Never! That is, I had never seen Marshall Point Light until Sunday. After a leisurely breakfast at the Berry Manor Inn of warm applesauce, almond-coconut poppy seed bread, a basil-tinted quiche, a couple of slices of bacon and coffee, we were ready for an 'adventure' before heading home. We set off towards St. George and Port Clyde and came upon this lighthouse that guards Port Clyde Harbor. It stands on the east side of the entrance and rises 30 feet above the water at high tide. Elenka sat in the warm sun on the steps of the lighthouse museum, while I took a walk along the shore and checked out some interesting rock formations. My life is simple!

I can still hear the lapping of the water at the shore's edge and the squawking of the seagulls in that warm sun. Nice.

ReplyDeleteLove your photo.
Altho the life in these lighthouses certainly were not always romantic, I find them fascinating and romantic from my vantage point. Growing up near Lake Michigan has made me love scenes such as this.
ReplyDeleteIs this the one that Forrest Gump runs to the end of and then turns around and starts running back?

Beautiful! I've never encountered a lighthouse I didn't like. Btw, the simple life is the good life!
ReplyDeleteThere's beauty in simple life! Lighthouses are so picturesque! Love the shadow of the railing in your photo, too :-D
