Life on the Rock - Tillamook Rock

Tillamook Rock LighthouseTillamook Rock Lighthouse by Anneh632Lighthouse News is fortunate in being able to present this series from Lon Haynes, USCG, Ret., who served from 1953 to 1957 on the USCG Cutter Klamath, at Tillamook Rock Lighthouse and USCG Cutter Blackhaw. Now 72 years old, living in Vancouver, WA with his wife and retired from the heating and air conditioning trade, he is sharing his delightful stories, photos and newspaper clippings from a lost era in lighthouse keeping history. Lon and his wife have five children, ten grandchildren and one great-granddaughter.
Life on the Rock - Tillamook Rock is now available in its entirety as a PDF. Download the entire series as a PDF file. You can right click on the link and save it to your computer, or you can open it in your browser (will open in a new window) and save a copy from inside the file. You will need the free Adobe Reader to view it. If you don’t have it, you can download it at Adobe.Com.

Inside of the card

The download is approximately 457 kb in size (those pdf files grow to humungous proportions) so if you’re on dial up it may be too much without a download manager. I’ve also added them as a regular download. Card1.pdf and Card2.pdf are the two split files (inside and outside). Card.pdf is the two combined. Left click to open and save a copy from within Adobe Reader. Right click the file to save to your computer. If you don’t have Adobe Reader you can get it here free.

Happy holidays from Lighthouse News.
