We have heard at least three
different names for this lighthouse: Aransas Bay Light, Port Aransas Light,
Lydia Ann Lighthouse... Well what ever the name, the lighthouse brings up
memories for us.
We saw this light from the land
side and from a distance. We were travelling up the Texas Coast in 2002. It was
hot hot hot and we were on the way from Corpus Christi to Galveston, when we
saw this lighthouse and HAD to take some pictures.
There are much better pictures and
lots of information about this lighthouse here: Aransas Pass (Lydia
Ann) Lighthouse, Texas at Lighthousefriends.com
