I’m on vacation in Duluth right now and I’m staying down at canal park. Around 5am I went down to the canal to watch the American Mariner leave. Walking to the canal someone yelled out of the SUV to “go fuck myself” When I was walking back two teens got out of the same SUV and approached me. They got in my face and physically blocked me from leaving in both directions. I tried pushing past them but they blocked me. I just told them I wanted to go to my hotel but they just said they’ll get me. At the same time they’re were insulting me and threatening to beat me up and kill me. They kept following me back to the hotel and threatened to break all of my camera equipment. Finally they backed off and I could escape to my hotel.

I’ve been going to Duluth now for years and this has never happened to me. The whole night the parking lot next to the canal was full of cars and people doing burnouts

Anyone else hear a loud bang at 1:02am in Lincoln Park area on 10/5/2024? Sounded like a cannon. Woke me up. Probably didn't help my nervous system that I just watched Civil War.

Hi everyone!

I go to UMD and my sorority is doing some fundraising in the form of fall photoshoots! Two of our girls are putting their cameras and their photography skills to good work by offering $10 fall photoshoots to the duluth area. Each session is marked for about 15 minutes, but could definitely be extended! We’re happy to do family’s, headshots, senior photos, couple photos, or anything else! We're also willing to come to your preferred location, anywhere outdoors. We would so appreciate the support and you would get some super cute pics from it! If you're interested either message me or sign up with the link below :) https://forms.gle/E6AFLo4EYtBE3wzC6

Is Dubh Linn still the only place to watch the Loons play?

I just got myself a board and now all I need are some good locations people typically go surf at. Does most people just choose random spots where the waves seem good or is there designated areas surfers go to.

I'm visiting for a friend's wedding and was wondering what was the cheapest way to get around?

I am coming up for 4 days on Monday the 7th. Haven't been to Duluth for a few years and would love your go-to spot!! Duluth is one of my favorite places in Minnesota. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Hello! I’m looking to see what are some places in Duluth that have good menu items for a vegetarian. Looking for more places to take my daughter out to and hoping that I’m just missing some hidden gem restaurants with menu items that might work for her. Thanks!

Please let me know if someone is selling their bid to Grandma’s Half Marathon!

Hello everyone,

With the colder days finally here. I wanted to get my furance looked over before I fire it up. Any recommendations for a cheap inspection? It went out on me last year and the guy said it was on its last leg so I want to make sure it's good to go for this winter.

Thank you!

Hey y'all, are there any decent places to rent here that are under 1k for a single person? Doesn't need to be huge. Would appreciate it if it was close to a bus stop of some sort for transportation purposes (but that is not essential) and okay with a small house cat.

A friend of mine wants to move here from Floodwood. I usually use Facebook Marketplace but I wanted to reach out to y'all just encase someone knows something better than what's on the marketplace.

I have a job that I’m relatively happy with, but I hate having to wake up at 4 a.m. for it. Ideally, I’m looking for a job with a four-day, 10-hour shift schedule that starts no earlier than 7 a.m. and ends no later than 1 a.m. I have experience in assembly, CNC operation, manufacturing, warehouse work, prep cooking, basic construction, and other general labor positions. I’m a fast learner, so I’m open to new opportunities. However, I won’t consider driving jobs, sales positions, or anything paying less than $23 per hour. So far, nothing on the job sites has caught my eye, so I thought I’d post here to see if anyone has leads that aren’t on Indeed. I know I’m being extremely picky, so I don’t have high expectations but it never hurts to ask!

I live nearby 4th street auto and I just saw them tearing down the gas pumps. Any reason they’re getting rid of them?

Just signed up for grandmas marathon and am looking for lodging but every hotel I’ve looked at so far is already booked. Is that normal this early already?

Thankfully I have family in Minneapolis so will be staying with them a few days before the race but was hoping to have closer accommodation for Friday night.

Edit: called a few hotels and rates have been in the 500+/night range. Is that just the price or is there any chance I can find cheaper if I look closer to 44 minutes away.

Planning on trying my luck either he forms but hoping those don’t sell out before I get a chance

Does anyone work at WM or know someone at WM or have a number for a human being at WM? I’m in a hell loop of automated phone messages and chat bots. Missed garbage pickups, no resolution, smelly garbage. Thanks.

Is there anyplace in the Duluth/Superior area which sells appliance parts? I don't need to call out a repair tech. I just need a door seal for my dishwasher. Thank you.

I am looking at purchasing a home but I am confused about how realtors work now. I am wondering if someone can break this down for me in a simple way. If I hire a realtor do I need to pay them, do we negotiate a price or do they still get 3% commission on the sale (paid by the sellers agent)? I think the sellers agent gets 3% from the seller still correct? I've heard conflicting information from a couple realtors and would love some clarity on this.

Looks like Lester golf course has a group devising plans for it again.

We see calls for housing relentlessly, but when an option comes up with copious land to put housing, we have groups come up opposing eliminating golf courses. Bear in mind that within the twin ports area, we have at least six other golf courses to choose from. Do we need to save it with so many other choices out there and a proven trend of non viability? If this was such an important asset, why weren’t people using it enough to make it profitable?

Avid key player here. Curious to see if anyone knows where I can find an electric organ in town? Could be in a church, anywhere in public, or your grandparents dusty basement! Looking to buy! Preferably a Hammond but others are welcome to suggestion

I always feel weird going in that store all the employees just seem off one of them is always staring daggers at me. Maybe I’m the weird one?

Hey everyone! I am learning greek with an online tutor and looking to enrich my learning with a speaking partner. I dont have my A1 but I have a good foundation for small talk.

I am aware there is a greek orthodox church, does anyone know if they have a language group?

Ευχαριστώ φίλες και φίλοι!

Hi! I’ve been in Duluth since 2018 and I have yet to find a stylist who can not only cut my curly hair but also style it at the end of the cut.

I have been to Uranz, the art of hair on 1st and great clips so far. Many times they have said they specialize in curly cuts, but then at the end of the service they would brush out my hair, blow dry it, and overall just make it super frizzy before leaving the salon. I once got a cut and highlight and the stylist literally frizzed my hair out so bad at the end I didn’t even know if I liked the highlights and cried on the way home because it looked like a white poofball. So, from my experience it’s so hard to know who is ACTUALLY a specialist in curly hair. So if anyone knows someone who can cut 3A/3B hair in Duluth, please help a girl out because I’m struggling :(

TLDR; Does anyone know where I can get a good curly haircut in Duluth?? (3A/3B hair)

Hey all!!

Welp, as the title states, I have been TRYING to get Essentia to send over my Brain MRI Images to my other providers for continuation of care and they have not sent them to ANYONE yet. This has been since probably one of the worst ER visits of my life on August 10 of this year. (but that’s a whole other story…)

Since 8/9 I have been living in intense chronic pain, tightness, light/sound sensitivity, on/off potential CSF fluid leaking, either having a migraine or being on the edge of one, etc. It’s to the point I can’t maintain my social life, my job(s), or even just basic activities of daily living to the extent needed. (and don’t get me started on bills…) Being in my mid-20’s and having dealt with these issues for almost 6 yrs post-MVA, this is probably the worst and most debilitating flare I’ve had yet. I am just trying to get back to a semblance of normalcy…

I have called Essentia, I have called records release numerous times, at least THREE of my providers who are actually trying to find answers have tried to retrieve them, etc. ALL have been unsuccessful in receiving anything beyond the BS report that was given to me.

Totally get that they have to pay for their Billion Dollar Death Star somehow… But billing $4,700 for an MRI (where I had to advocate 6+ times for how much pain I was in) and in total billed $6,800!?! For absolutely no relief, no answers, and in more pain than I walked in the doors in, like 6-7 hours later!?! Doesn’t seem ethical or like this follows the ethics of medicine.

Was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue or if you know of any solutions here? (I reallyyyyy don’t wanna have to be a stern a**hole to get them…)

TLDR: Essentia builds Billion Dollar Death Star only to exorbitantly charge patient(s)while offering little to no relief at all. (if not making the condition worse) To which the patient decides on continuation of care else where. But wait!! Essentia refuses to send over the images (only sending reports) for an MRI they billed $4,700 for… SOOO, how does one, or can one, go about politely strong arming their images out of Essentia’s death grip so they can receive continued care that will actually help their almost 2 month migraine/pain flare?

Anyone have recommendations on pools for swimming laps? I used to go to the YMCA in Hermantown but the laps were always all full and the cost wasn’t in my budget. Are there any other pools? Any schools with open swim for the general public? Also if there are any swim clubs, I’d love to make some friends! Thanks y’all!
