#minnesota flag tournament

I’m curious, did you ever design a flag to represent this tournament?

No, sadly. I’m not sure if you mean to represent the tournament or to enter in the actual contest, but I did neither. The contest was only open to Minnesotans and I heard about it after the deadline to submit had passed. But designing a flag to represent the entire tournament would be really cool!!! The banner of my profile is a flag that was sent to me relating to the tournament, so that’s the closest I have. If anyone wants to do this I’d love to see it <333

#minnesota flag tournament #thanks for the ask!!!#damn i haven’t posted in a long time

Are you planning on doing any other flag tournaments?

Honestly I have no idea... I've been missing running this tournament, so if something comes up I'll let y'all know

But if you're looking for flag tournaments, check out @flagwars because he does a ton of cool flag tournaments and that's where I got the idea to do this tournament in the first place

I googled it once and the only reason why the Great Lakes aren’t called inland seas is because they are entirely freshwater, not salt.

By any other metric they’d be seas. Superior especially (the big one in the upper left) behaves like a small ocean, and has claimed at least 250 ships and over 1000 people. Gordon Lightfoot wrote a frankly chilling song about her that I’ll include here:

Lake Michigan has never fully frozen. Leading to some absolutely terrifying images

Layers of ice created, shattered, and built up like this.

Hey, here’s a picture of that lighthouse in 2015, when we had a polar vortex

I love the Great Lakes, you know how all boats look like shit, like just rusty hulks, you don’t get that on the Great Lakes because it’s fresh water, like the shipwrecks are incredibly well preserved
