My sister in-law asked if I would like to replace an old worn down lighthouse she had bought years ago. She asked if I could make it look similar to her favorite one, Big Sable Point Lighthouse in Ludington MI. They have a pond on there property and it has a small island on it, the perfect place for the lighthouse.

  • Been to almost all lighthouses in Michigan, Michigan has the most shoreline of any state in the union. Dream of visiting all Great Lake lighthouses.
