Whitewashing Completed!
Carl & Dori Behrend of Old Country Painting & Restoration completed their engagement on the light yesterday. They were assisted by tuckpointing expert Mark Lee. Over the past two weeks they prepped, primed and painted the underside of the 1867 Lighthouse lantern room as well as the soffits and facia boards on the Lighthouse dwelling. They tuckpointed the entire lighthouse, whitewashed the tower and areas on the rear of the dwelling we had be unable to reach, and did touch up whitewashing where they had tuckpointed. In addition, they secured a temporary cap on the lantern room where the ventilator ball is missing. We’re very pleased with their work and am sure anyone seeing the light will be also. It’s spectacular!
