Lighthouses

Prompt: Lighthouses. Have you ever visited a Lighthouse? Write about Lighthouses in your Blog entry today.

I have visited two Lighthouses. One in Michigan City, Indiana. There are two Lighthouses. The old lighthouse is a museum. Pictures of ships that went down. A child's room with toys. Lighthouse equipment. The light upstairs. It is nice. The second one you walk to and it is on the lake. It's treachous in the winter time. A man fell in the ice and drowned. It is safe to tour the old one.

St. Augustine, Florida. I love the lighthouse there. I climbed all 300 some steps and wore myself out. The light is at the very top. They wouldn't let us up there. It was too windy. I can't believe the poor lighthouse keeper climbed all those steps to the light every day. There is a cardboard picture of the lighthouse keeper and I posed with him for a picture. The lighthouse has three rooms downstairs. They are neat. A Woodstove. Seeing the ocean out the windows.

It is rumored to have ghosts of children but I didn't see them.

The lighthouse is black and white striped. I love lighthouses. I am glad I got to tour the ones I did.
