J on trail to summit of Mt. San Antonio (Old Baldy), Angeles National Forest, 1993.
Looking at the lands where my South Carolina ancestors lived, I stumbled upon a lighthouse on this Civil War map. I was scrolling in South Carolina and went too far to North Carolina. I recognized Frying Pan Shoal because there's a Texas Tower style lighthouse there. Then I looked up and saw the lighthouse. This is Bald Head Lighthouse (Old Baldy) on Bald Head Island.
“I felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery—air, mountains, trees, people. I thought, "This is what it is to be happy.” — Sylvia Plath

The Angeles Crest Highway (CA 2) was closed because of snow! The first time I can remember that happening in mid April.
