… I could find a cool place to live!
I’m new to Duluth (or will be in the next two weeks), from Winona, and am looking for a place to live. Does anyone know of a good renter, roommate, sweet couple that has a spare room to lease to this young, tuba-playing choir teacher? My first teacher day is August 27, and I’m hoping that I won’t be spending it camping in the station wagon!
I’m in my late 20s, quiet, responsible and respectful, not a partier, love good music, good beer, and creating art!
If you know anyone who is looking for a young professional to rent to, please let me know.

Jenna and Michael Barrett got married in early June on a simply beautiful day! I couldn’t wait to share this video with you all, so as soon as the couple had seen and approved it, I headed over here to show you! Enjoy!
At 319 W. First St. is an 8-month-old Asian restaurant specializing in Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisine called Oriental House. My spouse and I stopped by this evening to try it out. With the recent PDD post on Pak’s, I figured the power of social media would get the word out on this little gem of a restaurant since I don’t think many folks know about it.

Interview with Donna Ennis Chief Osaugie Descendant
This has come up on PDD before, but I did this interview with Donna Ennis today and I thought it was something to share. Romance, intrigue, ancient ceremonies, and even a shameful grave desecration make an appearance in just 8 short minutes of community radio.
I haven’t posted in awhile, it’s been a busy summer this gives you a little idea of where I’ve been, I guess.

Starting in 2008, Loll staff has taken a field day each year and gone out to plant trees. All of us here are concerned with keeping our environment not only vibrant, but clean, healthy and beautiful too. We try to find places that are in need of watershed restoration and by providing some of what’s needed in the form of trees and shrubs we become a constructive part of restoring our local ecosystem.
Loll Designs employees got together earlier this summer to do some tree planting up at Harley Nature Center. Take a look at the video of all the fun.
Hey all! I’m working on putting together the weekly events for September through November for the PDD Calendar. If you have or know of a weekly event that you’d like to publicize on the calendar for all or some of that period, please let me know and send me a picture related to that event. Mention in the description how long the event should run.
Thanks for your input and your help in making this calendar a great resource for our community.
There’s a new restaurant in the Denfeld area at 4131 Grand Avenue that I can only describe as Thai fusion. It’s called Pak’s Green Corner and it’s got a lot of traditional Thai dishes, but also it’s got dishes like Poutine and a Phad Thai burrito on its takeout menu. The sit-down menu had even more unconventional takes on traditional Thai dishes that truly made my mouth water.
I am looking for a place to recycle old scratched CDs here in Duluth. Like half of the people my age, we burned tons of CDs years ago and now I have piles of them but can’t bring myself to put them in the garbage, there’s got to be a better place for them to be disposed. Any ideas?
Race results are in and photos have been posted. It was a bit chilly up at Pike Lake for the 26th Annual Brewhouse Triathlon but competitors seemed faster than ever.

So, Beck is releasing a new album in December. But it isn’t an album per se, it’s sheet music. My question being, when does the Duluth Does Beck’s Mystery Album show happen? January?
Just throwing it out there.
