On Monday, after the regional, it was perfect weather to take the ferry to Block Island.

This is a photo of the North Block Island lighthouse as we were coming in on the ferry. If you take the hi-speed ferry, it comes in to the New Harbor by the Great Salt Pond for a good view of the north light.



We took a taxi tour around the island and then dropped off to hike out to the north light.



Southeast Block is under going some major renovations.



A close-up of the lens.



As John and I were walking out the gate from viewing Southeast Block, I noticed this red sign that is thanking several people for donations including the HL wackos (on the bottom right side of the sign). laugh

Great photos Lorie. Glad to see the HL Wackos were mentioned on that sign in the last photo. That's a really nice touch.

Thanks for sharing the pics, Lorie! I especially like seeing "Harbour Lights and Harbour Lights Wackos" as a contributor.

Great shot of the North Light from the Hi-Speed Ferry. How long a lens did you use?

I hope you enjoyed your visit to Block Island. Lorna and I spend a lot of time there in the summer. We just love the place!
