This is so heart warming to see the many friends Karen has accumulated in such a short time!
Please add my prayers for a speedy recovery and return to action.

Torre de Hercules, A Coruna,

Excuse the ugly sod in the foreground.
Came across this photo taken at the end of August 2004 when Shels were playing Deportivo in the Champions League.
Behind is the famous Torre de Hercules lighthouse, claimed to be the oldest lighthouse in the world, having guided ships past the north west coast of Spain since the second century or the eighth century AD whoever you believe. The tower was extensively refurbished in the 1700s and there are great views from the top, though not of A Coruna itself which lies over the brow of the hill.

Amazing even though you can see the signs of restoration.

1005_lighthouse.jpgLighthouses and Otherworldly Guests - The Heceta Head Lighthouse, north of Florence, is the subject of some truly chilling tales. This yarn has shades of the old "Ghost and Mrs. Muir" TV series, with families who've run the B&B at the keeper's quarters saying the lady phantom is like a member of the family. This coastal ghostly tale is the one with the most witnesses, also backed up by famed nature photographers Steve Terrill and Steve Gaddis.

The Yaquina Head Lighthouse and the Yaquina Bay Lighthouse in Newport both have ghost tales surrounding them, but they’ve been proven to be rumor and their sources traced.
