We headed to Erie, PA to see three lighthouses we had missed the last time we were in the area.
The first lighthouse was Erie Land. This Lighthouse was built in 1818 along with the Presque Isle Lighthouse and the Buffalo Lighthouse.
These three lights are considered the first American Lighthouses on the Great Lakes. The Erie Land Lighthouse on the shoreline is pretty much in the middle of Erie, PA. Moving on to the Presque Isle Lighthouse, one of the original three,is located on a long peninsula. Presque Isle is actually a peninsula and its' name in French means " Almost an Island". From there we moved on to the third Lighthouse called Presque Isle North Pierhead.

Young boy was so proud of catching this large Sheephead!
They aren't really good for eating, so he released him.
We don't see many of these in Texas!
Even "Speedy" has protection in these neck of the woods!
I want this!
Til next time...........................
