Stepping Stone Lighthouse (note mini three story light keeper's "house") ...

June was born and grew up in Stamford, I moved there in 2nd grade.
The house on the right is very near where our boat it docked. My parents
sublet it the first winter we were there (1950) for almost nothing.
The value was during the summer ... an escape from NYC.
This was quite a change from the two room house we had lived in before ...
