(dogs can't leave car, Light is on bird sanctuary in a state park)
- Sandy Point Shoal Light - Sandy Point State Park (light is out in the bay and can be seen from the beach in the park)

- Stay overnight at Tilghman Island Inn
(Summer & Murphy can go in the bar too, that is where we are having dinner. That should be interesting.)

Sounds like a great trip. I'll be in North Carolina starting next weekend and I can't wait to go see the lighthouses there. I've got tons of pictures of Hatteras and Bodie Island, but I'll take a bunch more again this time. A weekend with Beagles and lighthouses...sounds like a great time to me!

And have a Happy AA Murphy.

Have a great trip, are Murphy and Summer good travellers? Looking forward to hearing all about it and seeing your photos.
We are also off on a tour next week. To France and Spain in our camper-car, duration of about 6 weeks. Taking loads of spare bedding for the hounds incase Susi gets up to her usual tricks.
