I don't often make my photos black and white, but this one felt right. Have you been to Sakonnet? It's got to be one of the most epic lighthouse locations I've been to. I love the long walk out there on the pebble beach and the huge waves crashing into the light. It also seems to always be very windy there. What's the most epic lighthouse you've been to?

If you've followed me for awhile, you know I love a good still puddle. It adds an interesting perspective to just about anything, but especially lighthouses.

I'm ashamed to say I do not know the name of this lighthouse. We saw so many unexpected, small lighthouses in Canada, particularly on PEI. These red cliffs were just quintessential PEI. Do you know the name of this light? I'll have to do some sleuthing 🧐

Which Lighthouse Wednesday. This is an easy one for any Newporters or Newp fans. I'm not even going to give a hint. Do you know this lighthouse?

Happy Monday from Bass Harbor! Not pictured: approximately 1,000 mosquitoes devouring me. Worth it? Jury is still out.

I've been to this lighthouse twice, once for sunset and once for sunrise. It was epic both times, so I'm convinced this lighthouse sees a glorious light show every day twice a day.

A very tiny lighthouse feature today. That's Race Rock Lighthouse way out there. I love when it's moody like this and the light on the water makes these interesting layers.

You can't tell from the photo, but there were approximately 100 cows just outside the frame 😂🐮 It was quite memorable. We stopped to make some lunch and had a jolly time with the chatty locals.

Which Lighthouse Wednesday. The mystery light this week is playing peekaboo in some tree leaves. Do you recognize the lighthouse?

Your hint is: location north of Boston in a town known for witchcraft

It's always a dramatic day at Portland Head Light. Have you been here on a cloudy day? Pretty epic!

Happy Friday! Any plans to visit any lights this weekend?

Since I don't live on the coast anymore, I sadly can't head down the road to a lighthouse every other day like I used to. But absence makes the heart grow fonder, as they say! I think my dream lighthouse to visit next would be maybe in the Carolinas. I've only been to a few southern lights. What about you?

This photo just feels like summer. That electric blue sky 😍 This lighthouse is not the easiest to get to... at least not if you're in a hurry. Have you walked across the Provincetown Causeway?

Which Lighthouse Wednesday! This one is tough since there are so many sparkplug lights out there. 2 hints: It's in New York and it's along the Hudson River. Which lighthouse is it?

An Irish lighthouse for today's post in honor of St. Patrick's Day ☘️ I visited this light in 2018 when we went to Ireland to explore my family history. We saw the school where my great grandmother grew up and later taught in, visited Cobh where she boarded a ship to head to the states, and of course made some time to see some lighthouses.

Howth Light was the first stop we made in Ireland after landing. The tower was built in 1817, and is just 20 minutes outside of Dublin.

☘️ Happy St. Patrick's Day ☘️
