    PDD has a lengthy list of “References to Duluth in Popular Literature,” by the way, for those interested in nerding out further.

    Both Jim and I had fun nerding out on that great list of Duluth references in popular literature. Thanks, Paul!

    Also, there’s this.

    There is a Little Girl Point (vs. Bay in “Gatsby”) north of Ironwood.
