Crisp Point Lighthouse

This is the lighthouse the infamous Edmund Fitzgerald was desperately trying to reach.

This is another 'honeymoon' photo. We were on a tour boat that ran along the Pictured Rocks shoreline. The rock has six-inch to fifteen-inch layers, each representing 10,000 - 25,000 years of time. Note the one tree is on a mini-tower of rack that is very fragile at its base. Rangers tell us it has... Sign in to see full entry.

Sunrise On Superior

Another 'honeymoon' shot. Usually, I would not be awake at 5:45 am, but since we were camped along the big lake, I had to take the shot when I saw this sunrise! Sign in to see full entry.
