How do you feel when you imagine being submerged in water? Is your inner mermaid thrilled by the idea (wish I could be part of that woooooorld), or do you consider yourself much more of a land creature? If thinking about ships and submarines that are resting peacefully at the bottom of the ocean brings you immense anxiety, you just might have submechanophobia. (Try saying that 5 times fast!)
THE iconic Beachy Head lighthouse by Argus Camera Club member Jeremy Gearing Imaging.
Located on Lake Michigan, White Shoal lighthouse is the tallest lighthouse on the Great Lakes. Some interesting facts about this essential lighthouse. All of the other lighthouses on the Great Lakes have cast iron lanterns. White Shoal uses aluminum. The highly visible red and white diagonal paint is sometimes called Candy Cane, but most prefer calling it the "barber pole" which makes it the only barber pole lighthouse in USA. State of Michigan identifies with the White Shoal lighthouse so much that its image is used on some Michigan license plates. Michigan is only state that tries to save its lighthouses. The first lighthouses in the Great Lakes were in 1850's. By 1900 there were 334 lighthouses. Just 25 years later, in 1925, there were 433 lighhouses. White Shoal was built over a period of time beginning in 1870. We take our basic ceramic lighthouse bank and create, as close as we can, a White Shoal Lighthouse just for you. The cement base shown in the photo would NOT be included. How to teach Children to SAVE

Mural Description Fisgard Lighthouse © 2012 World Art Group / Rachel Perry Materials MATERIAL COMPATIBILITY We strive to help you choose the right material for your wall mural project. Our products are designed to work on ideally prepared surfaces, preferably smooth walls with a high-quality paint and primer. While we do offer materials compatible with varying wall surface types, some paints may inhibit adhesion of peel-and-stick products, and some wall textures may not provide enough surface area to stick; a combination of those two make it even trickier. There are endless combinations of wall paint and wall textures out there and we can’t test all of them. If you're unsure, we recommend ordering swatches of our materials to test adhesion prior to installation. If you believe your wall surface may be a problem, please consider our pasted products, UltraStik™ (pre-pasted) and ProStik™ (requires paste), for a more universally compatible installation or take the necessary steps to properly prepare your wall surface as described in detail below. Modern Paint Formulations: Some modern wall paints can make self-adhesive (peel and stick) murals more challenging to install. Washable, durable, low-VOC and No-VOC paints may contain additives which can inhibit proper mural adhesion. Proper cleaning and dry time of the wall surface with a mixture of isopropyl alcohol (70%) and water (30%) MAY significantly improve the adhesion. However, we highly recommend preparing the surface in advance using a primer/sealer product like Zinsser® Gardz® by Rust-Oleum®, which can be found at most hardware stores. Use this clear coat sealant to cover the area where the mural will be applied to the wall surface. Wait at least 24 hours (preferably longer) before installing the mural. If applying to newly painted walls, wait 10-14 days before installation. Unpainted drywall, or walls with inferior paint applications, may be problematic and need attention before beginning your mural installation. Contact Us if you have questions. Wall Textures: Many walls have been treated with an added decorative texture like orange peel, knockdown, stipple, etc. For these wall surface textures, it is crucial that they are properly prepared and the right mural material is chosen for peel and stick materials. If possible, consider smoothing out your wall texture with a skim-coating of drywall compound before priming and painting; this will give the ideal wall surface with few imperfections. If skim-coating is not an option, sand any rough areas and eliminate as many high spots and ridges as possible, and consider applying a primer/sealer product like Zinsser® Gardz® by Rust-Oleum®, which can be found at most hardware stores. Use this clear coat sealant to cover the area where the mural will be applied to the wall surface. Wait at least 24 hours (preferably longer) before installing the mural. **We aim to address customer concerns such as these and provide suggestions for the best mural experience for our customers. Magic Murals cannot accept, refund or replace returned murals due to incompatible wall surfaces. Ultimately, it is the customer’s responsibility to install a mural according to its instructions and take the necessary steps to properly prepare the wall surface prior to installation.** COMPARE OUR MATERIALS Our materials feature a matte finish for extremely vibrant colors and reduced glare.

Split Rock Lighthouse is located just south of Silver Bay, Minnesota, USA on the North Shore of Lake Superior. The structure was designed by Ralph Russell Tinkham and was completed in 1910 at a cost of $75,000. It is built on a 130-foot (40 m) sheer cliff of anorthosite. The lighthouse was first lit on July 31, 1910. It was built in response to the loss of ships during the famous Mataafa Storm of 1905, in which 29 ships were lost on Lake Superior. One of these shipwrecks, the Madeira, is located just north of the lighthouse. Compare, Great Lakes Storm of 1913. The light was retired in 1969 by the U. S. Coast Guard. Every November 10 the lighthouse emits a light in memory of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald which sank on that date in 1975. So capturing the lighthouse in operation can be a challenge. The next best shot is to wait for a full moon to rise in back of the lighthouse. When that fails use Photoshop!
The first time we visited this Lighthouse, (about 20 years ago) It was about ready to fall into Lake Superior from the severe erosion. The Lighthouse now has been saved and beautifully restored. Getting to this landmark requires quite an adventure; the closest town is about 40 miles and getting there is by logging roads and two-tracks. (the last 4 miles you are driving on snowmobile trail #8) ! Facebook page!
