Another study of the famous Roanoke River Light House - one of a few remaining screw-pile structures left. Once a beacon to safely guide ships and schooners in the Albemarle Sound and into the Roanoke River, it now sits in Edenton's waterfront as it stands guard over the bay and Pembroke Creek.
Steve Love and I set up under a live oak yesterday at just the right time when the sun was lighting up both the orange/umber roof and the patina copper roof of the crow's nest. The only people having more fun than us were the fishermen in the sound catching white perch and a group of older men in the park talking all grades of junk while firing up their grills to cook up some serious soul food.
