Valentini's Restaurant

The Photo Twin Ports group got into Valentini's restaurant recently for a shoot. Here is what I captured. One of the owners, Carol, and her neice Alix, graciously volunteered to model for us, and, yes, the primavera dish was fantastic!

Congratulations goes to Tami LaPole Edmunds and Dan Edmunds on the opening of a second store in downtown Duluth!

Upcycled and handcrafted furniture, art, and other one-of-a-kind home accessories are featured at Art in the Alley HomE.  The space is also Dan's workshop where he creates pottery and furniture.  Other items to be found there include a large variety of unique wall art, lamps, rugs, pillows, and tabletop decor.  Products follow the same fun, energetic, and somewhat "funky" style of the original Art in the Alley store located across the street.

March 2nd and 3rd is the annual Snowflake Skijor and Sprint Classic held at the Snowflake Nordic Ski Center in Duluth, MN.  It's a two day dog powered event organized by the Midwest Skijorers.  Each team is racing against the clock with the times from each of their runs on Saturday and Sunday added together to determine the final outcome.  Here is a few photos from the Saturday racing.

Love at the Snoodles V

Snoodles Ceramics Studio

A vase that was made by a local artist and it was not fired yet as Tonya asked her guests to  add to the design!

Love was the theme for this art exhibit. These are a couple of pieces of artwork that local artists created for the event.
There was also fire dancers and an opportunity to paint ceramic hearts and have them fired and sent to you.
