Here is the last great lakes light ship.

Its usefulness was not that it was light weight and agile.

It was a beacon of light to thwart ships from running aground in shallow waters.

And to this day it is still in use as a historic museum of days long ago on the turbulent unforgiving Great Lakes.

There are still many hundreds of vessels that have disappeared on the Great Lakes that have never been found.

Just like the missing 777 airliner may remain a mystery for eternity.

"The American Legion"

is one of the great American social and mutual aid organizations.

Their motto, "For God and country".

Founded in the year, 1919,

membership 2.4 million.

With 14, 000 posts worldwide.

Headquarters Indianapolis, Indiana.

If you MapQuest American Legion you can usually find a hall somewhat nearby.

But we doubt you will find one with a mural as nice as this one, and one that is this large. How does an artist practice doing a painting that is on such a grand scale as this mural is?



Here is the wikipedia link, for the American Legion.
