parks

Remember the old wooden castle Playfront park in Duluth? A few similar ones still exist today if you're willing to do a little road trip for it.

Here are almost 30 of the best choices in Duluth and Superior to spend a little time near the water on your next time outside!

I noticed this last week when I was driving through Catlin Avenue in the UWS Campus. A row of bikes was set up with 'City of Superior' written across the front basket. At first I assumed it was something for the college kids, but was surprised to learn today that there are 5 different locations around town that have these bikes...

People often say that parents should outlive their children, but that isn't always the case.  To help those parents cope with the loss of their child or children, there is a national/international network of memorial parks.  One such park is located on the Range and is taking orders for memorial tiles to be placed on a memorial wall.

Here's something I can get behind!  Minnesota State Parks are offering free admission on the day after Thanksgiving, traditionally known as Black Friday.   It's the busiest shopping day of the year, where people rush to shop for big deals...

Wade Bowl Park over the past year has had a complete renovation.  New playground equipment was installed last summer, along with a new state of the art surface.  Unfortunately it didn't stay shiny and new for long.

The weather this Saturday looks perfect with sunshine and temperatures into the 70's.  You couldn't ask for a better day to take advantage of what the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is offering as part of National Get Outdoors Day.

Did you get to see the ice caves this past weekend?  If not you missed out being one of the 12,00 people that did.  If you were planning on visiting today or tomorrow you'll have to postpone due to a winter storm.

Did you get to see the ice caves last year?  I  regret I couldn't find the time to travel to Bayfield and see the amazing Wisconsin Ice Caves.  I just may get the chance this year based on the most recent decision of the US Park Rangers, in fact, keep this weekend open!

Did you get to see the ice caves last year?  I  regret I couldn't find the time to travel to Bayfield and see the amazing Wisconsin Ice Caves.  Original predictions looked good that we may get the chance to visit them again this year.  The verdict has wavered since then, but as of yesterday are once again looking somewhat favorable.

Did you get to see the ice caves last year?  I  regret I couldn't find the time to travel to Bayfield and see the amazing Wisconsin Ice Caves.  They had said that predictions looked good that we may get the chance to visit them again this year, but recent reports are saying that's not the case, yet.

Did you get to see the ice caves last year?  I  regret I couldn't find the time to travel to Bayfield and see the amazing Wisconsin Ice Caves.  As you can see, my daughter and her boyfriend made it and said they were breath taking.  There's a very good chance the ice caves will happen again this year and this time the public will be charged a small fee.
