Narrative and photographs

This one may be a bit of a stretch, but I’m including it anyway just for fun. We observed the beacon from the 446’ high observation tower that is part of the new Penobscot Narrows bridge. So cool that we could see the beacon clearly from over three miles away (even if it didn’t photograph all that well)!
