August 25 Presque Isle

Published by Kip at 8:29 pm under Uncategorized

We had a beautiful warm sunny day today and mid-morning we borrowed bikes from the Portage store coutesy of the Pesque Isle YC and biked slightly over a mile out to the Presque Isle Point Lighthouse. It is still a working lighthouse that stands 109 feet high and we did the 130 steps to the top. The lighthouse keepers home next door was also an interesting stop and is even more authentically furnished with turn of the century material than the one we visited at White fish Point. On the way back we also stopped to visit the “old” Presque Isle Lighthouse. Then it was back to the boat for a late  lunch and a catch up on emails and other items. I baked my final blueberry pie for the trip which we enjoyed after dinner. The wind which was blowing southwest all day has now shifted to the nothwest and turned cool so we should enjoy a nice night. Tomorrow we are off to Alpena.
