ABOUT THIS BLOG

You'll find this blog a "writing buffet." I write original posts, re-print a few of my Duluth News Tribune columns and am gradually re-printing all of my Zenith City Online posts about growing up in the western area of Duluth. Sometime in the future, I'll organize those posts so that they're easy to find on my blog. Until then... please read and stay in touch. And... "like" my blog page on Facebook!
