National Lighthouse Day is Friday, August 7.  Did you know that: Michigan 
has around 150 lighthouses, the most of any U.S. state. The first 
lighthouses in Michigan were built between 1818 and 1822. They were built to 
project light at night and to serve as a landmark during the day to safely 
guide the passenger ships and freighters traveling the Great Lakes.
