The historic Yaquina Bay Lighthouse. Orginally it was put in operation in 1871 and decommissioned int 1874. Was restored by a private group and relit in 1996. It's now staffed and operated by volunteers. It's one of the few on the Oregon coast with attached quarters for th lighthouse keep. Here we have a look at the kitchen, parlor and main bedroom. Enjoy

A wonderful looking lighthouse Dennis and I don't want to think about that pot underneath the foot of the bed. Love the stove and the drying rack above the stove. Great collage my friend!

The old stove in the right hand bottom capture reminds me of the days on my grand mothers farm. They had no electricity on the farm and had the same type of stove.They also had a fridge and a freezer that worked using paraffin.It was a feast visiting the farm and to get away from such luxuries as electricity and television and the hustle an bustle of city life. Superb captures adn collage my friend. God Bless.
