The US government is auctioning six retired lighthouses, with an asking price of around $15,000 each. The Detroit River Light, seen here, sits in Lake Erie, south of the city of Detroit.

For $15,000, a former lighthouse can be yours - NewsChannel 5 Nashville

My mom wanted to buy a cabin in northern Michigan, but I vetoed her selection. (She wanted to buy it together.) Maybe I can talk her into a lighthouse...

I had to Google to find the pictures of the other four in Michigan.

I got excited when I saw there was one off Beaver Island, until I saw it. Ugly.

I want the Poe Reef Lighthouse near Cheboygan (in Lake Michigan, between the UP and LP, west of the bridge). It is cute The other one near Cheboygan isn't bad, either.

The other Michigan one is near Escanaba.
