Barnegat Lighthouse

 After watching the video on the previous post of my farmer, I'm sure you all would agree that it was time to kidnap the farmer and take him away for a couple of days to rest!  I decided to take him to a lighthouse for some relaxation.  I figured climbing a lighthouse would be similar to climbing a silo so he should feel real comfortable here at Barnegat Lighthouse!  This is a neat state park to go to!  You can climb the 216 steps in this 175 ft. silo   lighthouse.  There is a trail through a small wooded area and you can get to an isolated part of the beach from here, too.  We were fortunate to be there before the tourist season started, so we had the beach to ourselves most of the time!



These little birds were everywhere!  Isn't he cute?




The view from the top of the lighthouse.



A seagull must have dropped this on the rail.



The "keeper of the dunes."






We were walking along and found this written in the sand.  Awwwww.


A path to the beach.




Notice the farmer's wet boots?  Oops!



Here he is working on his "farmer's tan".  hehe


The farm is just a phone call away!  The farmer is giving advice to Nathan over the phone for a sick cow.




We had a very relaxing two days at Barnegat Lighthouse listening to the waves.  Hopefully the farmer is charged up and ready for a full summer of working "on the farm."

I love all your pictures, but my favorite is the one with the seagull on the rocks with the boat in the background! It looks like a postcard!
