FRIEND have you ever seen a movie called "The Lightkeepers" about lighthousekeepers around the turn of the last century? It has Blythe Danner & Mamie Gummer & Richard Dreyfuss & Tom Wisdom as the four leads. It's very gentle.

Also "The Butcher's Wife" has a lighthouse.

Awwwww your story combined with that song brought tears to MY eyes!

May we all be united with (or become) lighthousekeepers.

The latest ep of Lighthearted, the US Lighthouse Society's podcast, was an interview with one of England's last lighthouse keepers. This is his YouTube channel where he recorded, "for posterity, the passing way of life of the 'Keeper'. "

Most of Alaska's lighthouses are automated, but a handful have seasonal lighthousekeepers on site. For most, the season is winding down: www.kfsk.org/2024/10/15/2...
