There were a couple of television crews and a newspaper photographer present for the ceremony and of course yours truly to capture the event for you..

Larry Craig took his turn on the backside of the cameras shooting his own picture of the event.

Bill also did a radio interview about the Mark Twain lighthouse by Harbour Lights, while in Hannibal before heading to St. Charles and the event at Jansen's on friday evening...

Can someone shed some light on the history of the Mark Twain Lighthouse in MO. Maybe a web site that lists its history? Thanks Jake

Nice to have our own field reporter on the scene to capture the event. Thanks Paul.

Jake, the history of the light is also here on the HL catalogue page:

Thanks for the report St Paul! I was looking forward to hearing about the event after BY told me he was going there from Bellmore.
