I love lighthouses too. I love that they were the first permanent structures along the coast and how each one is unique - not just the buildings but the pattern of the light they cast for mariners.
When I have traveled by human powered boat down the coast traveling past one light to the next they have given me a psychic comfort.
This lighthouse - Dungeness - is located on the longest spit in North America. It juts nearly 5 miles into the Strait of Juan de Fuca and was the first light house on the West coast if memory serves.
I along with a group of 5 others spent a week volunteering as light house keepers a number of years ago here - we were docents for anyone who walked all the way out to the end of the spit and wanted to go to the top of the light house, kept the property tidy (yes - I polished the brass railing all the way to the top of the light), and various projects as assigned for the week.
It was a lovely week. Quiet and calm. Beautiful - a nature reserve. Stars so bright. And a historic home and light to be privileged to occupy briefly.
I can picture what a lovely week you had as a docent at that lighthouse. How many steps do you have to climb to reach the lantern room?![]()
I agree, Rossie. What a great week.

You must have had plenty of exercises that week.
Thank you.![]()
