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.”


This is my chocolate chip banana bread.


My baker rarely swears.  Yet, she described the banana bread she baked as “damn good”.


The bear has a name!


I think these 2 words say, “I’m Grubs!”  Who would name their mascot bear Grubs?


Duluth 101: Duluth on Rails


Aaron Bransky presents a deep dive into Duluth's rail history, including information on streetcars and inclines.  I see that the social time starts at 5:30 p.m.; while the presentation starts at 6 p.m.


I attended the Italian-American Club’s spaghetti dinner.


This is the American Legion’s front door.



This is the tasty meal that I ate for my ten dollars.


I saw that the Resource Center “Journaling for Wellness” class was canceled today.


This police event might have had something to do with that class cancellation.
