Ice Boulders
We’ve had a lot of awesome ice-sheet events on Lake Superior, but I can’t say we’ve had smooth, round boulders. This video by Bob Smitka shows ice boulders on the Lake Michigan shore at Glen Arbor from the polar vortex days.

Couple of “streaming” videos from the cold
This second video is much less lovely and mildly NSFW.
Winter in Duluth
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWxvCRyZ3tY
Hey, it’s -13 degrees! Let’s head to Stoney Point! Surf’s up!
Hey, the water is a balmy 38 degrees, so you’d be stupid not to do this, really.
Video shot Dec. 29 by Erik Wilkie. Music by Evanescence.

The 4ontheFloor – Enough
Shot at Target Field and featuring Miss Sarah Krueger.
This clip is from next week’s episode of MNOriginal, which airs Monday night at 7 p.m. in the Duluth market on the Minnesota Channel 8.1. Also in the episode: Artaria String Quartet preserves and performs classical chamber repertoire, Robert Bly shares three of his poems and Judy Onofrio creates sculptures from animal bones.
Split Rock Lighthouse – Aerial Flyover
This is the first PDD Drone video, shot at Split Rock Lighthouse on Christmas Day. It was only the fourth flight in the drone’s young career, and we are still in the practice mode of getting smooth flyovers and panning when shooting video. We are improving with each flight and I personally think it is a huge accomplishment that the PDD Drone is not sitting at the bottom of Lake Superior … yet. So enjoy this unique perspective of Split Rock Lighthouse and let us know what you think.
The PDD Drone is a DJI Phantom 2 Vision.

Lego Robotics in Duluth!
Exciting Lego Robotics are in store this weekend in Duluth. For years I coached my son’s team, but now given he is working as an Aerospace engineer for Honeywell, I will judge Lego Robotics design. In fact, almost every former team member is now working as an engineer. This is a great testimonial for Lego Robotics. Imagine teams of 4 to 8 children (elementary and middle school) programming and designing robots made out of Legos, a small computer and various sensors!
