“Hm-m, hm-m, hmm. La, la, hm-m.” Tomi set the bottle down and tucked the rag in her back pocket as she stepped back to view her handiwork. It was harder than heck to scrub off age-old, crusted on salt on windows! She put her hands on her ample hips and shook her head. Whatever possessed her to take on a run-down lighthouse that hasn’t been used in years? She pushed her glasses back up on her nose and refocused her eyes to look out beyond the windows to the sun-kissed waves of the ocean and smiled. The sun dancing over the water caused the tips of the waves to glitter like sparkling diamonds and the motion of the waves calmed her. Soothed the restless demons that drove her to this place. She closed her eyes, drew in a deep cleansing breath and let it out slowly. All in all, coming here was a good choice. The hard work kept her body and her mind busy. Too busy to think. Too busy to remember. She fell into bed at night too exhausted to dream. Here, she might heal. Philip tore her life apart, but by the grace of the Almighty and the goodness of many others, maybe here, she could rebuild the life she lost.

Gary looked out his kitchen window and grimaced. Sometimes he could ignore and look past the old eye sore, other days like today, it stuck out like a sore thumb. It blocked his view of the ocean and brought back nightmarish memories.
The lighthouse once served the community when trade up and down the coast was plentiful. Now with high-tech gadgets and modern equipment, bigger ports were built in the larger communities.
