I attended Excalibur Con 2026 - Part 7


I found the Brush & Pixel booth.  The owners were happy to talk with me about the convention.



This is the side of their booth, with much fantasy merchandise.



This is the front of their booth, with even more fantastic fantasy merchandise.

I found another “Anything Helps” sign.


Well, at least this is one of the more artistic “anything helps” signs that I have found.  I found this sign on North Second Avenue East, between East First Street and East Second Street.

I attended Excalibur Con 2026 - Part 6


I had no idea there was a social club named the Twin Ports Ghostbusters!


I found Pineapples on East First Street


These are colorful pineapple stencils.  I wonder who gave these artists permission to paint these on the sidewalk.



I have no idea why these pineapples are here.


It was a busy day for Housing & Redevelopment Authority of Duluth, MN (HRA)


Today, the North Pointe Resource Center/Rainbow Center was closed for refurbishment.



King Manor’s power for the apartments was turned off for 2 hours.  So, I chose to take a 2 hour walk.


I attended Excalibur Con 2026 - Part 5


I found this Warhammer cutout in the hallway.



I found this Excalibur Con booth next to the elevator.


I attended Excalibur Con 2026 - Part 4


Outside the DECC, I found a Hello Kitty car.



This is an informational sign about the Hello Kitty car.



I also found a Red Bull ® promotional car.  One of the drivers gave me a free Red Bull.
