Nubble Lighthouse

Cape Neddick Lighthouse is in Cape Neddick, York, Maine. In 1874 Congress appropriated $15,000 to build a light station at the "Nubble" and in 1879 construction began.  Cape Neddick Light Station was dedicated by the U.S. Lighthouse Service and put into use in 1879. It is still in use today.
 
It was a BEAUTIFUL drive along the coast today to get to the light station.  This is the view; truly magnificent!
 
 

 
The homes here are beautiful!



 
This lighthouse is almost too pretty to be real.  The waves were crashing up around the rocks all around the lighthouse.  It was gorgeous!

 
I wouldn't want to fall in THAT water!
