Inside Drum Point Lighthouse

This Flash Back Friday #FBF post is dedicated to YOU, Drum Point Lighthouse!

When I visted Drun Point Lighthouse in September 2014, the tour guide explained that it was one of the few remaining screw pile, cottage style lighthouses in Maryland.

As we toured the inside of the lighthouse, I was enthralled by the replicas of the kitchen and dining areas, as well as children and adult bedrooms. I had a sense of how lighthouse families of past,  actually lived and set up home at Drum Point.

I was also intrigued by a wall containing a plaque in tribute to Anna Weems Ewalt, who was born in the lighthouse on July 13, 1906.
