Today was the groundbreaking day for the renovatio Today was the groundbreaking day for the renovation and restoration of the Ocracoke Lighthouse keeper's quarters. After a short ceremony we were able to go into the keeper's quarters. It was my first time in! I have waited over 30 years to get inside this dwelling. It needs work but it is a great house and I am thrilled that the NPS will be taking care of it. Work should start mid January so expect changes when you come for your next visit . #bookstobered #ocracoke #ocracokelighthouse #ocracokekeepersquarters #nps
