Thanks for posting that link Paul. Bob Trapani sent me that same link earlier today. It's a very unique arrangement with Rockland Breakwater-Owl's Head-ALF. It looks like another Maine lighthouse is well on its way to salvation! towel

Wonderful story! I visited Owl's Head again last
summer when I was in Maine. I had seen it sever al times before but my daughter hadn't, and I wanted her to see it. She was thrilled!
