While
visiting San Juan Island in April 2004, we stopped at the Lime Kiln Lighthouse
to have a look around. It was here
that I decided to add
lighthouses to
Phase Two of my project. Although lighthouses are not unique to
Washington State,
the Puget Sound, the San Juan Islands, and the Pacific Coast
afford our state the distinctiveness of joining the world in preserving
lighthouses.
A few of the lighthouses listed below are going to be more of a challenge
than others to visit. For example, the
Burrows Island, Stuart
Island,
and Patos Island lighthouses are located
on small land masses in the San Juan Islands. The only
way to reach them
is to charter a boat,
which I did with 40 of my friends and family.
* NOTE: The Skunk Bay Lighthouse is 100% privately owned. No
visitors are allowed near it. |
