DULUTH, Minn. — Keith Olson was piloting the 27-foot Department of Natural Resources patrol boat through the Duluth Ship Canal, close to the north pier, back into the harbor after a couple hours of checking Lake Superior anglers.
"Big, grumpy guy, plaid shirt, with his family," Olson said.
Olson opened the boat's side window and started waving furiously at the family of tourists on the pier. They all smiled and waved back, even the previously grumpy-looking guy in the plaid shirt.
