I was just flipping through channels and the History Channel was showing a show called "Back to the Blueprint." The episode that was on at 11:30 AM eastern this morning was "Lighthouse" it was about the restoration of the St. Clair Flats Rear Range. They showed some of the new seawall being built, and how to repoint the bricks in the tower, and how cast iron parts are made. It was a preaty good 30 minute show. I have looked, but can't find when it will be repeated.

HOW did I miss that? My brother's TV has had THC on all day (never mind he's been downstairs), and the lighthouse show happens to come on during the one time I went downstairs. mad

Thanks for the info, Eric. I will look for it; it's bound to be repeated.

According to the HistoryChannel.com website, today was the premiere of that episode. I'm a regular watcher of History Channel, but don't think I've ever seen this series.

No doubt more opportunities will come around to see this one again.
