Monorail Monday
Future World, Epcot
Back in March of 2016, I drove my Mom and Grandpa done to Florida for their Spring stay at my Mon’s place in Lake Alfred. After getting everyone situated and the house opened up I snuck away one day for a visit to Epcot. The International Flower & Garden Festival had started and being this close was an opportunity I could not pass up. I still managed to get in quite a lot of monorail hunting on a single day visit… 🙂
USCG Station, Fort Gratiot, Port Huron, Michigan
Yesterday I shared my after dinner image of the USCG Cutter Hollyhock. Today I present the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse. The lighthouse is North of the Blue Water Bridge at the active U.S. Coast Guard station Fort Gratiot. Before we headed to dinner on Thurday we walked down to the St. Clair river at Lighthouse Park. I was able to capture these images of the lighthouse and surrounding station buildings as the sun was starting to drop below the clouds.
The walk from the parking lot to the beach did not give away the cold wind blowing that evening. I grabbed as many pictures as I could before we started back. It was then we realized are light jackets were not enough in the face of the wind now blowing directly into us. It made for a quicker pace back to the car.

Port Huron, Michigan
The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Hollyhock stationed in Port Huron, Michigan with the Blue Water Bridge into Canada in the background. After a long day at a supplier’s building on Thursday we drove up to Port Huron for dinner with a friend. After dinner I was able to get down to the St. Clair river and get this blue hour image of the Hollyhock docked for the night. Too bad it was probably my last trip to this area as the supplier is closing and our business with them will be done in a matter of weeks.
