Geneva On The Lake Lighthouse

Pictured above is the iconic green and white light house located inside the Geneva-On-The-Lake harbor. At one time, it was used to alert ships of shallow water and the shore line. Now it stands dormant still guarding the coastline with my LOGO emblazoned on it for all to see.

Perhaps this very lighthouse was witness to the Edmund Fitzgerald freighter leaving port from Cleveland, Ohio to begin it's final voyage destined for Whitefish Bay in Canada. On November 10th, 1975, as Gordon Lightfoot sang,
"And later that night,
When his lights went out of sight,
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

    That is one small light house. No wonder the Fitzgerald crashed and sank.

    As lighthouses go, it is relatively small.

    I thought that you might have done a photoshop thing on the picture. It is not bad for such a small lighthouse but even better LOTGK publicity! Now I am even suspect with regards to the story itself :)
