At Carlton Peak, on the Superior Hiking Trail, the nephews opted for the road less traveled: a pattern repeated throughout the day wherever there were rocks.

En Route to Gitchee-Gami
Our Superior Hiking Trail hike included a ridge trail looking out towards Lake Superior: Cook County 1 to Temperance River, then the Gitchi-Gami trail back to Bluefin Bay for the night.
Full of Life
Nephews, full of life, Bluefin Bay (where we’re staying), north shore of Lake Superior, parents, uncles, and a pumpkin looking on.
Blustery Duluth Walk
It was a blustery walk across the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge back to our hotel after dinner.

Sinister Reflections
Played with mirrored surfaces at the Guthrie on my walk to meet a friend to go for a walk. The repetition of the George Bernard Shaw panel took me to a sinister place where a pacifist playwright was transformed into a Dear Leader.
Five Watt Earworm
Stopped at Five Watt Coffee for a cuppa. “California Dreamin” was playing in the background and inevitably became an earworm. On the way out, a red elevator lobby demanded my attention.
Chairs in a Park
On our walk: the Fairfield Chair Company had set up a pop-up showroom in Gold Medal Park for some interior decorators.
Tallest Buildings
Cycled downtown to pick up meds. Before cycling back, looked up at the Foshay Tower (1929) framed by buildings of the IDS Center (1972). The Foshay was the tallest building in Minneapolis at 447 ft (607 ft including the antenna mast) until the IDS Tower (792 ft) was built.
