Gene Hicks Gourmet Coffee--Ely Bound
I just had to acknowledge all of my customers who visit my home town of Ely. Many of them take time to say “Hello” while I’m stocking the shelves at Zups Food Market or Northland Market. I always enjoy the conversation and like to be able to put a face to a customers’ name. For those of you who have never heard about or been to Ely, MN---- It sits next to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Northern Minnesota and borders Canada. We are about 2 hours from Duluth and about 4 hours from Minneapolis/St. Paul. Although we are definitely a small town tourist area, Ely has been able to maintain its’ legend of being family oriented. Ely is a town that grabs your heart and makes you want to return! While canoeing attracts some people, Ely also offers many lakes where motors are allowed. Many travelers come to enjoy the peacefulness of the Superior National Forest. Ely is known as the “End of The Road” as all highways end just outside of town. Go any further and you’re at the edge of a lake! The accommodations range from modern to rustic to campsites.
