We last visited OSU's Stone Lab on Gibraltar Island on a very, very hot and sunny day last summer.
I loved the view of Perry's Victory & International Peace Memorial at Put-in-Bay from Gibraltar Island, much as I enjoyed the view of Gibraltar Island from the top of Perry's Memorial.
I'm looking forward to visiting the Stone Lab this next week, although I hope I won't have to swim on down there like this pup I caught enjoying a dip off of Gibraltar's shore last year!
(Detroit experienced unprecedented flooding on Monday, with many places in the metro area getting nearly 6 inches of rain in the course of an hour or so. Portions main highways south, like I-75 and M-39 that I regularly use when traveling to Ohio, remained closed as of Wednesday afternoon).
Check out my story about our previous visit to Stone Lab to learn more about the lab and its important scientific work and research on Great Lakes ecological concerns and issues like energy production and conservation
