ED - SPLENDID IS - AS SPLENDID DOES!

Have admired it myself, several times, when I've taken the Cape May Ferry to my niece's house in Ocean view.

"... the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness grasps it not!"

Lighthouses are marvelous wonders, Ed. Sadly, I think their luster and beauty seems to be fading, as society seems to move away from the simple treasures we once enjoyed, but I still find myself so inspired by the strong and nurturing nature that a lighthouse still portrays.

This is beautiful, Ed; thank you.

Was that a bright light or a devil's eye in the witches hours around there?

Awesome! And, here I thought [based on the title] that it would be about your favorite 'bud.' LOL Reading this, gives me a warm, light feeling - I could almost see its beacon.

God bless you. Kathy
