The August issue arrived in my mailbox (forwarded from my old address) today and I was struck by how different the layout & design is.

New masthead, color on every page. No more different kinds of paper inside. Nice typography, easy to read. Very clean look.

Looks like more news stories, mostly by Jeremy d'Entremont.

A nice advertising section for Lighthouse B&Bs and places to stay near lighthouses.

It looks fresh and well done.

My only complaint might be that every main story has a headline in some non-standard typefont. But it's sure an improvement. More readable.

Congratulations To Tim Harrison, Kathleen Finnegan, and Layout & Design person Dee Leveille and Art DIrector HL Timbreza. Peter Lebetkin is listed as Copy Editor and Editorial Correspondent is Jeremy D'Entremont.
