Scituate Lighthouse and Harbor, Scituate, Massachusetts, USA



A big storm was coming so I thought a trip to Scituate Lighthouse and Harbor would make an interesting visit. I was hoping for a dramatic sky to go with the strong winds.



It was hot and humid even under the mostly overcast sky.



Here folks are returning from a sail out at sea.

Many boats in the harbor.



Storm clouds roll in over the harbor.



There was a nice touch of color on the parking lot side of the lighthouse whipping around in the wind. Congress voted $4,000 to build it in 1810 and it opened in 1811. The keeper, his wife, and their nine children lived in the attached house.
