On a beautiful day to be on the water we visited the Apostle Islands. We chose a 3 hour tour (Yes, we sang the Gilligan's Island theme song under our breath several times.) to see the 22 islands in Lake Superior. All seven lighthouses are now automated. However, the National Park Service and some local organizations are restoring a few of them as museums. Also the National Park Service just finished restoring a commercial fish camp from the mid-1800's. I don't understand why the NPS spent money to restore two log cabins that are empty on an island that only a hundred or so people visit. It can only be accessed by private boat. Lighthouses, yes. Fish Camp, no.
