What is on the 300-398 East First Street Garage?

Even during the last day of June, I see that the Voyageur Lakewalk Inn sign is still standing!  I wonder how much longer that sign will still be standing?  I hope that sign stays where it is now, as a reminder of Superior Street history.

What I found posted on the Fifth Floor King Manor Bulletin Board

I found a new notice for the 2024 summer Duluth Farmers Market.

I bought freeze-dried strawberries at the Lincoln Park Farmers Market!

These freeze-dried strawberries both taste good and are good for your body.

I attended the Lincoln Park Farmers Market at the Harrison Community Center

Here are the signs on 3002 West Third Street – Duluth, Minnesota.

This is the Banana Bread that I bought.

Homeless, my GF is in H

I found this sign next to the Fond-du-Luth Casino, on the west side of North Second Avenue East.

The DTA bus stop at Thirteenth Avenue East and East Superior Street

The old bus shelter is gone, while the new bus shelter is yet to be built.

On June first, I found that the old Plymouth dealership sign (1) and the Voyageur Lakewalk Inn sign (2) were still standing!

Then, on June twenty-third I found that the old Plymouth dealership sign (1) and the Voyageur Lakewalk Inn sign (2) are still standing!

Grandma's Marathon 2024, the end

At the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center, I ate a yummy Hillshire Farm ® Cheddarwurst ®.

I’m using my expensive Journalism degree to give my readers three days of news describing Grandma's Marathon 2024.

Grandma's Marathon 2024, Part 4

I saw a Grandma's Marathon wheelchair participant, who was racing despite the cold wind and soft rain.

I saw someone dressed up as Uncle Sam running Grandma's Marathon.

I saw a Grandma's Marathon event motorcycle at West Superior Street and Fourth Avenue West.  It had a cool reflection on the wet asphalt pavement.

These runners, most of these were walking, are at West Superior Street and Fourth Avenue West.

When I wrote the title, I had typed 2424, instead of 2024.  I wonder how fast runners will be running Grandma's Marathon four hundred years from now.

This weekend is Grandma's Marathon 2024

I plan to watch the many world famous marathon runners and ordinary runners from the sidewalks.

I saw “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes”

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes has a great story and characters.

I found another “this is not New York” sticker.

This unwanted sticker is on a post at the East First Street entrance to the Fond-du-Luth Casino parking ramp. Just what is the message of these stickers meant to be?  I already knew that Duluth is not New York anymore than Duluth is not Boston or Chicago.

Central Hillside Farmers’ Market, the end

This is the Community Mobile Market van that brings yummy food to needy people.

This is the East Third Street welcoming sign for the Central Hillside Farmers’ Market.

“Possessive apostrophes are apostrophes (’) used with the letters at the end of a noun to show ownership over or a close connection with another noun. For example, if you were talking about the tail of your cat, you can add a possessive apostrophe and an s as punctuation to show which noun is the owner.”

 

My cat’s tail

 

Therefore, if there was just one farmer in the market, then “Central Hillside Farmer’s Market” would be correct.  However, as there is more than just one farmer at this market, the headline should read, “Central Hillside Farmers’ Market.”

The June 2024 North Point Resource Center (NPRC) / Rainbow Center calendar was revised.  This shows NPRC closed on Juneteenth National Independence Day.  Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States.  It is celebrated annually on June 19 commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States.  Also, look for the two cute ponies on the calendar.

I found another cobweb on NP 3617.  For reasons unknown to me, small spiders sure do love to make themselves at home on Northern Pacific locomotives.

The packaged food that I ate for my dinner

While I’m aware that reduced price ≠ (does not equal) free, buying my favorite food at a reduced price sure is easy on my wallet.

“....the egg creams of Avenue A in New York and the root beer float....are among the high points of American gastronomic inventiveness.”

National Black Cow Day on June 10 celebrates a delicious ice cream float beverage also known as a Root Beer Float.  That's right, the beverage made with root beer and vanilla ice cream was also called a Black Cow.

Each year on June 7, World Caring Day shines a spotlight on all the ways we connect and show each other how much we care. After all, we should always take time to celebrate the millions of acts of caring we see. All acts of caring, whether big or small are important. Caring is continuous and happens every day through compassion, support, kindness and understanding.
