Weekly Photo Challenge – Topic Monument – Cape Hatteras Lighthouse

_MG_1977_MG_1993

We live about 1 hour from the bridge that crosses to the Outer Banks of North Carolina – so we go there as often as possible especially in the warm weather. This lighthouse is a symbol of that area. The smaller picture gives you an idea of the view from the top. Of note, the lighthouse was moved back from the beach several years ago to protect it from the ravages of the ocean.
