We don't seem to have snow the first weekend in December when we light the light. (Well, at least a couple times we had a lot of snow Sunday morning . . .) January 2nd we had a nice load of snow here, and when I checked Michigan City they also had received a nice snowfall. Having nothing better to do, it was time for a road trip.
At our fall work day, we added more lights to help better define the outline. It will be interesting to see how they add to the look of the light. After a lot of years of having little light and being at the corner of the park, we instigated the light being lit in 2001. Then last year the society bought the new LED lights at our prompting, and we spent a couple days getting them placed . I personally believe that after too many years of being overlooked when Washington Park is all lit up in December, the Old Michigan City Light has taken its proper place as the star of the show. All of us in the Hoosier Lighthousing Club are very proud of the part we have played in the effort.
