Ascend

There's an old saying that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step...but in this instance, it's a journey of 162 feet into the air, and 220 steps of wrought iron. This is the very beginning of the ascent to the top of the Currituck Lighthouse in Corolla, NC. I would have loved to climb to the top, and it isn't for a lack of trying; it's simply that these buildings are without a doubt the most vertigo-inducing structures I've ever been inside of. Absolutely awe-inspiring...and yet terrifying on a primal level for me. Still, there was a remarkable amount to take in even from the bottom of the lighthouse, one of those views I present to you here. So, can you ascend to the top?
