Here are a few photos that didn’t fit into my earlier blog
post about Point Betsie Lighthouse and its restoration.
These photos are a couple of views of the lighthouse
late in its most recent restoration, plus a view from inside the lighthouse
tower.
Check out the photos included with my earlier post to
see a pre-restoration photo (where the top of the tower is white with a red
roof, rather than the post-restoration color scheme of a black tower top),
several views of the lighthouse mid-restoration and an alternate view of the
beach looking the other way out of the tower.
Thanks to Debbie Dubrow of Delicious Baby for
creating and coordinating Photo Friday to link travel photos and blog posts
across the Web.

Thanks everyone!
This is one of my favorite lighthouses. I love being able to walk a mile or more down the beach from the light, and we've been visiting the area for many years (so it feels like a second home to us).
We joined the Friends group so we could keep track of the renovations and do our tiny part to help keep the project going :)

Great photos.
I didn't even know there were lighthouses on the Great Lakes. Of course, it makes sense.
Thanks for teaching me something new!
