Welcome to “Light” Thoughts…
One of the most
exciting and unique aspects of lighthouse preservation is how history and
present day activities are inseparable as we work to save America’s
lighthouses for the future. Being able to review interesting and important
facets of lighthouse history is vital to gaining a better understanding of
what occurred before us and how we should best act in the present to enact
preservation and education initiatives. Just as important is the ability to
analyze the best practices and challenges the lighthouse community
collectively fasces in the present with saving our nation’s lighthouses –
and not forgetting to be that encouraging “voice” for organization’s
navigating the changing waters of lighthouse preservation.
“Light” Thoughts
is such a platform where history and present day activities that are
relevant to lighthouse preservation and education come together with an
engaging and thought provoking approach. “Wickie's Wisdom” by American
Lighthouse Foundation president Tim Harrison, “Message in a Bottle”
by ALF executive director Bob Trapani, Jr., and “Life at the Lights”
by ALF historian Jeremy D’Entremont are intended to address these facets of
history and present day issues or best practices important to lighthouse
preservation.
