Last week our quarterly maintenance was due on the rotation mechanism. Every three months we put jacks under the flash panels, pull the friction rollers, inspect everything, and put it all back together again. What made this session more fun was that it was the first time that we had guest keepers here and they got to get their hands dirty and do some real lighthouse keeping. Corey and Angela were not at all shy. They jumped right in, got greasy, and seemed to enjoy the experience, particularly when we had everything reassembled and they saw how smoothly the mechanism turned.

Ah, the rewards of being a lighthouse keeper. A job well done!
We hope you guys come back real soon because you do good work and I have a lot of painting that needs to be done and we need to clean windows and we need to remove some rust from the ironwork and I need ........ :-)

I was delighted to be escorted to the top of the lighthouse by none other than the lighthouse keeper himself on Easter morning.
The view was as exhilarating as the climb was invigorating. I must say, the charming keeper was as captivating as he was handsome. I shall return often. I'm in love.

I admit, I have not been on this webpage in a long time... however it was another joy to see It is such an important topic and ignored by so many, even professionals. I thank you to help making people more aware of possible issues.
