Although the day was cooler than it has been, the closer to normal temperatures still allowed some great hiking weather to explore the parks including this waterfall on the Amnicon River with the covered bridge.

After the first below freezing temperature of the fall, the heat from an old cook stove would fell good but cooking or backing in one would not be easy.

Perched on a bluff 76 feet above Green Bay’s waters, a third-and-a-half-order Fresnel lens in the Eagle Bluff Lighthouse was first shown on October 15, 1868. The fixed-white beacon was visible for sixteen miles in clear weather. Because the light tower was the highest point on the bluff, it was often struck by lightning which traveled the the circular iron staircase damaging furnishings and walls so it was a good thing it was a sunny day when I climbed the staircase.
