Picture of the Day for August 21, 2022

People might take a boat ride on a nice Sunday summer afternoon around the Apostle Islands in Wisconsin, including Long Island even though it is no longer an island, but is now part of a peninsula that stretches nearly eight miles out into Lake Superior, creating a natural breakwater for Chequamegon Bay. At the end of Long Island is the Chequamegon Point Lighthouse, which is a  square, white steel room sitting on steel legs and is topped by an octagonal lantern with a red roof that was first lit in 1897.
