Put a Dot on it

The other day Paul and I took a little trip to see the lighthouse in

Gabarus, a charming seaside village an hour away from where we live.

I was thinking that since lighthouses and the maritimes go together

like potatoes and butter it might do me some good to explore these

large houses of light. Not only that, my exploring might come in

handy in the form of subject matter for my newspaper column (I

write two articles a month for the Cape Breton Community Post if

you want to check it out!)We have only visited two lighthouses

since coming to the east coast, the Louisbourg one (my town) and

the Margaree Harbour one (my uncle's town).  Needless to say, we

haven't seen many. I'm glad we got to go to Gabarus before the

summer's end. There really isn't anything to do there, but the sights

are worth the trip alone.  Both the sky and ocean were so blue that

day it looked as if they were competing for our attention. I've also

never seen such clear water before in my life! Seriously, the clearest.

So clear I felt as if I were swimming inside of a water bottle. And

not a Dasani water bottle, I mean one that gets their water from a

fresh brook up north. I love the sound a cobblestone beach makes

too, it's as if I'm inside a giant rainstick the way the water moves

between the rocks. I just love how this island makes me feel as if I've

left behind the 21st century. It's right there when I want it anyways.
