Maine is a beautiful state. It possesses a beautiful coastline dotted with many active lighthouses - something not commonly seen in California. The Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine was built in 1791 and still operates today. When I hear the word, "lighthouse," this is what I picture.
Just over a mile away perched on a jagged finger of a rock measuring only 1/4 mile long sits Ram Island Ledge Lighthouse. Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the lighthouse warns mariners of the reef it rests on as it can deceptively hide just under the water's surface depending on the tide.
