East Point Lighthouse by hjbenson

East Point Lighthouse

Caught up on the bills and mail that came during our vacation to Oregon. Felt like taking a little drive to get today's photo. Drove about 1/2 hour to East Point Lighthouse on the Delaware Bay. It is the 2nd oldest lighthouse still standing in New Jersey and the only functioning onshore lighthouse still functioning on Delaware Bay.

View Large; Each photo is sooc: looking from the parking lot, Delaware Bay, looking from the water
Beautiful collage Harry.

Great collage. It's nice to see a more "wild" beach not covered with tanned tourists. Beautiful colors, you picked a great day to go!

@sourkraut Thank you Lina, the bay side is much more quite than the ocean side. I will go to Cape May once or twice between June and September - too many people
