Light house in the storm

A light house was made for stormy days and nights. To keep us from the rock and shoals. This is Betsie Point on Lake Michigan. The iron ore and car transports of the big ships traveling back and forth on the lake. They needed the light houses.

Today GPS has made all of the light houses obsolete and that is just sad. What will we paint? I know some community's are saving the lighthouses. Moving them or restoring them.

There are so many in the Great Lakes region as well as the coast of the United States. Pick one out and paint it or draw it you will learn so much. Add a stormy sky or a calm night sky. Have some fum with it. Pick out a calendar with lighthouses ( careful with copy-write laws!) sketch it out then add your own details.

Oh yes a big shout out to my granddaughter she graduated last night! So proud. Be a lighthouse to your family sis! Love ya!

Keep your brushes wet and pencils dry.
