Sixty-five Superior Saloons

Sixty-five Superior Saloons.

USOs: Unidentified stationary objects

Can anyone help me figure out what exactly this might be?  I was thinking of taking a bike ride from Duluth to Grand Rapids avoiding Hwy 2 and thought this road might be nice, but this “thing” has me puzzled.  There’s another one north west a few miles…

What is it?

Pickup Baseball Game

Sunday, July 19 | 3:30 p.m.
Chester Bowl Park

That’s baseball, not softball. This is a pickup game for grownups who can’t remember the last time they felt the ol’ wood smack the cowhide. Pitches will be lobbed, not that anyone who can throw hard will show up anyway.

There’s nothing official about this game, I just got the invite and was told to spread the word. If there’s an organized youth soccer game or something else going on at Chester, the game might get moved to Woodland or something, so it might help to show up on time if you want to be in the know about a possible relocation.

What is this meatloaf pan shaped like?
