was in January 2008. I interviewed for an internship at the University. Due to other obligations and limited flight options in and out, I stayed a couple of nights and was able to do a little sight seeing in spite of the minus 17 degrees (F) temperatures! I was told that it had been a mild winter, only 40 inches of snow by that time.

I stayed in the Radisson (Top of the Harbor restaurant and all) and walked (indoors) through the skywalk, which connects the hotel to other parts of the Duluth downtown. Clever people! Staying indoors and still getting out and around.

I will upload a picture I took from one part of the skywalk that goes over a street.

Also recommend Tuerkes German shop – chocolates, Christmas decorations, coffee!

Enjoyed the campus and noticed that most of the buildings on the campus are also connected, out of the cold, through underground hallways.

Brrr…

was in January 2008 – I was there for two days, one night. Stayed at the home of one of my niece’s and had an interview for an internship. Would like to go back for a vacation some day. The land seemed flat and there was a hint in the air of the salt breezes….

Was in January 2008. I interviewed for an internship in Portland, so flew into Eugene to stay with my sister in Cottage Grove. The greens in Oregon are so green! Really a deep color. I enjoyed the visit, and though only in Oregon briefly, have a better idea of the area between Eugene and Portland. Hilly, mountains in the distance, logging remnants, moisture and friendly people. Gray skies,too, while I was there!
