And last, but not least, for this post – Keepers are needed for the North Head Lighthouse.  On May 16, 1898 the North Head Lighthouse was put into service.  Time has not been kind to this statuesque landmark and life saver.  For more information on how you can help, email Keepers of the North Head Lighthouse.  “Steadfast, serene, immovable, the same, Year after year, through all the silent night Burns on forevermore that quenchless flame, Shines on that inextinguishable light!”  From “The Lighthouse” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Hope to see lots of you at these festivities or in real estate mode!  Remember, there’s still time to qualify for the home buyer stimulus bonus!  Don’t say I didn’t warn you!
