As you can see in the lower left there is a TV station logo on this picture. This is cheating. I was so busy passing out my trading cards I forgot to take a picture of Duluth’s Pridefest at Bayfront Park. I snapped this on the TV tonight as I remember these colorful balloons. In fact everything about this event was colorful. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone more observant caught a real rainbow during the shortlived showers that hit Bayfront.
I passed out several hundred cards and was impressed with everybody’s good cheer. Over half the folks who got my cards were from outside of Duluth so I asked them to show them to other folks they met and ask who this guy Harry was. My uber volunter four years ago insisted I attend. Everybody knew him and after I passed out my cards this year I felt like I was pretty well known too. Snow sculptures pics are a very nice way to say hello. I was there from 1 until a little after 3 when I had to race off for a rehearsal for a duet with my daughter at church tomorrow. Shes the one who has the pipes and studied and sang opera but I have all the high sustained notes. I’m cringing a bit thinking about soldiering through this (I listened to myself on my cell’s recorder) but I’m getting immune embarrassment. Being on the Duluth School Board has left me with pretty thick skin.
