FROM THE DESK OF Tracy RAMSAY
With eight hours left to drive to my new home, as my daughter’s cat’s yowling and my young son’s perpetual requests/questions… “Are we there yet?” “I want to stop and eat,” “I have to go to the bathroom.” (again!?!)… set the backdrop to my wandering thoughts, I found myself imagining if it would be possible to find our fit in this new place. And if so, how?
I was leaving a city and home I loved, driving to a house I had purchased sight unseen, and moving to a neighborhood I had never visited, in a city and state I had only been to once. I was excited, nervous, and EXHAUSTED! Exhausted from the months of packing and preparing. Exhausted from the long to-do lists and lack of sleep. But mostly exhausted from the emotions of saying goodbye to longtime friends, co-workers, and family members. Moving gave me a realistic perspective and appreciation for anyone going through a relocation process.
NAs a real estate professional since 1998, I decided to create this guide to help acclimate individuals moving to the Metro Duluth area and to offer an overview of what life here is like.
I have an unapologetic love for this city. I take great pride and joy in showcasing Duluth, and I value every opportunity to welcome someone new.

Over the years she has gained an understanding into the nuances families face when searching for reliable childcare. Motivated by this firsthand insight, Karine established Rochester Poppins, which rapidly became a great success and earned overwhelming support and feedback from the community. Her strong reputation caught the attention of Tracy Ramsay + Partners, who subsequently made her aware of the professional childcare shortage in Duluth. Coupled with the positive response of Rochester Poppins, and recruitment from Tracy Ramsay + Partners, Karine was inspired to come full circle and extend the Poppins legacy to Duluth, her favorite, beloved Minnesota city.
Duluth Poppins is capable of assisting with ongoing, full-time nanny needs or sporadic, occasional adolescent/babysitting services, for area residents and visitors alike. Families that engage Duluth Poppins find the caregiving professionals and helpers to be exceptional and
meet the highest of standards. Duluth Poppins commitment to exemplary service is rooted in Karine’s approachable demeanor, attentive listening and strong communication skills. Now, families in the greater Duluth area can rely on Duluth Poppins for top-notch childcare services, delivered with care and connection.
Dedicated to providing exceptional childcare solutions.
"There is no wi-fi on the lake, but I promise you will find a better connection."

LOCAL CONTRIBUTORS
The house on the cover was designed by nationally-acclaimed, local Architect, David Salmela with engineering by the owner, Paul Johnson of MBJ.
Duluth Photographers: Laura Jean Media, cover photo, Danielle Thralow, page 13 and 57, and Hansi Johnson, page 67.
Duluth Entrepreneurs: Greg Benson, Dave Benson and Tony Ciardelli of Loll Furniture, page 45.
Duluth Artist: Adam Swanson
Adam’s work, named, “Grandma’s Marathon,” is featured on page 2. Adam is a popular painter, muralist, and unabashed environmental advocate. Adam combines his work with scientists and his passion for the environment to create paintings of nature, scenes from Duluth, or statement pieces depicting tensions between humans and the natural world. I’ve had the privilege of working with Adam on a few projects, and he is patient, fun, genuine, and a really good human being. His work can be found at: www.adamswanson.com, www.facebook.com/art. of.adamswanson, and www.instagram.com/adamswanson.
Duluth Philanthropist: Tom Wheeler
The late Tom Wheeler’s love for Duluth was deep, undeniable, and infectious. Tom shared captivating tales of his ancestors making the arduous trek to Duluth by foot to establish one of the city’s first sawmills. As some of the earliest settlers to homestead in Duluth, generations of Wheelers have participated in the city’s growth and development. And so, it comes as no surprise that Tom took great personal pride in the prosperity of Duluth and loved calling it home. Tom was an athlete, businessman, writer, and philanthropist who believed sincerely in giving back to the community that meant so much to him. The Wheeler Fieldhouse, featured on page 21, is situated on land that was generously donated to the city by the Wheeler family.
