A Big Thank You! to NELL (New England Lighthouse Lovers) for supporting the restoration of the Dutch Island Lighthouse. Their support has been greatly appreciated both today and in the past. NELL supplied us with the funds back in 2007 to replace the main door on the Lighthouse. This year they are paying for the purchase of our Boston Whaler to provide us transportation to and from the Island. Please visit their website at http://www.newenglandlighthouselovers.org/

The exterior of the Lighthouse is now complete! Lamontagne Woodworks finished the east side on November 10th at 2:45. We still need to raise 40,000 dollars to cover the cost of all the work we have done this year. Please contribute anything you can, every little bit helps to keep this wonderful light shining.

The crew now has 3 sides finished and we have just the east side left to do. Weather permitting they should finish up the sides by the end of next week. Next year we will be working on the exterior of the lantern room and the perimeter railing which is very poor condition. Please help us raise the funds to keep this work going by visiting our website at www.DILS.US

captured this image of the red sun lining up perfectly with the Newport Bridge. We've never seen anything like this before! If we didn't know any better, we'd say it's photoshopped 😉
