U.S. Lighthouse Society News has created a new category — Lighthouses in Art. Erin Nichole Boyt, Director/Choreographer, submitted The Navigator Official Music Video, featuring a Seattle-based musical duo, March to May and the Version Excursion Dance Company. If you look closely some of The Navigator was shot at Admiralty Head Lighthouse in Fort Casey Historical State Park on Whidbey Island, near Seattle. It also features the historic steamer Virginia V.

Very nice!
I have always believed in mermaids. But alas, still waiting for my first encounter.
