I really like it, I had one heck of a time getting it to mount straight, I ended up taking it to my local body shop and paid them 50 bucks to mount it. Now it looks right...lol

Beautiful place.

The wife and I dropped our daughter and SIL off there at 2:00 AM once to catch an Am Track out west to visit friends.

I can say that there's some neighborhoods right around there that I wandered into that I also got out of as quick as possible.

Some cities like Cincinnati were smart enough to restore them.

Other cities, like Columbus, tore them down for a "more modern useful structure." Idiots.

Columbus Union Station. Was located at North edge of Downtown:


Replaced with Columbus Convention Center:


Columbus has effectively been gutted of about 75% of it's history.

Hi folks -

Another lighthouse - this is the Point Iroquois Lighthouse on Lake Superior in the Hiawatha National Forest -



And here is one at Young's General Store in Wawa Ontario -



How about one on top of Brockway Mountain in Copper Harbor?



best regards -
