Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse 1889 (Picture and History)

Mackinac Lighthouse 1889
See in Gallery for Purchase

This is a picture taken a week or so ago while driving downstate. History is something that tell us about our past and can often tell us about our future. One might even say human behavior on a macro level is patterned and repeated throughout history. 

The difference is that we advance as a people and we can learn from history so as to improve our future. We learn, develop and grow and with luck successful adapt to environmental changes.

For example, this is a lighthouse that tells a story of some of the dangerous history of being in the wilderness like this. It also tells a story of economic and commercial activities on the Great Lakes.
