Five Lighthouse Cruise From Rye, New Hampshire

     On September 21st, 2013 my wife, Sandy, and I had the great pleasure of participating in the annual “Five Lighthouse Cruise” out of Rye, New Hampshire.  It was sponsored by the Friends of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses and was narrated by Jeremy D’Entremont, the foremost expert on the lighthouses of New England.  (Click here for a Story on Jeremy)  While the day continually changed from very overcast to partial sun, to thick fog, and back to overcast it was a delightful trip.  Mr. D’Entremont always makes any excursion very informative and extremely enjoyable.  And, since the early lighthouse keepers saw every possible weather condition imaginable, it is only fair that I photograph lighthouses in whatever conditions I find at the time of our visit.
