 Five
lighthouses were constructed at various strategic locations
across Martha's Vineyard between the years 1799 and
1869. These historic landmarks have been lovingly preserved
and maintained even though it meant fighting the elements
or relocating them to protect against encroaching erosion.
Families have visited them for decades to take wedding pictures
and family portraits. People gather at the East Chop light
during summer evenings to pay homage to the setting sun
in silence or song. Make sure a trip to at least one these
majestic sentinels is on your Martha's Vineyard vacation
agenda. But first take some time and read through the copious
information on this excellent website put together by Debbie
Dolphin.
