HELLO!

the first night of your term is a cold and windy one. sitting on the table in the old keeper's room was a book with the following
Lighthouse Diary

Things I Like
Mashed potatoes
Lighthouses
Cozy nights with tea

Today was really something.
sat on the dock with the ol' feet dangling in the water. i love it when it has rained recently. extra foamy. some fish and other seafriends came to say hello, though not much else. i wouldn't say i'm lonely on my long shift, but i wouldn't mind a tea-mate. earl-gray can only do so much to the cloud-gray when you're without good company. alas
when i got up from the dock my butt had a splinter. this old wood!

Wish granted!
now this is a day to remember. for a long time now little ol' me was a little ol' lonesome i guess. not today? up in the lantern room scrubbing the lens i got one lovely surpise. a wayward seabird toppled from the sky and landed on the gallery. what an oaf! he was not one for nicities but was indeed conversational. in another life on land i would've found him dull and abrasive, but this term has changed me and i was eager for the chat. he didn't drink tea, though. i guess not every wish comes true
still looking for the boat tether. let's hope all stays well while it's missing.
1996/11/06
day of ruin
makeshift tether snapped and the tugboat was taken out to sea. i guess im stuck here until someone notices i haven't come for supplies.. what a bother.
talkative seabird hasn't been back yet and i hate to say i miss him
what an odd man i hope he's doing alright and not washed out to sea. too many old men these days lost to sea. poor sailors.
