for illegal and ugly graffiti.

 

My unsolicited advice for this building’s owners:  Buy and then install a new hand dryer ASAP (as soon as possible).


I found an advertisement for the Duluth, Minnesota May 7, Pancake Day.


I saw this video display on the wall of the second floor of Duluth’s Wells Fargo Center, that’s located at 230 West Superior Street.


These are 3 things that I found at DTA bus stops.


I found a walking cane in a DTA bus stop.



I found a cup of coffee and a cup of breakfast cereal.



I found a bag full of discarded junk on this bus stop bench.


I saw a message from the “Anthropomorphic Student Union”


According to their UMD website:  "The Anthropomorphic Student Union is a Student-Led organization at the University of Minnesota: Duluth exploring and celebrating the Furry Fandom. The "Furry Fandom", relates to the distinct culture surrounding the community of individuals interested in the anthropomorphization (that's a mouthful to say) of animals. No matter your level of experience or interest in the Furry Fandom, all are welcome to join our growing community!"


The message: Stalking stops when you step up


I hope that such informational posters will encourage people to stop mentally-disturbed persons from stalking students and staff at the University of Minnesota, Duluth.


I bought a big bottle of V8 strawberry banana


I wonder what my bread, made with V8 strawberry banana, will taste like.

I saw a sign for the 66th annual Duluth Lions Club Pancake Day.


This event will be held Thursday from 6 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. at historic DECC Pioneer Hall.  It appears to me that anything in America that is 50 years old or older is considered to be historic.



This sign is on the “Duluth Energy Systems” building that’s next to North Shore Scenic Drive.


I saw the Super Mario Galaxy Movie.


The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is more entertaining than I expected this movie to be.


I attended the 58th Annual Arrowhead Home & Builders Show at the DECC.


At the front door, I found out that the DECC - Duluth Entertainment Convention Center is 60 years old this year.



This is the big map of the DECC, showing us where the exhibitors are in the DECC.



For example, this is the LouAda Granite display area.



To me, this granite slab appears as an abstract, Dungeons and Dragons map.

I attended the Juice Pharm’s open house, celebrating their new ownership.


I ate this delicious and free food at the Juice Pharm.


Two Wednesday dinners


I ate my first Wednesday meals at the First Presbyterian Church of Duluth.



I ate my second meal at a “Hot Stove Night” at the Lake Superior Railroad Museum.


Easter Sunday Breakfast


This is the tasty Easter Sunday Breakfast that I ate, with great enthusiasm.

What I found in and around the Duluth Transit Authority bus shelter.


I found a half-eaten apple.  Please don’t leave your food in public areas like this.  Discarded food attracts mice and rats, as well as other disease spreading vermin.



I don’t even know what is horseshoe-shaped metal thing is.


Cancelled


This sign should have this message also written in Hmong, Somali, Spanish, Russian, and Vietnamese.

Be a Buddy, not a Bully.


I am in total agreement that “A buddy makes the small things feel like big adventures.”


What did I find posted on the King Manor bulletin boards?


Here is what I found posted on the fourth floor bulletin board.



Here is what I found posted on the fifth floor bulletin board.

 

Note:  I am looking forward to seeing NASA’s Artemis 2 launch, where the crew will orbit the Earth’s Moon.



I like to document the events in my life that put a smile on my face.

Sunrise over Lake Superior


This image was taken on the Blue Line bus, going from downtown, at the intersection of East Superior Street, South Tenth Avenue East, and London Road.


Anime Axcess at the University of Minnesota, Duluth


UMD’s Anime Axcess club should hold a join event with the Anthropomorphic Student Union, celebrating beautiful anthropomorphic characters.


I got my bread made with Italian Inspired Limoncello - Il Tramonto Liqueur.


My bread is made with cherry halves.



Thus, this is very tasty bread.

I attended the third annual “No Kings Day” National Day of Action, in Duluth, Minnesota, the conclusion.


My heart is filled with joy, like a pitcher of cold lemonade on a hot day, seeing that so many American citizens still believe in supporting life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.



Despite the cold temperatures and overcast skies, I see many people walked here to support this just cause.



Will these protests be the resurgence of inclusive Democracy or the last days of inclusive Democracy?  Your support or your indifference in these interesting times will make a world of difference, for good Democracy or for criminal dictatorship.


I attended the third annual “No Kings Day” National Day of Action, in Duluth, Minnesota, Part 5.


I agree with the “No Kings” sign.



I agree that Peter Stauber did do that, while ignoring any of his constituents that he disagrees with.



These demonstrations began at the intersection of Lake Avenue and Superior Street, as well as at the Duluth Public Library.  These peaceful protesters then marched together to Duluth City Hall, where they listened to a program that was organized to support life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.


I attended the third annual “No Kings Day” National Day of Action, in Duluth, Minnesota, Part 4.


I found several of these donations signs posted around the Duluth Civic Center Historic District.



I agree that we must stop fascism; or that we then must accept that our nation and perhaps all of human civilization will enter a new Dark Age that might last for decades or centuries.



I support those patriotic American citizens who support inclusive Democracy, while opposing those who support authoritarian dictatorship.


I attended the third annual “No Kings Day” National Day of Action, in Duluth, Minnesota, Part 3.


I found “Signs of Fascism” in this event celebrating life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.



Yes, I agree that these criminal oppressions are fascism.



As long as live, I will oppose tyrannical kings and oppressive royalty in my United States of America.
