Map of Duluth Playgrounds

Living in a new city with kids means finding playgrounds is a big necessity.  Unfortunately, I had trouble getting a list of playgrounds only.  Not wooded areas, not hiking trails, but areas with slides, swings and such.  I was excited to finally get my hands on a list of playgrounds from Duluth Parks Department but not knowing the city by heart meant I still didn't know where to try.  Soooo, I made my very own google map of the locations the parks department listed on their handout.  I figured I might as well post it here so I could share it with anyone else who needs such.
