When a Door County Maritime Museum e-mail blast arrived with an invitation to "Be A Lighthouse Keeper for a Day" I jumped at it. My friend Anne Anderson joined me, and on Saturday, May 31, 2014, we arrived at Cana Island Lighthouse at 10:30 a.m., ready to roll up our sleeves and join in the restoration clean up.

In summary, the day was gorgeous, we both took tons of photos, and along the way I was able to add new markers to my website. Read about the restoration project, and visit the new markers here:
