Travel Your Country--it'll be good for you

Mr. Gauld Goes to Nantucket, MA!

Brandt Point Light House

ALTERNATE VIEW: Brandt Point
Light House from the boat...

On to the Nantucket Whaling Museum-

This poor whale washed up on the
shore on New Year's Eve in
1997...he had a tooth ache which
got infected which probably
killed him (whales don't have any
good dentists...).

See?

Tooth ache!

This photograph represents how
big a whale could have been when
confronted by a boat built by
folks like you and
me...

Nantucket WILL go away someday...

This little island is
actually disappearing. This
photo shows what it looks like in
2009... (the rubble in the middle
of the photo is the old lighthouse
foundation)

2002

7 years ago, before they moved
the lighthouse away from the
beach...

This place is toast...

Current geological estimates
indicate that Nantucket, due to
erosion and sea level rise, will
probably be off the map within
300-400 years. VISIT WHILE YOU
CAN!!!
