Last Sunday I headed out with Evelyn, Meg, & Pam for our first group bus tour ever, to spend a week in Wisconsin and Michigan. We flew into Milwaukee and got on the bus there, and we were off. We got our first glimpse of Lake Michigan when we saw the Green Bay. So pretty.
We stopped for lunch, and then were off to visit Eagle Bluff Lighthouse in Door County. It was seriously the best lighthouse tour I think I’ve ever been on, and I’ve been on several. The lighthouses on the Great Lakes are much shorter than the lighthouses we are used to on the Atlantic coast, because the lights don’t need to be seen from so far away. We couldn’t go quite all the way up to the fresnel lens – this is taken through a piece of plexiglass – but I loved that it really did look like the lens in the museum at the Statue of Liberty – just much, much smaller.
