    I was apart of a group of 5 people who just helped with a restoration project. Tilly is standing strong!! She just got a fresh coat of paint and much more. We camped out for 4 days and 3 nights. Nothing spooky or ghostly. It was a once in a life time experience

" Marine mud-stone and sandstone are inter-bedded with all of the volcanic units and comprise most of the late Eocene to Miocene strati-graphic section that forms the flanks of the Coast Range uplift. " So goes the geology of the lighthouse rock. Your quite correct on that speculation. Very good!

Some homeless should just be euthanized to end their suffering and save us all on time, Money should go to saving animals instead and buying and protecting their habitat,with 7 billion plus of us we can afford to kill of 5 billion including the unsaveable of the homeless.

    That's one of the creepiest looking lighthouses I've ever seen. But still not as creepy as someone who would vandalize someone's ashes. The story about the GE exec restoring the lighthouse is bunk. There's a RUclips video showing him, his wife and some friends in 1978 at the lighthouse. They did a little cleanup and brought in a generator, but that's hardly "restoring it." The bird shit and stench ran them off in quick order... lol.
