This was the first time I visited Muskegon Lighthouse, I parked in the parking lot knowing I was in the right place but still couldn't see the lighthouse. It was only until I got about 10 feet away from it I could actually see it for the first time. Seeing the lighthouse for the first time this way, reminds me how sailors felt seeing it many years ago; knowing they were finally in a safe harbor.
I don’t know why I drove past Agate Falls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, so many times but I am glad I made a point to stop here this time. The Ontonagon River falls 40 feet in a beautiful cascading fashion to give you this beautiful view. The trail to this viewpoint is not for the faint of heart but well worth it.
Some ports are lucky to have more than one lighthouse and Grand Haven, Michigan is one of those lucky places. This beautiful inner lighthouse stands 51 feet tall and was first lit in 1905. I really liked the reflection of the inner lighthouse with the outer lighthouse in the background and of course the beautiful sunset.
