This background is provided by
Dick Lund's Great Lakes Ship Photos & More.
Dick is a fantastic photographer and spends much of his time traveling and photographing ships and other points of interest. The ship in the background is the new Kwintebank, coming into Menominee April 10, 2006. She was built in 2002 in the Netherlands, replacing the old one, owned by Pot Sheepvart.
In the foreground is the Menominee Lighthouse "North Pier." This station was established in 1877 on Lake Michigan, located at the end of the pier on the north side of the entrance to the Menominee River from Green Bay. First lit in 1927 it is active and operational today.
