More pics from yesterday

I was hanging around taking pictures of this bridge when I noticed a cute lighthouse on the far side. I hate driving across big bridges but it was irresistable (and not as bad as I feared-- the bridge is very quiet compared to the ones that bother me.)

The Champlain Memorial Lighthouse today-- inactive since 1926, remodelled a couple of times.
The lighthouse in the past. Lake Champlain is only 1/4 mile wide at this point, the light helped safe navigation through the passage.

Champlain and friends.

La France, gazing at the water. It's a casting of the head of a statue by Rodin.
