Despite all that, I still feel safe while living in
King Manor. I took this image from the pedestrian
overpass over East Second Street, looking east.

I see that the police have made another visit to King Manor.
I bought a bottle of Giffard Banane du Brésil.
I bought banana liqueur for my baker to make banana
bread. The backdrop that I choose is the
Chester Creek Bookstore on East Superior Street.
This former church once had a Sunday school building west of the church. If I had the money, I would have bought this Sunday school building, for my new home. This Sunday school building is now a memory. Yet, if I could, I would build my new home at the same location.
Yesterday, before I attended Aaron Bransky’s “Duluth 101: Duluth on Rails” presentation;
I walked around the Lincoln Park Neighborhood. I found another “Anything Helps” sign under
the new Highway 53 overpass.
I then found this skull graffiti under the new Highway
53 overpass.
I also found a new section of sidewalk, connecting to a
narrower, less maintained, and older section of sidewalk.
Rain was falling from the sky when I waited to take the bus back home. Also, Superior Street was closed for construction. As a result, I waited on West First Street in the rain, without a bus shelter to keep me drier and warmer.

I saw that the NPRC is closed today.
An HRA staff member told me that there were too few
staff members to open the NPRC in a safe way.
Thus, I did my heart-healthy exercise walking at the University of
Minnesota, Duluth.

I found an abandoned sock and a stocking cap.
These 2 abandoned items were on the west side of the Bell
Bank in the Temple Opera Block, Duluth’s Downtown. I tend to find the strangest combinations of
abandoned items in Downtown Duluth.
What I found in the Downtown Duluth ICO and Dairy Queen building, part 2.
In the men’s rest room, I saw that the old electric
hand dryer has additional “art” on the right side. I am reminded of this quote, “Graffiti is
something written on a wall, and, of course, art can be exhibited or produced
anywhere: a wall is just another venue. - Matthew Slotover.”
