Backtrack....

   Before we left Hatteras we stopped at the Bodie Light.  They had just finished  installing their rebuilt 1st order Fresnel lens.  An amazing piece of engineering and art.  Sadly the tower wasn't open for climbing until
April.  The picture of the partially rebuilt Fresnel lens was in the Shipwreck Museun at Hatteras. It turns out that Jim Woodward, who rebuilt the Point Betsie light, also did both of these 1st order lights....small world
   The pic  of the Brew Thru is a drive thur type that I had never seen.  You actually "drive thru the building" ,I can see one in Frankfort already....
