The leaves are just starting to turn and looks like we're in for another gorgeous fall. With the recent rains, the waterfalls up the North Shore are spectacular.
The bird count is going on at Hawk Ridge and on a good day you might see thousands of hawks, eagles, osprey, etc. Birding experts are generally available on the Ridge to answer questions. It's a great way to spend the afternoon, if only for the Superior view.
Hard to believe that we're already planning the Holiday Tour on Dec. 2nd. It's the first time all the eight Historic Inns of Duluth will be on tour together, decked out in their holiday finery. The Ellery House family string quartet will be playing at our inn. Check out our website for more information: www.elleryhouse.com
Joan plays first violin in the Duluth-Superior Symphony Orchestra and is busy preparing for the upcoming concert Sept. 29. They've remodeled the stage and the shell for optimal acoustics. This will be the first time for the new sound and Joan's excited and hopeful that for the first time you might be able to hear the violins over the horns. www.dsso.com for more information.
That's all for now on the good life in Duluth,
Joan and Jim
