“Hey White People …” Un-Fair Campaign

I’m no longer in Duluth, but I found out about a campaign going on there right now and I couldn’t be more encouraged by the people and message behind it, including Mayor Ness.

Duluth – Onigamiinsing

I’ve since moved away, but I love coming back to visit my hometown of Duluth. I made this little video one evening this summer at Leif Erikson Park, I thought some of you might enjoy.

Duluth Trails

I took this video on my first trip along the Congdon Trail earlier this month. What a beautiful, short and highly recommended hike! A great place for a perfect Duluth day. I’d like to make more videos of Duluth’s waterways (besides the big lake). Any suggestions?

Duluth’s Goat Hill Neighborhood

Does anyone know about the history of West Duluth’s “Goat Hill” area or how it got that name?

No human centipede here, just an elephant and a hare…

My wife and I will be in Duluth tomorrow (Saturday) to sign copies of our children’s book ‘ELEPHANT and HARE.’

Northern Lights Bookstore (Canal Park) from 12:00 – 1:00 PM.

Watch our promo trailer here.

For the kiddos!

I just wanted to share with you all a book my wife and I published called Elephant and Hare. She wrote the story based a Maasai folk tale her grandmother told her when she was a little girl growing up in Kenya. I drew the pictures.

It went on sale this morning at our website: LetsGoSafariKids.com

Cheers!
