Beacons of Fire: Point Sur Lighthouse, Big Sur, CA

For all the posts in the Beacons of Fire Series, go here.

Prologue: I love Nora Roberts books, well her books mostly those that she wrote prior to 2009. One of her book is the 1985 romantic novel, One Man’s Art, fourth in her longest series, The McGregor Series. The hero of the story, Grant Campbell, is a loner, rude, surly and impossible, who lives in an old lighthouse. Genevieve Grandeau literally lands on his doorstep during one particular stormy night. The story that follows between Grant and Gennie is what inspired me to look at lighthouses in a different light.

We didn’t go to this lighthouse but saw it too and from Big Sur, California. It is Point Sur Lighthouse that requires 1.5 miles hiking uphill and a $15 entry fee. It comes with beautiful views once you get there though.
