Where in Duluth?
Mmm, smoking garlic. I hear it’s very medicinal.
As a side note, does anybody else walk around specifically looking for things to photograph for a “Where in Duluth?” post?

We’re in desperate need of a cheap car. Nothing fancy — just something that runs and can be trusted to get us from point A to point B without too much heartbreak. We’d even be willing to rent something for a while until we can get something else.
So if you’ve got something laying around that you don’t really use, let’s talk. Feel free to contact me via email at adam @ moesewco.com.
From time to time the geeks who comment on this website will get into arguments about grammar, spelling and so on. It doesn’t happen too often, but when it does it kind of excites certain people while it embarrasses and annoys others. Some people just love to show off their mad English skills, while others don’t care if their capable of getting there sentences from here to they’re properly.
With that in mind, this post has been created as a bitching ground for uptight word nerds.
Don’t let this post stop you from creating your own post to showcase public blunders in the future, it just seemed like this type of stuff needs a home base.

Great food. Bad punctuation.

To help this discussion along, we’ve started the “Perfect Duluth Day Writer’s Guide,” as a handy reference to Duluth-related nouns that are frequently botched.
Let your ranting begin.
… but we’re going to be working hard to get rid of our stuff!
Find yourself heading south on 35 this Friday or Saturday? Take the Esko/Thompson exit. Hang a right at the top and you’ll be looking for 34 W. Riverside Drive. (it’s the second road on your left).
We’ll be there from 9-1 on Friday and 10-? on Saturday, and we need to move this stuff! We’ve got bikes, furniture, art, game systems, clothes, etc. After you’ve found your treasure, head into Esko to check out the happenings.
Spreading the word through the hip and well connected PDD community:

I lost my glasses today after getting stuck in the rain on a hike and putting them in my pocket. I took them off while on the trail but we were pretty close to the trail head by Vermilion Road / St. Marie St., by that wonky curve. We then walked across the bridge, turned right onto Lakeview Drive, and walked all the way to Waverly Place and turned left. If anyone has seen them, I would love to have them back, since I don’t have insurance or any money to buy new ones. They have black frames that are white on the inside and edges.
In other news, the thimble berries on the trail are starting to ripen, and there are lots of stands of them all the way up and down the trail!
I’m guessing it’s all the mud from the Wisconsin rivers that is causing our lake to turn a deep shade of brown. I’ve watched it slowly ooze its way across the lake all day. All that sediment can’t be good for anything. I wonder how common an occurrence this is to have this much water coming down rivers this time of year.
Anyone have a favorite campsite at George H. Crosby/ Manitou state park? I always used to go to #5, but want input on other fabulous spots, on the river. Your thoughts?
Thought I’d pass along an update to the early July post regarding parking around the Cathedral on Sunday:
We were all gently reminded today not to park on Wallace or in any illegal parking areas today after mass. The police have informed Father Peter they will start ticketing next week. A nice reminder that sometimes if you call the police, or the source of your problem, you can get things done! Hopefully tickets will work … people are still walking in for mass at 11 a.m. and the mass time was changed to 10:30 a.m. a couple of months ago. I suspect that will continue for a couple of years.
Wednesday, August 3, from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. at the Lincoln Park Skate Shack.
Proceeds go to Twin Ports Action Coalition.
Indian tacos are only $5, dessert frybread is $3 and the new ultimate dessert frybread is $4.
While I was getting coffee at the London Road McDonald’s, I noticed signs popping up from the other side of the fence.
