Dangerous Lighthouse

Lighthouses used to be life-saving structures that guided all types of sea faring persons to safe shores. Somehow they have also become romaticized tourist destinations, attracting thousands of sight-seers, amateur photographers and artists in beachside towns.

As usual, we just can't help ourselves when discovering mobile mausoleums. We literally gape at these vehicles, though such sightings have yet to cause an accident.

And so, with measurable immaturity and likely zero empathy, you have to wonder why Mom would venture a visit to the lighthouse where Sally Ann met her ultimate end. Did they live at the lighthouse or jump from the top in a final act of escape? We don't know but we hesitate to suggest that you visit next time you are in town.
