How the Coronavirus Pandemic changes everyday life at King Manor

I found two posters about locking doors that have been open before this 2020 Pandemic.

The HRA staff is changing the way that they service residents and apartment applicants.

The farthest that I’ve traveled this year is the University of Minnesota Duluth.

My Fuse Duluth event for 3/12/2020, Part Three

I took more images of the theater dressing rooms.

As the message says, “Do not sit on the countertops”.

The tour took us to the theater storage rooms where many items are kept.

This is an informal meeting room where plans are made and actors socialize with each other.

Our tour guide told the Fuse Duluth tour that this luck star is touched for good luck by actors as they walk upstairs to do their performances.

This would not be a James Buchanan blog without images of my lunch.

My Italian sandwich boxed lunch was good, while I talked to other members of our tour.  I also passed out a few of my business cards to other Fuse Duluth members.

A second construction crane appears at the Vision Northland construction site

Here is the view of the two cranes on the east side of the Rainbow Community Center and North Third Avenue East.  These two cranes will be in view of the Rainbow Community Center for many months.

Here is the view of the two cranes east of Saint Ann's Residence and North Fourth Avenue East.

Duluth’s Rainbow Community Center is closed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

I know of several disappointed people who depended on the Rainbow Community Center for many of their physical and social needs.  They and I feel crestfallen that this closure could last weeks or months.  For some reason unknown to me, the word “coronavirus” is still not recognized by my version of Microsoft Word.

My two thoughts on the Coronavirus Pandemic

While the skies are dark and gray, both literally and figuratively, we should keep smiling to reassure those around us, while uplifting our inner attitudes and spirits.

Whoever is in control of the times, please tell him or her to take these times back.  These interesting times are far too interesting for me.

My Fuse Duluth event for 3/12/2020, Part Two

The Fuse Duluth event then entered the Duluth Playhouse with the large masks of Tragedy and Comedy that were created for the now demolished Lyceum Theater.

The Duluth Playhouse seats are new, thanks to generous donations to the theater.

Many live performances have been presented on this stage.

We were walked backstage to see dressing rooms with many mirrors and lights.

I found these handwritten messages of encouragement on one of the backstage mirrors.  From time to time, we all need these words of encouragement to keep us going on paths of our choosing.
