Lighthouses usually have wonderful histories. There were two I remember
in New Haven, the old tower lighthouse on the shoreline, built in the
mid 1800s, and one built on an artificial reef in the late 1800s. It
replaced the earlier one, but the old lighthouse was maintained as a
park and exhibit.

They are still there. I'm planning on taking some pictures this
summer for a NE Light House series I'm thinking about doing.


Cool. If you get the chance, check out

We used to eat there a lot when I was a young teen. Pretty good food.
Dunno if it is still the same. Decent looking menu.

I'm sure you know there is nothing left, really, of Savin Rock. Jimmies
is just a shadow of its former self, hardly worth a stop.

If you head over to Milford, there's a interesting restaurant in a
little cove called Woodmont, just east of Milford, called The Beach
House. When we lived in Woodmont, it was known as Tom's Villa Rosa
restaurant. Our cottage was across the street, right on the water.
Well, the physical site is the same...the restaurant itself is in a
newer building than I recall:
