The tour’s final stop in Duluth was at a rose garden built over the highway. The flowers —6,000 of them — still showed their true colors.

The Mower County contingent’s itinerary included a visit to the historic Congdon Estate in Duluth. It has a 27,000-square-foot mansion that is now a museum operated by the University of Minnesota-Duluth.
