Lighthouses

Every episode is one lighthouse. Every lighthouse has a story.Some of them are about the people who kept the lights burning — alone, for decades, through storms that took everything else. The woman who held the lamp through a month-long gale while the sea swept her house away. The keeper who rowed into the harbor, again and again, because that was the job. The man who climbed eighty-seven steps every day for thirty years after anyone stopped paying him to.Some of them are about the structures themselves — what it actually took to build something that could stand where the ocean was trying, specifically, to kill it. What happened on the days it lost.Each episode runs about two minutes. One lighthouse, one story, one reason it earned its place.See the light.
