One Saturday in September every year is
Open Lighthouse Day. It was started around the time we moved to Maine, so we've managed to participate every year they've had it. A big list of lighthouses, some of which are otherwise not open, are open free to the public on this day. We choose different ones to go to each time. This year it was
Pemaquid and
Marshall Point.
We like to make it a fun roadtrip together and usually stop off at a few post offices for me to take their pictures to add to
my collection. We also try to find other interesting things along the way, shops or natural points.
Crawling around on the beach, especially when there are nice rocks, is also de rigueur.
And we do go up into the lighthouses and admire the
fresnel lenses as well as the scenic views.
