Have you seen lake (or sea) smoke in person before?
It's a pretty incredible phenomenon caused by frigid air interacting with the relatively warm water. We see quite a bit of it this time of year along the Lake Michigan coast.
This beautiful photo was shared by Lake Whispers Brewing LLC's Chris Schroeder, taken in 2019.

Denise and Jude had a great time at the lighthouse table at Lakehaven during the Kewaunee County Christmas Stroll this year! We sold roughly $1,200 of Kewaunee Lighthouse related merchandise and helped dozens of people check loved ones off their gift lists.
The book "Good Night, Wisconsin" was the hot seller this year and it's no wonder - the children's bedtime picture book has the Kewaunee Lighthouse in it!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and said hi!
