I'm thinking Duluth is off the beaten track ... really off. I have an odd interest in spending at least one winter in such a place. But unless I could afford to hire some old boy local to bring me up to speed whenever I had trouble, could be pretty rough.

On some of the Google Earth photos you can see some big ass ships. I used to hop freights in various parts of the US, is quite a trip, you see a view of the nation that's not often seen, well, unless you take AmTrack a lot. Would love to ride from Duluth to the Atlantic. I think I would, might be some serious sea sickness available. I recall some large ass rolling waves on Lake Ontario.
