The government recognized the importance to ships at sea to find safe harbor during fog and storms. Over the years, lighthouses have saved many ships, and an untold number of lives.This National day actually has some history behind it. 60 minutes or the Sunday morning news had a piece on how the Federal government couldn't give away lighthouses but when they switched to auctioning them off, hundreds lined up. If I had known they were trying to give them away I would have taken one. Running my company from a lighthouse would be fun. link to story || 1 comment || Add a comment |
