Let's go on an adventure!

Let's go on an adventure! Starting feel a little like the crazy cat lady shut in... I decided it was time for the Spawn and I trek out and see a new sight. McGulpin Point Lighthouse it was!  It's not that often that it's sunny and 45 degrees November 28th in Northern Michigan, we had make the most of what will probably be one of the last nice days for 2020! The wind was icy and Lake Michigan was angry... But, there were beautiful sights be seen.    I have say, I found it a little odd that this particular lighthouse isn't actually the water, instead, it's a hill and through some trees from the shoreline.... It makes me wonder if that is what the shore line looked like in 1868 when it was first constructed. |

I'm betting that shoreline has barely changed in all those years.

I went house hunting with my dog, the "nice house" we saw on the internet turned out to be a "burned out" shell of a home.

TicklePlease has a great point. Another is that the lighthouse was built on the hill to reduce the cost of construction while obtaining the needed height to be seen from the distance. Maybe the builders thought that shoreline erosion might also be an issue. The trees would have been controlled while the light was the means of navigation. It sounds like you had a great day away.

I don't think it was moved... This lighthouse was actually privately owned up until 2009. I did some researching this morning and found some old photos online, it looks like the trees weren't always there the way they are now, they would have had a clearer view of the lake.

You had me at the Lighthouse. I have to drive a few hours to see one here The Light is shinning and she is lonely and waiting in the darkness.

Oh, is that the Mackinac Bridge in the background? I did that boat tour of the bridge while I was there in the summer of 2019 and wowsa, totally recommend it to anyone! Not sure if it's the same idea but here in Delaware, we have a few lighthouses that are set back into the land and it's for triangulation/alignment purposes... apparently if the captain follows the correct channel, the lighthouse lights on the edge of the water and the ones back inland will all line up, and the captain will see one light. If he gets off course, they'll notice because then they'll see two lights!
