2 Things Challenge is Up / Down

This week's 2 Thing's Challenge, up and down, comes to you from Duluth, Minnesota. Canal Park in Duluth to be exact.
No diving down, stay up.
All along the canal between Duluth harbor and Lake superior are these No diving and No Swimming signs. Here, you are not allowed to dive down; you must stay up on the causeway.

The up/down ladder. The orange ladder leading up/down on the waterside from the No Diving sign. This canal leads into the canal from Duluth Harbor to Lake Superior. These ladders I believe are for safety reasons in case somebody falls in. Life rings are also present. Of course a Duluth resident will have better knowledge of all this as the North Metro is located 160 miles south of Duluth, Minnesota.

  3. DL,
    Great addition to the Two Things this week. I had already forgotten my entry and was about to dig up another! Thank goodness D.C. keeps me straight.
    Hope you and your PC are working again.

  4. Excellent shot of that ladder. The contrast between the brightness of the paintwork and the sea is very interesting...Your camera info. is very useful. Do you note down the settings after every shot? I've found it useful when experimenting with my new camera.
