The Pemaquid Lighthouse again. So beautiful, this coast.
On the rocks below the lighthouse. You can see Randy, and Ginny with Claire exploring the rocks. Everyone played for about an hour out there.
I sneaked away just before five p.m., because I had a hunch they would close the lighthouse to visitors at five. The guide closed the gate behind me, in fact. They allowed groups of four to climb into the top to the lamp room. Luckily for me, I was a group of one, and I was able to sneak into the third to the last group going up, since there were only three of them. I didn’t have to wait. After climbing the very narrow and steep spiral staircase nearly to the lamp room, I had to shimmy up a vertical ladder to a platform above, sans handholds at the top. Gees, Louise, it was an adventure for this vertically phobic person. But I did it! And this view was my reward.
The top area was so small, it was difficult to take a good photo of the light, since it was so close.
