Last week we spent a lot of time with our son, as he took a week off before starting a new job. On Monday we took a North Shore Scenic Railroad trip up the North Shore past Congdon Park and back. We also enjoyed a cruise on the Vista Star, which took us around the Duluth Harbor. The excursion lasted an hour and 45 minutes and, as it was on a Tuesday, the cost was only $5. Yes, they have $5 Tuesdays, and it is a great experience for those who have never been or haven’t been on the lake for years.
