On the Catwalk

I was left behind by the family!!

I know, you're not supposed to climb up to the catwalk, but I couldn't resist. The catwalk leads out to the Michigan City lighthouse and was used by keepers to stay above the waves in bad weather.

Is this the lighthouse that was covered in ice that you took pics of? Very cool perspective and makes you appreciate what it must be like trying to get to the lighthouse in a storm.

Thanks!

Woodendesigner: I was here in the winter, but the ones covered in ice were about an hour north in Michigan.

Muledriver: Joe - you should have let me know, I would have met you there for a shoot!!!!
