Today was different. There was a threat of snow but the temperatures seemed high enough that if it did snow, it wouldn't stick. So I decided to head over to the West Coast.

A Pair of Tugs
Probably one of the most photographed lighthouses in the state is the St. Joseph Lighthouse. It gets really windy on the west coast of the state. As a result, the St. Joseph lighthouse will get covered in ice and pictures of it when that happen look pretty neat. I've always wanted to get a picture of it in that condition but generally the weather doesn't cooperate.

People who have followed this blog long enough know that I am distracted by things that float. Today was no different. As I was heading towards the lighthouse, I looked over to the side and saw this tugboat. So of course I had to stop and take pictures. I don't have many details about this tug unfortunately.
Next to her was a tug called the Defiance. Unfortunately, I don't have details about either of them.
It looks like she is all laid up for the winter and her windows boarded up.
Another angle.
