Tchefuncte River

We camped on the Tchefuncte River in Madisonville as a teenager and had great times.  The State park has changed a lot in 45 years but then so have I.  But the memories are still there. 
This is the lighthouse that has been there since 1834.

this is my sketch

I combined several photos to get the lighthouse I remembered as a kid.
The last 10 years has been quite a journey for me.   Major ups and major downs but I always manage to reinvent myself it just took longer to do this time (that's what age does I guess).  But I am back  this time taking photos of my own back yard so to speak.  Along with that I am doing watercolor sketch's of several of them.   I am enjoying traveling down memory lane.   Its fun to go back to places of your childhood and see if its the way you remember it.
