Gloria and Doug, this is a very weather beaten landmark.  So many of these lighthouses could really use some TLC but I gue$$ it takes community $upport.  I like this perspective.

I at first read this as "Weathered BACON" - I thought you were coming up with a new paint color....that sounds DELICIOUS...!!!

Gloria, what a fabulous photo!  Assateague is such a magical place!  The crabs are pretty great, too.

Hi Gloria, I think this light house is fantastic and weathered but weathered is good. I used to have a room full of lighthouses; quilt, pillows, pictures, statues, etc. I was just nutty over lighthouses and I still like them but not in the house anymore. If I ever buy a beach house, I think I will decorate one of the spare bedrooms in this theme.

Eric, Thank you!  And you have a Happy Valentine's Day and a great 2013!

Mona, I was surprised to see it in such need of attention.  I guess it will need a motivated person or group to help this place raise money!

That's funny Sharon!  Were you hungry when you were on line?

Patricia, we really enjoyed being there in the off season.  Pretty much had the place to ourselves and saw many wonderful birds!  Yes crabs are great also!!

Kristin, I know a few people who have collections of lighthouses and I can understand why.  They are fasinating structures.  There are even opportunities to live in lighthouses as caretakers.  

Roy, yes a lot of history!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!

Gloria
