Thursdays picture perfect deal...


The picture...

This past summer the hubby and I took a walk through Split Rock Lighthouse State Park.  This is a picture of the tower that houses the light.  "In 1905, a punishing November gale (the kind Lake Superior is famous for), claimed the Edenborn and the Madiera (a barge the Edenborn was towing) as well as five other ships, within a dozen miles of the Split Rock River. The tragic sinking of these ships fueled the demand for a lighthouse. The fog signal building and lighthouse were completed in 1909 and commissioned one year later. For 59 years, the keepers at Split Rock warned ships away from the rock and treacherous North Shore with its 370,000-candlepower beacon. In 1971, the federal government deeded the lighthouse station to the State of Minnesota to be operated as a historic site." - MN DNR

I love to read your comments, but due to spamming I have had to turn on the word verification again. Sorry for the extra step.
