Please let us know if there are any sites that should be on this list that are not, or if you find any dead links. We've decided to stop writing descriptions for most new sites unless a description is really needed or one is provided to us. Having a listing on this page does not mean endorsement by C.P.L.H.S. and we have not done any background checks on any of these businesses. Navigate them at your own risk. Thanks! -Cameron

With the Great Lakes ecosystem as a primary focus, we explore universal themes and connections that apply to the entire planet".

Among others things, their photographs were published in one of my favorite books about lighthouses by Charles K. Hyde entitled "The Northern Lights".
