Me as a baby, my brother very young, and my dad, all next to the yellow dinghy boat. Wearing life jackets and boots. I look happy. My brother doesn't.

Me as a baby, asleep in the yellow dinghy boat while my dad tries to get the motor working. A classic picnic basket sits in the boat, complete with thermos and checkered blanket.

No minivan when I was little. ⚓️🚙 Here's my dad, brother and me in our family dinghy. The best way to go on outings when you live on a little light station instead of the suburbs. 🐳

The Lighthouse Adventure–Part 2 Part 2 of my White Shoal Lighthouse story—this time about the station itself. From generators and infrastructure to places to hang out, the sleeping rooms, as well as the restoration makes this remote outpost both livable and unforgettable. #WhiteShoalLighthouse #Above63
