Introducing "The Zenith Perspective"

So this little blog of mine is mostly going to be a photo-diary revolving around my life in Duluth, MN as I attempt a post-secondary education. Duluth is nicknamed "The Zenith City." 
Zenith basically means the point above a location. It can also mean the point of culmination, which I believe is the point we all are working towards...the ultimate goal of life. The word zenith derives from the Arabic expression سمت الرأس, which means "Direction of the Head." 


I depart for Duluth on Thursday, but until then I leave you with the words of Duluth bluegrass band Trampled by Turtles:


We can lie like sinners
Breathe the air like children
And you could lead and I could follow
All those times are gone
Still I like the quiet
Of Duluth in the winter
In the sacred bond
There's no place like home.
