I have always been fascinated with lighthouses. Luckily, there are many in coastal New England. Even our wedding was next to a light house. Now for the first time, we have combined lighthouses and bicycles.
This is the red and white
Nauset Light, operational since 1837. It is a short but very hilly coastal ride from where we are staying. From
Nauset Light, a narrow bicycle trail through the woods leads to a truly unusual sight: the
Three Sisters.
The
Three Sisters stand in a semicircle in clearing in the woods: three small, pristine-white lighhouses. My camera is not wide angle enough to capture all three together - but here are two of them, with the Co-Habitant cycling in between.
The site is so quiet and unexpected; it has an almost mystical quality to it. Here I am next to the
Middle Sister.
Miles and
Marianne in front of the smallest sister. The
Three Sisters are the only station in the U.S. designated by three lighthouse towers. Read more about their history
