Tweed Museum of Art on the University of Minnesota Duluth Campus
David decided to go with is wife Dolly on her weeklong business trip to Duluth, Minnesota. He didn’t usually go with her on these trips and she was required to travel quite a bit for her job, but David had an Aunt that lived in Duluth and he hadn’t seen her in years. He thought that this would be the perfect opportunity to do so. His Aunt Edna thought it was great idea too and was thrilled that he wanted to visit. She also loved the idea of seeing Dolly again, whom she had only met once. And Dolly enjoyed the idea of David coming along because she would enjoy his company and would also like to see Aunt Edna, who had invited the couple to stay with her in her home. However, the grouping of Duluth hotels that her company members were staying in were extremely close to where many of the buildings would be so she preferred that they stay there. Aunt Edna understood and David agreed as he did not want to be a burden to his aunt. He also liked the idea of spending his mornings alone in the city and maybe so some exploring by himself.
Aunt Edna was fine letting David enjoy some time alone in the morning, however each afternoon she took him somewhere and showed him all around the city. They even crossed the John Blatnik Bridge that led into Superior, Wisconsin. They also went to the Tweed Museum of Art, which was located on the campus of the University of Minnesota Duluth and David was impressed with the permanent collection. He thought it was particularly impressive for a college museum. Aunt Edna told him that she loved to visit it. David and his aunt had a great time together and were able to spend plenty of quality time with each other. The only afternoon that Dolly was able to spend time with them was the second to last day of their trip. The three of them took a drive out to Lake Superior and had a beautiful picnic. And even though Dolly worked most of the time they were there, both of them enjoyed their stay and decided they should visit more often.
