CEE’S BLACK AND WHITE PHOTO CHALLENGE – Words with “O” & “U”

Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge

I went through my photos and found some photos that contain words with “O” and “U”.

Every month the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum has a Sunset/Moonrise Tour where only a few can climb the 219 step cylinder lighthouse. It is $30.00 per person and well worth going up there and having a chance to watch the sunset and the moon rise in the same night. Hopefully, a marine layer doesn’t come and keep you from seeing it. I’ve been there on clear nights and I’ve been there on cloudy nights. I love both! The cloudy nights make it more creepy and if you are a believer, you can feel the spirits in the air. Okay, maybe it’s the spirits they offer as refreshments once you reach the top….

If you decide to make a trip to St. Augustine, Florida, I highly recommend visiting the Lighthouse and maybe take the ghost tour. I have had some peculiar encounters both on the guided tour and just wondering around by myself or with Frank.

      Thank you Cee. Sorry, I haven’t been posting much lately. I’ve been designing and getting new products in my Etsy shop. I’m still behind in what I want to get done and behind the 8 ball for the holidays. 🙂

        Awe…thanks! I’ve still got an uphill battle for a couple more weeks with the store. I’m going to build a real website after the holidays & it may take 6 months to get it going, but I think I would do better with my own site. 🙂

      Yes, and exceptionally great when you are high in the tower of a lighthouse. 🙂

      Thank you Cee for picking me this week! I almost didn’t post because of the time constraints again, but I’m glad I took the time to do it. Will be posting this week for sure. It might be last minute, but I’ve already got some photos for it. 🙂
