Visually Stunning LightHouse PiX

Thus LightHouse is the sentinel who stands guard on the shore of the Great Lac' Huron in Michigan.

  At the Tawas Point State park is where this majestic beacon majestically gives guidance to many sailors who brave the Great lakes  ferocious waters.

You can also tour this light house, and climb the spiral staircase, where at the top you stand right next to the Fresnel lens and look out at the lake, beach, and park from a birds eye view.

Classic MapQuest® or Original MapQuest®or Old MapQuest®

Chuga chuga, chuga chuga, Choo Choo.

Trains.

Just like lighthouses, trains, and more so old train stations have a peculiar allure that waxes nostalgia.

Just look at the ornate, meticulously laid brick work that will never again be replicated in today's era of construction.

Chinese shoe factory strike, Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Asics, New Balance, Timberland.



Most people have not heard of the "World's Factory" or "Factory of the World". Which is  where the current shoe factory strike is raging, it's in an area of China called the Pearl River Delta or PRD.

The capital of the area is Canton, which is located 75 miles NW of Hong Kong.

The population of this megacity  area is a staggering 63 to 120 million people.



In 2001 almost five percent of the world's goods were produced here, and Hong Kong has over 70,000 factory plants in the PRD area.

Thanx goes to MapQuest® the best free maps and directions online, for the map screenshot of the PRD area.
