Scituate Lighthouse, Scituate, Massachusetts, USA

This was one of those summer days when the wind is hot and strong, the sky is painfully blue, and the clouds start to boil into thunderstorms.  A day when I thought - this sky needs a lighthouse in front of it. So I went to Scituate to see what I could see.

It was built in 1810 and opened the following year.

The view across part of the harbor. Lighthouses have protected ships along the New England coastline for centuries. The State of Massachusetts by itself has dozens of them.
