How I would improve the King Manor Residents’ Club

During the next meeting of the King Manor Residents’ Club, I move that the newly elected officers do this to benefit all residents.

 

First, spend about one minute talking about themselves, such as their name and then how long they have lived in King Manor.

 

Second, spend about one minute talking about their qualifications, such as their education, achievements, and experiences to hold their current club positions.

 

Third, spend about one minute talking about their plans for the club.  Will they plan for club events to celebrate national holidays?  Will they start a club vegetable garden?  Will they plan for other events such as a weekly family movie night and getting Netflix for the club, game night such as board games and tabletop role playing-games, setting up a club blog, and trips on the North Shore Scenic Railroad?

 

During each new election, this talk should be required for all office candidates before the vote.

Lakewalk sign


I wonder when this informational sign that was posted in 2018 will be updated.


Lakewalk concrete


South of the Lakewalk and north of the natural rock formations known as “The Ledges”, is a stretch of mature forest that is the dumping grounds of discarded road and street concrete.  I wonder how many pieces of concrete pipes and sidewalks rest in this forest.

Where we should build solar panel paved bicycle paths in Duluth, Minnesota


The Lakewalk bicycle path in Canal Park gets full sunlight.  Thus, this path is an excellent place for SolaRoad solar panels.



The London Road, Lakewalk bicycle path underpass that is east of the Lakewalk Parking lot - Holiday Station gets few hours of full sunlight.  Thus, this path is an abysmal place for SolaRoad solar panels.

An igloo made of lights at Bentleyville 2019


While I was clearing out my Nikon camera’s memory, I found an image that I didn’t post here until now.

Beer Garden at Glensheen


I see that every Wednesday evening in June 2021 a different local brewery will be featured at the beautiful Glensheen Mansion.  I found this sign by the Glansheen parking lot advertising the event.



I see that Tischer Creek beside Glansheen could be used as a location for a Dungeons & Dragons live-action television series.  I also see that according to The Hollywood Reporter, John Wick creator and screenwriter Derek Kolstad is planning to write the scripts for a live-action D&D series for Hasbro & eOne.  That good news makes the D&D gamer me happy.


I found a sidewalk made in 1913 in Duluth, MN.


This sidewalk was made about one year before the First World War.
