I caught your mention of Lighthouses, I sure like those. There is one between Silver Bay and Two Harbours that is also called Split Rock lighthouse. I have not been lucky enough to find one that allows people to tour.

Brink, I know it has no bearing to the areas Lightfoot wrote about, but there is a very cool lighthouse in San Diego - The Old Point Loma Lighthouse. It's no longer in use, but has been refurbished and furnished as it would have been back in the late 1800's when it was active. You can go inside and look around - it's pretty cool. From the grounds you can see the Pacific ocean to the west, islands belonging to Mexico to the south and, finally, the San Diego Bay and the city skyline to the east. It's a beautiful spot and one I take all my out-of-town guests to visit. If you want to tour a lighthouse, there's a place to go
