And thanks!
Oddyoddyo13...Highlandwriter, welcome! And thanks!<br /><br />Oddyoddyo13, I don't know why this scene popped into my head a month ago. It was the light revolving. In one pass, no one is there. In the next, a figure sitting, confused and alone.<br /><br />Tabitha, this one is so striking. We climbed it the other day! The equivalent of 12 stories of iron stairs.<br /><br />MD, I do all sorts of experimenting here. You are always welcome.<br /><br />Mona, the clues were sparse. I'm kind of amazed that Szelsofa got it.<br /><br />Szelsofa, the way you describe it is how I originally intended to portray it. However, as I sat down to write, I worried that it wouldn't be clear enough. That's why I added the people observing from below. Maybe I didn't need them, but I've been known to make the mistake of not providing enough information for the reader. (And yes, I forgot to mention that 14 miles was a clue too.)<br /><br />Bernita, many thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15498010.post-54222534242928793342010-07-02T10:35:10.415-04:002010-07-02T10:35:10.415-04:00Really well done, Jason!Really well done, Jason!Bernitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05264585685253812090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15498010.post-14881405090048516082010-07-02T05:38:35.267-04:002010-07-02T05:38:35.267-04:00here's the site i gathered my knowledge and co...here's the site i gathered my knowledge and confirmed my guess.<br />http://www.rickslighthouses.com/cape_hatteras.htmSzélsőFahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11600289147447182465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15498010.post-8561068792030331592010-07-02T05:36:44.275-04:002010-07-02T05:36:44.275-04:00i loved seeing this little story evolving into som...i loved seeing this little story evolving into something weird, perhaps dangerous memore? event?, but i did love that it was all seen from a safe distance from a friendly (perhaps, family) circle.<br />i too, liked how you expressed the circling of the light.<br /><br />at the same time i was wondering for a minute whether the story would have been darker had the writer been all alone in that location.<br />it's not that it would have been any better, but surely different.<br /><br /><br />also, i wanted to spare what my clues were, but it seems that i found most of the ones you listed <i>clues in part 2: shoals, north/south currents meeting, and 1870</i><br /><br />in fact, my clues were the different directions of currents, year 1870, and fourteen miles.<br /><br />enjoy your family time!SzélsőFahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11600289147447182465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15498010.post-91399537959256879682010-07-02T04:59:36.130-04:002010-07-02T04:59:36.130-04:00Ok, so the answer is here.
