S.T. Crapo Lighthouse

Unread post by Bookworm »

OK, there isn't such a lighthouse. It is really the newest of the Presque Isle Lighthouses, but there are a number of colorful artifacts from S.T. Crapo on display both outdoors and in the tower entryway. Speaking of the tower, did you know there are 139 steps to the top? My footprints (up and down) are on each one!
