Pink Orbs7717 viewsWe began an investigation in the North side basement (under the dining room and kitchen). Several minutes after we saw a shadowy figure move across the room, Laura capture the top picture with a pink orb. About 15 minutes later, we decided to move to the first room in the basement (under the living room), and about 10 minutes into that investigation, Robert captured another pink orb in the doorway to the other side of the basement (bottom picture). Was this pink spirit following us?

Jacobson Descendants Visit the Lighthouse622 viewsJudy and Jenny are descendants of keeper Thomas Jacobson, who served as keeper of Point Lookout Lighthouse from May 1, 1912 until August 30, 1917. Judy is Mr. Jacobson's great granddaughter; Jenny is his great-great granddaughter, and Judy's daughter. Lighthouse historian Robert Hall took the family on a tour of the lighthouse, pointing out the differences between how the structure looked during Mr. Jacobson's five year tenure and the way that it looks today.
