Picture of the Day for August 15, 2021

The boat rides to the Apostle Islands would have been a pleasurable trip with the nice summer weather this weekend. Devils Island has sea caves and a lighthouse that was built in 1898, although the lens didn’t arrive until three years later. The plain cylinder tower was exposed to high winds that caused the tower to shake badly which sometimes extinguished the lamp. The structure was reinforced with external braces in 1914 to alleviating the motion problem.
