ABOUT THIS BLOG

A writing buffet...
I write original posts here, re-print a few of my past Duluth News Tribune columns and occasionally re-print some of my Zenith City Online posts about growing up in the western area of Duluth.

I currently am again writing a monthly column for the Duluth News Tribune & include those columns here as well.
