It was always a joke that the only places you could move after living in Duluth were: Back to the Twin Cites; Bozeman Mont.; Colorado Springs, Colo.; Seattle, Wash. or Portland, Ore. Add Los Angeles, Calif.; Las Vegas, Nev. and Tempe, Ariz. and that was 2008.

UMD Alumni Composer Concert
UMD Weber Hall
Adult $8 – Senior $7 – Student $5 – UMD Student $3 – Alumni $2
This is new classical chamber music featuring a real PDD’er!
The concert features the music of 4 umd alumni composers: Robert Linnemann, Ryan Rapsys, Nick Mroczek and James Gould. All of the pieces are lyrical, varied and entertaining. Every composition is a world debut! The Gichigami Piano Trio is the featured group, but the umd woodwind quintet and other small ensembles will also play.
So, we were at Park Point on Sunday. It was pretty far away and after a 45 minute walk on the sand we finally realized what it was. Can you tell?

Ever wonder where all the streetcars went? A subsidiary of GM bought them, burned them and put in a few buses and sold them back to the city once they were finally destroyed.
Here is a streetcar map of St. Paul and Minneapolis in 1933!
