We always have to remind ourselves that the lighthouse is the destination of our adventures. I have been on so many great lighthouse trips and the ones I remember the most are the ones that I had a great adventure getting there. Via plane, kayak, dune buggy, boat, a major hike in the rain or whatever.

I will have to say, that this "adventure" to the Punta Gorda lighthouse was more than your typical adventure, because it got to a point that once we got to the lighthouse that the real destination would be the car. We all new that getting back was all major uphill and in the rain.

Punta Gorda will always bring back one of those memories that I will shake my head about just being glad that everybody made it back without injury. Everyone of us was completely soaked. My feet were sloshing in my shoes.

Enough said. I'm dying to hear Bob's story.

Anyway....Let's keep in mind that the lighthouse is the destination for a great adventure, especially if you're with some great friends!!
