Water Hazard

With all the road construction this summer you can see orange cones everywhere in the Twin Ports.

Yep. Everywhere.

Kozy Crash

Apparently a car ran into the Kozy Bar. I am not making this up. I did not get the whole story.

A Homegrown Tradition: Getting your picture taken with people while enthusiastically giving them thumbs up

Best Homegrown weather since 2002!

Please Stay Off The Rocks!

I have been collecting some funny or odd sign pictures the last year or so, well, signs that strike me as funny or odd, anyway. I guess this could also qualify as a “Where in Duluth?” if anyone wants to play that game …

Homegrown Wizard

Last night Old Knifey, Walt Dizzo, and I won the Homegrown Quiz at Carmody.  The prize?  This wizard.

The wizard (who needs a name) spent the afternoon in the Mayor’s office reviewing the Homegrown Guide (and the City budget).   He’s now ready for the complete Homegrown experience, he’ll need hosts to bring him around to various shows.   If you see him around, feel free to take him elsewhere.  Post your pictures of the wizard to the flicker account.

2010 Homegrown Tags (UPDATED)

Once again, Homegrown has begun, and once again, all you numbskulls will be out there flashing your fancy digicams and/or tapping at your mobile devices, cataloging all the craziness as it happens. And as always, it’s important to properly tag your stuff so that everyone else knows that it exists.

Keeping with the tradition of years past, let’s all use the following tags:

Homegrown Twitter hashtag: #HG10 #HGMF10
Homegrown Flickr tag: homegrownmusicfestival2010

I would also recommend tagging your Flickr photos with HG10 since it’s easy to do and it doesn’t hurt to apply an additional layer of taggish re-enforcement.

I’ll post here again tomorrow with the ever-growing Flickr slideshow of everyone’s shots. Here are links to slideshows from previous years, to get you excited: 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009
