"Sound" teableau for 13Mar25

A nod to some of the things on or in Puget Sound: Lighthouses. Giant Pacific Octopus. Sailboat. People who paint Giant Pacific Octopuses on spoons.

Tea tableau in white with red and blue with a lighthouse motif in fabric, china, and figurines. Also a wooden sailboat, a MidCentury glass creamer and sugar set, a white linen tea towel with wild crocheted fringe edges, a tablespoon handpainted with the image of a waving red octopus with yellow eyes, and the tea is English Teatime black tea from Bigelow.

Most lighthouses on the West US coast were built in the mid 1800s to early 1900s and look so similar that you get the idea there was a basic design for those governmental buildings! Most of their beauty comes from their spectacular surroundings

Model lighthouse at Heceta Head, Oregon shows the typical PNW format: a solid squat circular tower with the round light chamber at the top, with a small red roofed maintenance/guard duty building at the side. The lighthouse keepers typically did not live in the lighthouse, but in houses of to the side, which now are typically used as bed and breakfast inns. The setting is at the top of a cliff, with woods off to the side.

Model lighthouse at Umpqua, Oregon shows the typical PNW format: a solid squat circular tower with the round light chamber at the top, with a small red roofed maintenance/guard duty building at the side. The lighthouse keepers typically did not live in the lighthouse, but in houses of to the side, which now are typically used as bed and breakfast inns. Once again, the setting is at the top of a cliff, with woods off to the side.

odel lighthouse at North Head, Washington shows the typical PNW format: a solid squat circular tower with the round light chamber at the top, with a small red roofed maintenance/guard duty building at the side. The lighthouse keepers typically did not live in the lighthouse, but in houses of to the side, which now are typically used as bed and breakfast inns. The setting is at the top of a cliff, with grassy slopes and steep drop offs to the ocean at the sides.

Old Cape Spear Lighthouse, Newfoundland

We didn't have a car on our only trip to NFLD, but we did manage to get in a bit of sightseeing thanks to a student of Steven's. My father's family came from a tiny community, Greenspond, but I didn't manage to get there to see it. Newfoundlanders are such hospitable, kind people, as I think many people found when 9/11 happened and US planes were forced to land in Gander airport for safety. The locals looked after everyone who arrived, welcoming everyone as if they were family.

The left of the scene is the ocean with a sky partly dark and light cloud, partly blue. There are brown rock cliffs stretching into the distance, meeting the ocean with the waves forming a white, foamy edge to the water. The top of the cliff is worn, rounded rock, with some brown vegetation flattened against it, perhaps by bad weather and high waves. Perched on top of the cliff is a round white lighthouse with a red and white striped roof of the actual light section. There is a low, white fence around it, set back a bit from the edge, to stop anyone from falling over.
