00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,600
Hi everyone, I'm Emily.
2
00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:02,600
And I'm Vince.
3
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,600
And this is the Lighthouse Lowdown.
4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,600
Welcome to a Sunday morning in the podcast.
5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,600
We're in the RipRap studio.
6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,000
And today we've got our Starbucks coffee
7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
and we're gonna tee things off.
8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,200
I had a free one with my star accumulation
9
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,400
and that's why I always get a large
10
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,400
with an extra shot of espresso and almond milk.
11
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,000
Tell everyone what your order is
12
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,200
in case they want to send you one.
13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:39,000
Oh my gosh.
14
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,600
Well, if you want to, you should go to our Linktree link
15
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,000
that's in our show notes.
16
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,800
You can send us a coffee.
17
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,600
But it's actually a coin in our treasure chest.
18
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,200
It's the way that we have it written out.
19
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,000
Yeah.
20
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
But that coin will go towards coffee.
21
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,600
Oh, another fun thing having to do with coffee
22
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,000
is that Captain Cecil Coffee is sending us
23
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,800
a couple bags of their Ground Atlantic coffee, I think.
24
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:03,800
Nice.
25
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,200
We'll post their information on the episode
26
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,200
where we do this.
27
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,800
But Vince and I are gonna go ahead and give it a try
28
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,000
and tell you guys how it is.
29
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,200
And then we'll be doing a giveaway
30
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,000
for a bag of their Atlantic coffee.
31
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,000
So you guys won't want to miss that one.
32
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,000
I think it's, their branding is very on par for us.
33
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,600
Yeah, I've never had Captain Cecil's coffee,
34
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,400
but their Instagram.
35
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,600
No matter what, you gotta check their Instagram out.
36
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:30,600
It's really cool.
37
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,800
First off, it matches our theme, Nonicle Lighthouse.
38
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,000
But they have very good photography.
39
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
I don't know if they all have one person that does that.
40
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:39,800
I don't know.
41
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,400
We've been a fan of Captain Cecil's Instagram for a while.
42
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:42,800
Yeah.
43
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,400
The first time I made it on Instagram,
44
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,000
actually, they were one of the first people I followed.
45
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,800
So we're happy to be doing a little collaboration with them
46
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,000
and get to give you guys a free bag of their coffee.
47
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:51,800
So much fun.
48
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,400
And they have new packaging, so you guys
49
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:54,600
will get to see it all.
50
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,800
Our other sponsor for today is Newegg.com.
51
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,400
They're a standing sponsor with us.
52
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,000
So anytime you need something computer related,
53
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,200
tech related, check out our link.
54
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,200
That'll take you to their website.
55
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,000
And then anything that you purchase on there,
56
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,200
we get 3% of that back.
57
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,000
So I actually used that link yesterday.
58
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,400
And I ordered a ergonomic, upright mouse.
59
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,200
So I'm excited to get that.
60
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,000
A little bit of cash back in our lives.
61
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
A little bit of cash back.
62
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,800
So we appreciate Newegg's support.
63
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,400
We appreciate your support as well.
64
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:26,200
Yes.
65
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,800
And now we're going to dive into our episode.
66
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,400
So I do have a history buoy.
67
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,500
It has nothing to do with lighthouses,
68
00:02:32,500 --> 00:02:34,100
but it is a little bit nautical.
69
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:36,100
And I'm actually really excited to talk about it
70
00:02:36,100 --> 00:02:38,600
because it's something I always knew about
71
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,700
but discovered recently because I went to Hawaii
72
00:02:40,700 --> 00:02:42,700
and actually got to collect some.
73
00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:48,600
So my topic for the history buoy is sea glass.
74
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,300
Oh, it's pretty.
75
00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:49,800
I know.
76
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,000
It's a little bit of a blurry picture, but you know.
77
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,800
We do see pictures.
78
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,000
We'll have Instagram as well as YouTube.
79
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:56,800
Oh, yeah, yeah.
80
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,000
YouTube, we do a screen share.
81
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,000
So you see everything that we're seeing the whole time.
82
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:00,500
Yeah.
83
00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:03,200
And we've kind of, I don't like this as much,
84
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,500
but I feel like we're making it harder for people
85
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:09,000
to just listen to the podcast and not watch it on YouTube.
86
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,200
Because I'm like, oh, yeah, see, it's over here.
87
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,000
It's over here.
88
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,800
And it's like no one listening to the podcast
89
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,400
would be able to know what I'm talking about.
90
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,200
So I'm just trying to, I got to get back
91
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,800
into the mindset of describing things first
92
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,800
and that you and I can look at it.
93
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,200
But you know.
94
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,200
I'll try to do that as well.
95
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,800
Keep everybody in the loop.
96
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:26,600
In the loop, dude.
97
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,000
Yeah.
98
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:28,500
Right.
99
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:29,700
OK, so sea glass.
100
00:03:29,700 --> 00:03:32,800
OK, these are seen commonly when you go to beaches,
101
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,800
very specific ones that I'll talk about as well.
102
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,300
And actually highly sought after by local artists
103
00:03:37,300 --> 00:03:41,200
that live around lakes and oceans.
104
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,500
Because they're common in jewelry
105
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:46,400
and some colors are extremely rare.
106
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,800
And so it's kind of like hunting.
107
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,300
You know, you're doing sea glass.
108
00:03:50,300 --> 00:03:50,900
Collection.
109
00:03:50,900 --> 00:03:51,400
Yeah.
110
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,400
And we actually talked about that recently
111
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,200
is that people that look for sea glass,
112
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,000
it's like a big thing.
113
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,800
It's like a community of people that look for sea glass.
114
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,400
Same thing as people that look for shark teeth and stuff.
115
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:04,900
Oh, yeah.
116
00:04:04,900 --> 00:04:06,400
Yeah, like while I was in Florida,
117
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,700
people were just looking for shark teeth in the morning.
118
00:04:08,700 --> 00:04:11,000
I would walk by someone, any shark teeth?
119
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,300
And I'm like, oh, I found one.
120
00:04:12,300 --> 00:04:14,200
But that was the moment that I realized
121
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,200
that everyone was out there looking for shark teeth
122
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,400
and not just for seashells.
123
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,900
Because I was looking for seashells
124
00:04:18,900 --> 00:04:20,400
and I just happened to find a shark tooth.
125
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:21,800
And I was like, oh, cool.
126
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:22,700
That is cool.
127
00:04:22,700 --> 00:04:24,700
Yeah, and then they asked me as I'm walking by.
128
00:04:24,700 --> 00:04:26,000
And I'm like, yeah, I did find one.
129
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,400
And they're like, oh, it's like a rejuvenation of searching.
130
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,400
They're on the trail.
131
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,400
They got it.
132
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,200
I found a little bit of sea glass in Hawaii
133
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,400
during Christmas time.
134
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,200
And the beach was actually full of them.
135
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,700
They're really small pieces.
136
00:04:38,700 --> 00:04:41,800
And I'll talk about the rarity and importance
137
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,000
of the color of sea glass that you find.
138
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,400
So I was finding pieces that are deemed very common.
139
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,600
Didn't find red or orange or anything like that.
140
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,300
But that's kind of what people are looking for
141
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:54,600
is those rare colors.
142
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,600
What is this?
143
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,440
What is sea glass?
144
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,200
Sea glass is, a lot of people think
145
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,800
that it's a naturally occurring object.
146
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,600
But it's actually just broken glass
147
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,800
that spends anywhere between 20 to 200 years
148
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,000
being tossed around and then comes back up on shore
149
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000
looking like this, this tumbled rock.
150
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,700
And any glass that you find that isn't as tumbled
151
00:05:17,700 --> 00:05:20,600
is not really deemed sea glass
152
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,300
because it needs to spend at least 20 years
153
00:05:23,300 --> 00:05:25,700
tumbling around to get this effect.
154
00:05:25,700 --> 00:05:29,400
And can show up anywhere after 200 years as well.
155
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:30,700
A minimum of 20 years?
156
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:31,540
Yeah.
157
00:05:31,540 --> 00:05:34,000
So glass from land.
158
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:34,840
Mm-hmm.
159
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:35,680
Okay.
160
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,600
Yeah, so it could even be like windshields and stuff break.
161
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,140
And then the thing is if they show up earlier than 20 years,
162
00:05:42,140 --> 00:05:43,360
they don't look like sea glass.
163
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:44,680
So they're not sea glass.
164
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,960
So the 20 years is kind of like the minimum cap
165
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,400
of when it could wash up on shore
166
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,940
and you'd say that's sea glass.
167
00:05:49,940 --> 00:05:50,780
Yeah.
168
00:05:50,780 --> 00:05:53,400
I wonder, well windshields today are made of safety glass.
169
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:54,240
Mm-hmm.
170
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,440
Which is like high stress.
171
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:56,880
So when it breaks. Yeah, little pieces.
172
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:57,720
It shatters.
173
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,180
But I wonder, yeah, yeah, sorry to interrupt.
174
00:06:01,180 --> 00:06:03,440
The size, I don't know what size these are,
175
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:04,440
but the size that comes up,
176
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:05,680
I wonder how big the glass was
177
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:06,800
that started to make that piece.
178
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,040
Yeah, well most of the sea glass that I found in Hawaii
179
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,840
were like little pea sized.
180
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:11,680
Oh cool.
181
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,480
Yeah, very tiny or like a fingernail or something.
182
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,580
But some people find some pretty big pieces.
183
00:06:16,580 --> 00:06:20,440
But since it's glass, it's like for it to be large,
184
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,880
it would be large and thin
185
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,000
because it came from like a bottle or something.
186
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000
But the older it is, the thicker it can be
187
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,680
because glass, like bottles back then
188
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,520
were a lot thicker than what we have today.
189
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,240
It's like glass pieces are physically tumbled
190
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,200
by waves and stuff and then chemically as well
191
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,200
because of all the salt in the water.
192
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,080
And there's- Seyenne did salt.
193
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,680
Yeah, and there's actually beach glass,
194
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,320
which is freshwater glass.
195
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,560
So that would come out commonly from like the Great Lakes.
196
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:47,960
It's a lot less frosted
197
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,520
because there's no salt aspect coming in.
198
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:51,360
Interesting.
199
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,960
Yeah, so you can tell the difference between.
200
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,120
Sea glass is also called drift glass.
201
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,160
They're interchangeable.
202
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,840
And actually a lot of the glass we pick up
203
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:00,120
can come from shipwrecks.
204
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,960
So it's kind of a cool thing.
205
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:02,800
That's gorgeous.
206
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,700
We're looking at a photo.
207
00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:04,560
I can't tell the scale,
208
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,400
but it looks like a collection of pebbles,
209
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,400
blues and pinks and red and green, clear.
210
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,400
It's a big variety.
211
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,040
Somebody's proud of this collection a bit.
212
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,520
Well, sea glass can also be like pottery pieces
213
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:24,520
or like porcelain, like from China or something.
214
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:25,800
Ceramic, yeah.
215
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,400
I have on here that the beach glass,
216
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,140
I was talking about freshwater,
217
00:07:30,140 --> 00:07:31,320
it's common from the Great Lakes
218
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,100
and more commonly is embossed with labels.
219
00:07:34,100 --> 00:07:37,280
It's like larger pieces that aren't ground down so far.
220
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,300
So you can still see like if there are labels on it,
221
00:07:39,300 --> 00:07:42,040
which makes it easier to trace its origin.
222
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,120
Sea glass is most often found in places like Scotland,
223
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,360
Hawaii, Bermuda, Southern Spain, Australia,
224
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,840
Northeast England and Northeast US.
225
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,360
And all of those are noted for having an abundance of glass.
226
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,880
So like you can find sea glass anywhere,
227
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,200
but you'd be most likely to find it in those areas.
228
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:02,280
Okay.
229
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,240
And it's getting harder to find
230
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,760
since plastic is taking over the world
231
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,920
and people are, it's becoming more popular
232
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,680
to look for sea glass, like while you're on vacation
233
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,200
or local artists use that a lot.
234
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,200
So it's just getting harder and harder to find.
235
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,760
But the colors are the best part about looking for sea glass
236
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,100
in my opinion, makes it the most fun.
237
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:23,400
And obviously the color comes from its origin
238
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,960
and colors are common or uncommon depending on the likelihood
239
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,600
of the origin being in the ocean and how old it is.
240
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,900
So the most common colors are Kelly green,
241
00:08:33,900 --> 00:08:35,680
clear, brown and white.
242
00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:38,740
And these can come from beer bottles, juices,
243
00:08:38,740 --> 00:08:43,400
just normal glasses like plates or water cups
244
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,720
or something and windshields.
245
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,640
And then one in every 25 to a hundred pieces are Jade,
246
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:55,000
Amber, which comes from whiskey, medicine, spirits
247
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,160
and early bleach bottles.
248
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,960
Lime green, which come from soda bottles in the 1960s.
249
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,860
Ice blue, which is also medicine bottles, soda bottles,
250
00:09:03,860 --> 00:09:07,800
Inca bottles and fruit bottles from 19th and 20th centuries.
251
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,520
So pretty cool.
252
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,080
And then one in every 50 to 100 pieces are a specific type
253
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,920
of green, I didn't look it up, but I think it'd probably
254
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,280
be recognizable that are from Coca Cola
255
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,760
and Dr. Pepper bottles from the mid 1900s.
256
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:26,080
One in every 200 to 1000 pieces are purple, citron,
257
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,240
citron, citron?
258
00:09:29,660 --> 00:09:31,920
It's like a yellow, right?
259
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,400
Yeah, like a orange yellow.
260
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:34,400
It's like citrus.
261
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,800
There's opaque white, which comes from when milk came
262
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,800
in glass bottles and cornflower blue, which is from early
263
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,720
milk of magnesium bottles and poison bottles.
264
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,560
Of course.
265
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:50,220
I was like, oh cool.
266
00:09:50,220 --> 00:09:53,200
Also from early vapor rub containers.
267
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,400
Okay.
268
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,320
And also aqua, which are from certain bottles
269
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,080
in the 19th century and ball mason jars.
270
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,020
And then the most rare colors, and this is one in every
271
00:10:03,020 --> 00:10:06,960
1000 to 10,000 pieces of sea glass that are found
272
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,680
can be gray, pink, which is from Great Depression era
273
00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:14,540
plates, teal, which is from Mattius wine bottles,
274
00:10:14,540 --> 00:10:16,860
which I looked up and they're actually pretty cool.
275
00:10:16,860 --> 00:10:19,780
Black, which is actually a very dark olive green
276
00:10:19,780 --> 00:10:24,780
that you can't see just by like finding it on the sand.
277
00:10:24,780 --> 00:10:28,480
So a lot of people mistake them for just like normal pieces
278
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,600
of rock that come up.
279
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,360
They look exactly the same until you get a bright light
280
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,320
under it and you can tell it's kind of olive.
281
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,760
But these are from 18th century gin, beer, and wine bottles.
282
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:39,840
So very old.
283
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,980
There's also yellow, which is from 1930s Vaseline containers.
284
00:10:43,980 --> 00:10:48,120
Red, which is Schlitz bottles and nautical lights.
285
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:48,960
Schlitz.
286
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:49,800
Schlitz.
287
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,160
It's a beer.
288
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,000
Yeah.
289
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,320
I saw the bottles that they made that were red
290
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,760
from the 50s or something, I think it was.
291
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,520
And then the last one's orange, which I think would be hard
292
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,320
to tell from like amber.
293
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,560
Red, orange, amber, yeah.
294
00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:09,200
But that one's apparently the most rare.
295
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,240
That's the one that's won in 10,000 cases.
296
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,420
So and they didn't have anything listed for where
297
00:11:14,420 --> 00:11:15,260
that could come from.
298
00:11:15,260 --> 00:11:17,040
So I think that's probably where the rarity comes in.
299
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:17,880
Orange glass.
300
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,920
There was some weird orange glass item that was broken.
301
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,480
The glass all has its original color by manufacturer.
302
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:27,320
Yeah.
303
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:32,320
And then the sand and salt, if it's ocean bound,
304
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,920
are what give it the finish,
305
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,080
but the color doesn't change.
306
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:35,920
Is that true?
307
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,920
I think maybe the color is a little bit muted.
308
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,360
In the picture that we have up for people to look at,
309
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,720
the red is still pretty vibrant.
310
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,440
And so I don't know if that's common for the rest of them
311
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,560
that you can trust that the color is going to be exactly
312
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:48,400
the same.
313
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,360
Considering that black glass exists and it's not gray
314
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:52,800
by the time you find it.
315
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,000
And it's like this dark olive that you can't see
316
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,320
unless you're really looking for it.
317
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,740
I think probably the color is pretty much the same.
318
00:12:00,740 --> 00:12:03,960
Just has a frosted appearance.
319
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,480
I wonder if there's people out there making it.
320
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,440
Like you could use, like there's tumblers people use
321
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,360
for cleaning ammunition.
322
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,680
There is artificial sea glass now.
323
00:12:13,680 --> 00:12:16,060
Cause people like to use it for decorations.
324
00:12:16,060 --> 00:12:20,940
And when people fill glass containers with rocks
325
00:12:20,940 --> 00:12:23,360
and seashells for decoration, it's stuff like that.
326
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,520
They definitely have artificial sea glass.
327
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:27,360
It's cool.
328
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,920
I've never thought about, I guess I have thought about it
329
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,720
some, but I didn't think about the ocean.
330
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,560
About the environmental impact of using glass containers
331
00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:37,120
versus plastics.
332
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:42,120
To where 20 to 200 years you'll get an artistic pebble.
333
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,200
Right?
334
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,240
Versus I don't know the plastic impact.
335
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,600
Maybe that's something we can look into.
336
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,440
But I'm sure it's worse from what I've heard.
337
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,360
But there's probably no harm to having glass in,
338
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,420
I mean, or it's probably a relatively low harm.
339
00:12:56,420 --> 00:13:00,120
Glass particles that are all dissipated into new sand.
340
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:00,960
I guess.
341
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:01,780
I don't know.
342
00:13:01,780 --> 00:13:04,040
It's beyond my knowledge, but it's interesting.
343
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,720
Yeah, but that's what I got for sea glass.
344
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:06,560
Cool.
345
00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:07,520
That is a fun little thing to cover.
346
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:08,360
It's gorgeous.
347
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,200
Do you have any sea glass?
348
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,020
I do.
349
00:13:10,020 --> 00:13:10,860
It's in my glass room.
350
00:13:10,860 --> 00:13:13,660
I was thinking about putting a couple in some of the
351
00:13:13,660 --> 00:13:15,160
coasters that I'm working on.
352
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,000
What?
353
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:16,820
You have a glass room?
354
00:13:16,820 --> 00:13:17,660
Why don't you tell us about that?
355
00:13:17,660 --> 00:13:18,840
Oh my gosh.
356
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,760
I do stained glass.
357
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:21,800
I have a small business.
358
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,440
It's called Blue Glassworks.
359
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,600
You can find me on Instagram.
360
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:30,240
And I mostly make panels, some jewelry.
361
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,040
I'm working on coasters and some propagation stations.
362
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,320
If anybody's a planty type.
363
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,160
Yeah, check me out.
364
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,000
Cool.
365
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:38,820
At Blue Glassworks.
366
00:13:38,820 --> 00:13:40,520
And so we're gonna move on to the lighthouse.
367
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,720
This one is very special because of its appearance.
368
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,800
The lighthouse we're covering is in Spain.
369
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:48,920
Oh, go ahead and put it up.
370
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,280
Let's pull up a photo.
371
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,240
Pull it up, Emily.
372
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,940
It is the Faro de Ajo Lighthouse,
373
00:13:54,940 --> 00:13:58,400
which is translated to Garlic Lighthouse.
374
00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,680
Can you pull that up for me?
375
00:13:59,680 --> 00:14:00,520
Oh yeah.
376
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,080
For us, it's on a 65 inch screen.
377
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,680
That's about two feet away.
378
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:06,560
But for you all, much better.
379
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:07,400
Cool.
380
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:08,240
That's gorgeous.
381
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,640
I like the pure white.
382
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:10,480
It's very neat.
383
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:11,480
Yes, it is neat.
384
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,400
And I like the double gallery we've got going on.
385
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,620
I'm not, I don't really know the meaning
386
00:14:17,620 --> 00:14:21,800
of having a double gallery, especially for viewing purposes
387
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,760
because you're not allowed to climb the lighthouse
388
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,680
or take a look at it.
389
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,600
And we'll talk about the history,
390
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,360
but this lighthouse was built later than the original design
391
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,120
and so I'm not sure why the second gallery is there.
392
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,960
You think they just had extra room in the budget?
393
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,200
Maybe, they were just like,
394
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:40,000
oh, it was accidentally copy and pasted on the blue beam.
395
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,600
You know what, they probably,
396
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,120
it's a drawing mistake.
397
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,680
They probably went ahead and installed the lower one
398
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,520
and then they're like, oh no.
399
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,240
We'll just put a ladder between the two.
400
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,880
So this is located in Cantabria, Spain in Cabo de Ajo,
401
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,040
which is just Cape garlic.
402
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,840
It's an active guide to navigation.
403
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,620
So it's being used today for navigating
404
00:15:01,620 --> 00:15:04,320
around this Northern coast of Spain.
405
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,120
It's a white light and has a flash pattern of G,
406
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,200
you know what, I'm just gonna show you
407
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,640
what this looks like, because we talked about this.
408
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:14,480
Flash patterns?
409
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,000
Yes, the flash patterns.
410
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,320
This is one that I have never seen before listed
411
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,040
and I'm wondering if it's because the US doesn't use it,
412
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,240
but it took me a long time to figure out
413
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,080
what the heck this.
414
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,280
Spain's got their own flash patterns.
415
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:27,120
Yeah.
416
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,120
I guess everybody probably would, right?
417
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,580
Yeah, and you know, this is listed as a possible one
418
00:15:30,580 --> 00:15:33,200
and so it's not like we have never used it.
419
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,320
It's definitely not common for us to use this in the US.
420
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,920
Here's a stupid thing to say, but the ocean looks huge.
421
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:40,760
I know.
422
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:42,600
I know it.
423
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:43,440
Characteristics.
424
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:44,920
Yeah, here we have light characteristics.
425
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,640
Maybe I'll do another history buoy about it,
426
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,240
try to explain it a little bit better.
427
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,680
Or now that we have pictures available,
428
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,680
anyone who can't see this, it helped to see it visually,
429
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,600
what I'm talking about, but the flash pattern
430
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,880
for the garlic lighthouse is group occulting,
431
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,120
which is kind of like that whole,
432
00:16:05,020 --> 00:16:06,800
is a zebra black with white stripes
433
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,200
or white with black stripes?
434
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,840
It's like normally we see flashing light,
435
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,800
which is listed, or group flashing,
436
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,360
which is basically periods of darkness
437
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,720
that are interrupted by periods of light.
438
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,880
And the flashing is usually shorter
439
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,120
than the darkness periods.
440
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,840
But a group occulting is the opposite
441
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,000
in which we have larger moments of light interrupted
442
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,600
by moments of eclipses that are shorter.
443
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,280
The group occulting just means that you have these moments
444
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,240
of darkness in groups of some number, usually three,
445
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,440
which is what we see on the screen,
446
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,640
and what's also true for the garlic lighthouse.
447
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,320
So it's anti-flashing.
448
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:47,160
Yeah.
449
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:48,800
It's constant light that's interrupted
450
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,760
rather than darkness that has a flash introduced.
451
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:52,580
Interesting though.
452
00:16:52,580 --> 00:16:54,240
But yeah, I haven't seen group occulting before,
453
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,400
so it's kind of special for this lighthouse.
454
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,160
It's also white, but since we're in Spain,
455
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,560
white is blanco.
456
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:02,400
Blanco.
457
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,640
But then the flash pattern is GPOC3,
458
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,720
which is that group occulting three.
459
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,520
And then B, and I was like, it's not blue
460
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,120
because it says it's white.
461
00:17:12,120 --> 00:17:13,420
So it took me forever to realize
462
00:17:13,420 --> 00:17:14,920
that we're talking about Spain here.
463
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,680
So of course it's gonna be.
464
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:17,720
Yeah, you would have thrown me off
465
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:18,560
if you didn't give me that hint.
466
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,440
Yeah, it says that the group occulting period
467
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,280
is a total of 12 seconds,
468
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,120
and it has a range of 17 nautical miles.
469
00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:26,960
So that's what we're working with.
470
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:27,800
Pretty good.
471
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:28,620
Yeah, pretty good.
472
00:17:28,620 --> 00:17:31,100
It is the last lighthouse to be built in Contabria,
473
00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:33,060
so it's kind of special in that way.
474
00:17:33,060 --> 00:17:36,440
And starting in 2020, it became a masterpiece,
475
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,280
which I'm glad to know.
476
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,120
Starting in 2020?
477
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:40,040
Mm-hmm, the year of COVID.
478
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,200
Is this the newest lighthouse we've talked about?
479
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,040
Like the most recent?
480
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:43,860
I think so.
481
00:17:43,860 --> 00:17:44,700
It's definitely.
482
00:17:44,700 --> 00:17:46,480
I mean, other than Paradise Island.
483
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,400
It's interesting because you think about.
484
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,240
Being restored.
485
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,700
The last lighthouse built in Spain
486
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:55,240
is going to be a lot,
487
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,400
like America is very young.
488
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,640
And the very first lighthouse to be built there
489
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,460
is 1716, it's the Boston Light.
490
00:18:03,460 --> 00:18:05,560
There were lighthouses built in Spain
491
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,440
in the first century.
492
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,320
Talking about a Roman lighthouse in the first century.
493
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,680
So any thing that says this is the last lighthouse
494
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,760
to be built in Spain could be a lot longer ago
495
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,200
than a lighthouse, the last lighthouse built in America.
496
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,680
We have lighthouses that were built in America
497
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,200
in the 2000s.
498
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:26,800
So I just thought it was interesting.
499
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,760
The 2020, there's a change coming,
500
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,360
but where is, so this is on the north coast of Spain?
501
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:33,440
Yeah, do you wanna see a picture?
502
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,120
Yeah, is it near a port?
503
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:36,440
Or is it just protecting?
504
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,280
Because Spain, obviously it's a long coast.
505
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,000
I don't think this is near a port.
506
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,540
This is, the location of this lighthouse
507
00:18:42,540 --> 00:18:44,000
is in someone's farmland.
508
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,320
So you see like lots of cows and stuff around.
509
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,160
So it's not near a large city.
510
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,540
And I know looking up on the map,
511
00:18:49,540 --> 00:18:51,600
you can kind of see this area is super rural.
512
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,520
Maybe it's just a, I mean, if it's rural,
513
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,880
it would really suck to shipwreck there.
514
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,320
Let alone anywhere, but.
515
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,200
Yeah, that's true.
516
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,600
Like you're pretty far from help.
517
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,160
Someone's got a port somewhere
518
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,320
because there's a sailboat out there.
519
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,040
Oh, I do think the port.
520
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,200
Santander, I don't know if that's the right way to say it,
521
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,280
but I did actually read about that.
522
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:11,920
I'm gonna mention it later.
523
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,360
Here is a Google map.
524
00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:17,800
Looking at the northern edge of Spain.
525
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,180
And here's like a nearby port.
526
00:19:19,180 --> 00:19:20,840
We got an airport coming in.
527
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,480
It's a big inlet, yeah.
528
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,160
Santander, I have something to say about that later.
529
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,880
But Ajo is right over here.
530
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,240
So it's kind of close.
531
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:30,500
So if you're, for some reason,
532
00:19:30,500 --> 00:19:31,540
if you're following the coast,
533
00:19:31,540 --> 00:19:32,880
you'd maybe be able to use it.
534
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,440
Yeah, and there's also this entrance, La Sorozuela.
535
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:38,520
Uh-huh, mm-hmm.
536
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,520
It doesn't look like a main,
537
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:40,520
it doesn't look like a main port,
538
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,240
but it definitely looks,
539
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,320
maybe kind of bougie. Maria de Ajo.
540
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,960
Okay, Maria, you said onion?
541
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,960
No, garlic. Oh, garlic, yeah.
542
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:49,800
What? I don't know.
543
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,580
Is this like, do they grow a lot of garlic here?
544
00:19:52,580 --> 00:19:53,420
I don't know.
545
00:19:53,420 --> 00:19:54,240
It's a gorgeous,
546
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,200
Cantabria has a gorgeous Google photo right there.
547
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,320
Oh, it does, yeah.
548
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:58,720
Trees. Look at the water.
549
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,920
Old buildings right up against the water.
550
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,680
Mm. Gorgeous.
551
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,720
Honestly, it's like a place to visit.
552
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,320
Google does a good job of making me want to travel.
553
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,320
They're like, what do you think we were built for?
554
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:11,440
Okay, really cool.
555
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,160
All right, it's hard to derail, but.
556
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,000
No, no, it's good.
557
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:14,840
It's pretty white.
558
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,920
It needs a little paint on those guards up there.
559
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,280
That's another thing I'm gonna mention,
560
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,440
is that this lighthouse needs a little bit of help.
561
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:22,320
2020.
562
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,440
So, the history.
563
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,280
Let's go, okay, let's go way back,
564
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:26,720
but not very far back because.
565
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:27,560
Yes.
566
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,520
Way not very far.
567
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,680
All the way back to 1907.
568
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,680
So, it's still over 100 years ago.
569
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,440
The government of Spain planned the construction
570
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,840
of a 59 foot tower, an engine room,
571
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,560
and a two-story rectangular cottage
572
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,160
to house up to six keepers,
573
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,360
which is a lot for just a little tower.
574
00:20:45,360 --> 00:20:47,320
It was projected to be one of the most important
575
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,560
to be built on the Bay of Biscay in 19,
576
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,080
oh, and in 1909, the plans were approved
577
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,600
for this lighthouse to be built.
578
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,080
And the Bay of Biscay is just the body of water
579
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:58,400
that rises up against. Oh, okay.
580
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:03,040
In 1914, the nearby Cabo Mayor lighthouse was electrified,
581
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,880
which was a lot bigger than this one.
582
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,800
Kind of like one that was built a long time ago,
583
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,200
very necessary for this area.
584
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,600
And it was electrified, which gave it a more powerful light,
585
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,320
which they decided deemed this one unnecessary,
586
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,920
which would not be true because three shipwrecks
587
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,120
occurred shortly after that,
588
00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:24,360
which kind of put this lighthouse back on the map.
589
00:21:24,360 --> 00:21:26,960
So, yeah, garlic was back on the map
590
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,400
and approved again in 1924,
591
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,800
building plans approved in 1928,
592
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,320
and then they completed the lighthouse
593
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,280
two years later in 1930.
594
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:36,120
Okay.
595
00:21:36,120 --> 00:21:38,400
It wasn't electrified until 1962,
596
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:39,800
which kind of goes hand in hand
597
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,320
with me talking about this being a very rural area.
598
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,040
Like there's a chance that rural areas
599
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,400
didn't get even electrified until the 60s anyway,
600
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,560
because we're talking about the Cabo Mayor lighthouse
601
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,640
being electrified in 1914.
602
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,160
So that's a lot.
603
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:55,800
That's almost 50 years,
604
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,440
half a century before this lighthouse is electrified.
605
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,400
Well, all these electric places that are off on their own
606
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,240
either need cable run to them or they need solar power.
607
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:09,440
Solar power wasn't really developed until 70s, 80s.
608
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,240
Well, do you think even telephone lines
609
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,640
wouldn't go to farms and stuff for a long time?
610
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:15,520
Long time. Yeah.
611
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:16,360
So not that surprising,
612
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:20,120
but a little crazy considering a close lighthouse
613
00:22:20,120 --> 00:22:23,120
of this one was electrified 50 years earlier.
614
00:22:23,120 --> 00:22:26,040
So definitely says something about its location, I think.
615
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:26,880
Okay.
616
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,880
In 1980, Fernando Rodriguez Perez
617
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,560
designed a new cylindrical concrete tower
618
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,320
a little over 52 and a half feet tall.
619
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,120
And so that's the one that we're seeing today
620
00:22:37,120 --> 00:22:38,320
because the original,
621
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,560
the new one was built next to the original
622
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,600
and the original one was destroyed.
623
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,400
I'm not sure why this happened.
624
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:45,240
I did look it up.
625
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,680
Why was the original lighthouse taking down
626
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,280
and nothing came up for it?
627
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:50,600
And so it's not,
628
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,240
it's maybe that it was just left alone for so long,
629
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,520
but by 1980, so they had electrified it in 62.
630
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,160
So why, I don't know.
631
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,560
I think maybe it's just that it hadn't been touched
632
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,160
in so long that they found it cheaper to build a new one
633
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,960
rather than to restore the old one.
634
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:08,960
Interesting.
635
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:13,960
So it being the youngest lighthouse in Spain
636
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:15,880
could be referring to this one,
637
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,080
which was I think completed in 1985.
638
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,000
Okay.
639
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,680
Or it could be the one that was completed in 1930.
640
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:24,600
I didn't check.
641
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:25,440
So that's-
642
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:26,260
Both, yeah.
643
00:23:26,260 --> 00:23:27,680
In long history, they're not that far apart.
644
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:28,520
Exactly.
645
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:29,440
In our lives, long way.
646
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,840
But yeah, so that is all the history
647
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,140
that I found on this lighthouse.
648
00:23:33,140 --> 00:23:36,480
It's kind of the new stuff is what's big news
649
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:37,320
for this lighthouse.
650
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:42,160
So 2015, the city council of Barreo
651
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,480
requested a grant from the ministry of public works
652
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,640
of government of Cantabria to make a perimeter fence
653
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,080
parallel to the cliffs to protect people
654
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,220
and a pedestrian path that's 10 feet wide
655
00:23:53,220 --> 00:23:55,400
to increase tourism around this area.
656
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,760
So in this picture, you can see some people walking.
657
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,320
Well, you can see people walking on the pedestrian trail
658
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:02,920
and then further in the background of it,
659
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,000
you can see this parallel fence
660
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:05,840
that they're leaning up against.
661
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,120
The cliff edge just past the, okay.
662
00:24:08,120 --> 00:24:13,120
They put $70,000 towards making this
663
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,600
like a tourist designated area.
664
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:16,840
Yeah, just with this walkway.
665
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,560
So you can't go up to the lighthouse,
666
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,640
but you can walk around it.
667
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,840
And actually it became pretty popular.
668
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,840
Like it put it on the map, you know,
669
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,400
like a place to go visit.
670
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:26,240
Yeah.
671
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,880
I think they had 35,000 people visit here
672
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,440
in the three years before, you know,
673
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:33,680
before the thing I'm gonna talk about.
674
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:34,800
Yeah.
675
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,480
So it had some visitors.
676
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,200
Basically what they wanted to do
677
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:44,040
was bring tourist money to Ajo.
678
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:44,980
They just wanted more people.
679
00:24:44,980 --> 00:24:46,040
It's more rural area.
680
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:46,880
There's not a lot to see.
681
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,120
So they wanted to put something on the map
682
00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:49,640
for people to be like, oh, we should go see that
683
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,520
while we're passing through the area.
684
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,200
And it used to cost just one Euro
685
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,800
to come in and walk around the lighthouse
686
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,280
and look out over the cliffs.
687
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:58,160
It's very pretty.
688
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,840
You know, there's reasons to visit.
689
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:01,000
That's very cheap.
690
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,840
Yeah, I know.
691
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,140
And now it's free.
692
00:25:03,140 --> 00:25:03,980
Nice.
693
00:25:03,980 --> 00:25:04,800
That's even cheaper.
694
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,160
Visits for this lighthouse
695
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,200
were about to increase significantly though
696
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:14,300
with the very controversial idea to paint the lighthouse,
697
00:25:14,300 --> 00:25:15,880
but not just paint.
698
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:20,520
We turn it into, we transform into a work of art.
699
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,840
And I'm gonna pull up a photo
700
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,840
to go with my dramatic statements.
701
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,640
Every lighthouse has a work of art.
702
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,640
That's the energy we wanna bring to this place.
703
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,800
Boom.
704
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,800
And also a nice view of the cliffs
705
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,000
and a nice beach over here.
706
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:35,960
Gorgeous area.
707
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,880
But look at what we've done to this lighthouse.
708
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,880
It looks smaller from further away.
709
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:43,720
Whoa.
710
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,000
It's only 52 feet tall.
711
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,160
Although if you look at the people in comparison,
712
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,000
it's pretty tall.
713
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:50,820
Yeah.
714
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:52,800
Okay, yeah.
715
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:54,120
That's a better photo.
716
00:25:54,120 --> 00:25:58,440
The magnificence, the colors, just very dramatic.
717
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,680
We've transformed this lighthouse into some artwork,
718
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:02,640
some custom artwork.
719
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,320
Some geometric rainbows for everyone who can't see.
720
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,760
Yeah, people really need to look it up.
721
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:14,400
What's so cool about this lighthouse is its visual-ness.
722
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,600
Contabrian artist Okuda San Miguel, I think.
723
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,000
I'm gonna do my best, but I think it's Okuda.
724
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,720
Was commissioned with a budget of $40,000.
725
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,080
So that is a ton of money.
726
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,840
That's kind of part of the controversy
727
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:32,240
around painting this lighthouse instead of restoring it.
728
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,760
We saw that picture just before it was painted
729
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,120
where you're like, oh, it could use a little bit of work.
730
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,680
And this money instead was going towards painting the lighthouse.
731
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,000
$40,000 to paint it.
732
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,880
Yes, so that's part of the controversy.
733
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:43,720
I'll go more into it.
734
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,520
There's a lot of bullet points.
735
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:46,840
But he completed the paintwork,
736
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,800
which he called Infinite Contabria in three days
737
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,680
using over 100 colors.
738
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,320
Although I saw some people say it was 70 colors,
739
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,440
and maybe the 100 is just being dramatic.
740
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,240
Fuel the fire.
741
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:01,560
It depicts local fauna.
742
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:02,840
So if you look closely into it,
743
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,060
you can kind of see some animals.
744
00:27:05,060 --> 00:27:05,900
There's birds.
745
00:27:05,900 --> 00:27:06,880
There's a tongue hanging out.
746
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,960
We got lots of colored squares and triangles
747
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,120
and some anchors.
748
00:27:12,120 --> 00:27:14,240
So lots going on.
749
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,360
I don't know if this was free-handed,
750
00:27:16,360 --> 00:27:19,520
if he just kind of came up with it as he went along.
751
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,280
But this is very classic.
752
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,600
This is his style of artwork.
753
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,920
You can see, well, let me look up.
754
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:26,840
It's very pretty.
755
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,360
So you can see his artwork.
756
00:27:28,360 --> 00:27:31,160
It's very, it works along with it.
757
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,320
Known artist, a lot of the same style.
758
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:38,120
Yeah, and I saw that some of the things that he did,
759
00:27:38,120 --> 00:27:41,680
he has a, you know, 1800 tequila.
760
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,120
He has a bottle.
761
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:45,200
He did a collab with them,
762
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,160
and he has a limited edition bottle for $180.
763
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,120
Would you mind looking it up?
764
00:27:49,120 --> 00:27:49,960
Yeah.
765
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,240
Or just put in 1800 up in your search.
766
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,080
That is cool.
767
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,240
Isn't that awesome?
768
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,440
Oh, why did I think it was $180?
769
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,120
You know what it was?
770
00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:03,840
I was looking it up on Bing,
771
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,160
so they probably just betrayed me.
772
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,400
180 proof.
773
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:08,440
Team Google.
774
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:09,360
That'd be something else.
775
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:10,640
Are you 21 or older? Yes, I am.
776
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:11,480
Don't you lie.
777
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:13,760
Oh, it's a series.
778
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,120
These are essential artists series.
779
00:28:16,120 --> 00:28:18,200
Essential artists, that must be fun.
780
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,640
Oh, I like the koala, is it?
781
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:21,480
Panda bear.
782
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:22,480
Oh yeah.
783
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:23,320
Those are cool.
784
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:24,160
There's a nice skull here.
785
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,840
$210 for six bottles, maybe?
786
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,120
Yeah, what size are they?
787
00:28:29,120 --> 00:28:30,320
That's really neat.
788
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:31,920
Okay, apparently it doesn't want me to reborn.
789
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:32,760
Oh well.
790
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,160
They're like, aren't you doing a podcast?
791
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:35,000
It's pretty neat.
792
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:35,840
You're gonna focus?
793
00:28:37,120 --> 00:28:38,280
Yeah, just thought those.
794
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,200
I don't think I've ever had 1800 tequila,
795
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,360
but that'd be cool.
796
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:42,200
I haven't either.
797
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:43,160
I'm not a big tequila person.
798
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:48,160
Or like margaritas, I'm not a fan of margaritas.
799
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,560
Anyway, so here's the whole controversy
800
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,600
that surrounds painting this lighthouse.
801
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:56,920
There's a couple of different things.
802
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,960
I mentioned that a lot of that money
803
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,280
could have gone towards fixing up the lighthouse,
804
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,040
and so it feels kind of like a shame.
805
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,720
You're covering up problems
806
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,760
that actually need to be fixed with paint.
807
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:08,600
Yeah.
808
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,280
The page that I was reading,
809
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:12,800
I'll link it at my show notes so you can read it too.
810
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,040
It has a lot more information
811
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,280
than what I'm just gonna kind of quickly cover here.
812
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,040
Cleans that lighthouses by regulation
813
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,960
have to be black and white.
814
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,000
That's not true for everywhere.
815
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,240
It could be true for Spain,
816
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,200
but I also couldn't find that anywhere.
817
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:31,200
Okuda remedied that by making the back of this lighthouse
818
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,240
appear purely black and white from a distance,
819
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,440
and you can kind of see a sliver of it from this photo.
820
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,280
Oh.
821
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,120
Let me try.
822
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,600
I thought you were gonna say he used so much surface area
823
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,480
as black and white and calculated it all.
824
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,320
Oh no.
825
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,120
That would be cool.
826
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,480
I don't think I saved a photo of it from the back.
827
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:50,840
It was a pretty cool picture.
828
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:51,800
See if you can pull it up.
829
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:52,880
Ah, here it is.
830
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,040
Okay, here's a good photo of it from the back.
831
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:56,880
Oh, that's cool.
832
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,640
Yeah, so from really far out to sea,
833
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:03,160
which you can see that the cliffs are so high up
834
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,800
that even if you're close to the shore,
835
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,880
this would probably still look like a white lighthouse
836
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:08,720
with a black stripe.
837
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,840
Like obviously there's a lot of other colors going on,
838
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,160
but he kind of took into consideration,
839
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,800
apparently, that by regulation
840
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,200
it has to be black and white
841
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,720
to be an active guide to navigation
842
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,440
and made it appear if this was black and white.
843
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:23,280
I thought that was pretty cool.
844
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,200
Yeah, if you can see the colors, you're too close.
845
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,040
Yeah.
846
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:26,880
If you're on a boat.
847
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,880
What is the whole point of this lighthouse?
848
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,280
That's funny.
849
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:31,880
Yeah, so that's one of the things.
850
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,480
Another was gentrification,
851
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,160
which I had to ask you about this morning.
852
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:36,080
What did you say?
853
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,400
It was urbanizing?
854
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,200
Yeah, to gentrify without Googling it,
855
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,360
I think it means to modernize, to make popular,
856
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:50,520
to make urban an area that becomes gentrified,
857
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,640
changes from what it was to become busy
858
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,640
and typically progressive.
859
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,440
So I guess that kind of, I get that a little bit.
860
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:02,800
Yeah, no, I get that.
861
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:03,800
We're lighthouse people.
862
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:04,800
We can just.
863
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,320
Like classical versus modern artistic.
864
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:09,400
Exactly, yeah.
865
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,040
So I can kind of see both sides
866
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,720
is that by painting it,
867
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,480
you're making it something really unique
868
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,600
that people come to see specifically,
869
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,920
but also you hope and wish that people
870
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,720
would be able to appreciate the natural lighthouse itself,
871
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,040
but that's just not really true.
872
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,800
People aren't like us where the lighthouse,
873
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,560
just being a lighthouse with all of its history
874
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,040
and cool facts and its location and everything
875
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,120
would be enough for us to go and visit it.
876
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:37,960
It's just people aren't like that.
877
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,320
Well, people will take, like resto mods is a controversy.
878
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,040
So resto mod, you take a classic vehicle,
879
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,200
like people will take a 1969 Camaro.
880
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:50,040
Oh no.
881
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,240
If you had a 69 Camaro, it's an awesome car,
882
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,720
but it just performance wise,
883
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,520
it just doesn't compete with like a modern Camry.
884
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,840
Like, you know, it's just not a, it doesn't keep up.
885
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:05,840
So you could take a 1969 sports car, muscle car of the day,
886
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,920
and then put new tech in it, you know, a Tesla battery,
887
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,960
and it's all of a sudden, it's this awesome performing car.
888
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,800
And some people love that, but it's not what it was.
889
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,280
It's a modern take on what it was.
890
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,520
So that's kind of the same.
891
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,080
People looking at this lighthouse.
892
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,040
Another thing is that they're taking so far into account
893
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,640
the interest of the visitor and not the local people,
894
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,520
because there wasn't a poll to decide
895
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,840
if people were gonna be okay with painting the lighthouse.
896
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,120
It was just paid, done, and then people were like,
897
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,460
hey, look at this.
898
00:32:39,460 --> 00:32:41,640
So it was kind of like, okay,
899
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,680
we know we're focusing on tourism.
900
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,740
We know we're trying to get more people to come here,
901
00:32:45,740 --> 00:32:48,000
but nobody asked what the locals felt
902
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,260
about painting this lighthouse.
903
00:32:49,260 --> 00:32:52,040
It was just, visitors will come here more likely
904
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,080
if we paint the lighthouse.
905
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,880
So that's another thing.
906
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,660
There's lots of things.
907
00:32:57,660 --> 00:33:01,360
And Okuda says, he has a lot to say about this as well,
908
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,000
because he's straight up in the middle of it.
909
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,320
And he's painted things like churches before,
910
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,760
and so he's kind of like, why are people throwing a fit
911
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,720
over this lighthouse when I've painted a church
912
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,180
to be black and white, or not black and white,
913
00:33:15,180 --> 00:33:17,840
yeah, you know, colorful, and there's drips
914
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,880
coming down the walls and it has something to do with 420.
915
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,880
I saw that in the title of the coverage.
916
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,040
So he's like, I don't understand that.
917
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,120
He says that the Spanish are mad at him for it
918
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,640
because they don't appreciate art from their own country.
919
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,640
So there's a little bit of bitterness.
920
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,400
It's like, oh, wow.
921
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:38,480
And this was during COVID.
922
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,680
So he says a lot, it's like keyboard warriors coming out.
923
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,560
Well, I think he's right about that.
924
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,800
Everybody got online and everybody continued to.
925
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:47,960
COVID thing is totally right.
926
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,560
You're like seeing it happen from far away.
927
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,440
You can say whatever you wanna say about it.
928
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,800
Okuda claims the point of art is to quote,
929
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,400
make you feel and not leave you indifferent,
930
00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,400
which he is accomplishing by this lighthouse,
931
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,120
regardless of how you feel about it,
932
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,520
unless you're indifferent and then that's not.
933
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,260
Yeah.
934
00:34:06,260 --> 00:34:07,640
It's pretty.
935
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,240
He says Port Authority has decided he gets eight years
936
00:34:10,240 --> 00:34:12,040
before they paint it white again.
937
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:17,040
I saw a lot of sources that said eight years
938
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,480
would be about how long it would take
939
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,360
for the paint itself to degrade.
940
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,640
And so they would just paint over it.
941
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,360
And they were saying they would do a touch up in four years,
942
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:28,840
but then after eight years,
943
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,920
they'd be done with it and paint it white.
944
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,800
But Okuda says that Port Authority decided
945
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,960
he gets eight years and then they were gonna wipe it out.
946
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,480
So I don't know, I've seen both.
947
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,720
Well, so he did this in three days.
948
00:34:41,720 --> 00:34:42,560
Yes.
949
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,400
So there's no way, it's gotta be spray paint, right?
950
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:47,700
Yeah, it's spray paint.
951
00:34:47,700 --> 00:34:49,720
I guess I actually have photos of that.
952
00:34:49,720 --> 00:34:52,080
I'm guessing spray paint doesn't last as long.
953
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:52,900
Nice.
954
00:34:52,900 --> 00:34:53,740
Oh, look at him.
955
00:34:53,740 --> 00:34:55,960
Yeah, he's really pushing his brand there.
956
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,760
Yeah, I wonder if he designed his own clothes there.
957
00:34:58,760 --> 00:34:59,880
Oh, absolutely.
958
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:03,800
This skull is actually one of his signature designs
959
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:04,640
that he does.
960
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,200
He's even got the six panel hat.
961
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:07,800
Oh yeah, oh my gosh.
962
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,960
Very hippie, very hippie, definitely smokes.
963
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,160
No, that's really cool.
964
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:14,840
Yeah, he's got this.
965
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:15,680
Oh, he's got his lift.
966
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:16,520
Yeah.
967
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,440
Yeah, so he can get up.
968
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,040
So I like those panels as well.
969
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,040
There's probably a little light inside.
970
00:35:23,140 --> 00:35:25,680
So eight years is the contract, if you will,
971
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:26,520
before it's repainted.
972
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:27,360
Right.
973
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,180
And they're gonna paint it white.
974
00:35:28,180 --> 00:35:29,020
That's already been decided?
975
00:35:29,020 --> 00:35:29,860
Mm-hmm.
976
00:35:29,860 --> 00:35:30,680
Okay.
977
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:31,520
Yeah.
978
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:32,580
Well, so this is done in 2020.
979
00:35:32,580 --> 00:35:34,640
Did they have numbers on visitors since this?
980
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:35,480
Did it work?
981
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,480
Yeah, I'll say that in a second.
982
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:38,320
Okay.
983
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,520
Okuda is hoping that after those eight years,
984
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,720
whoever is the person that decides to recover his artwork
985
00:35:45,720 --> 00:35:46,920
will choose differently.
986
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,960
It's kind of like, it's decided,
987
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,560
but hoping after eight years,
988
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,680
there'll be different feeling around it
989
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,640
once it's been integrated a little bit more.
990
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,400
But he's also a graffiti artist.
991
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,480
That's kind of how he started out, was doing graffiti.
992
00:35:58,480 --> 00:35:59,500
Okay.
993
00:35:59,500 --> 00:36:02,500
And so he says that he's used to his work
994
00:36:02,500 --> 00:36:03,800
having a small lifespan.
995
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,300
He's like, he's used to painting something,
996
00:36:05,300 --> 00:36:07,000
and within days, it's covered back up.
997
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,320
So he's like, I can understand and appreciate
998
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,520
the having my art having a lifespan,
999
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,160
but in my heart, it will always live on.
1000
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,400
Yeah, eight years for some spray paint
1001
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,400
is more than the average, I guess.
1002
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:20,780
It's quite nice, actually.
1003
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,080
You never know, they can decide to keep it.
1004
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:24,920
Yeah.
1005
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,360
He's actually been offered more lighthouses
1006
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,080
to paint in Spain, but doesn't give any details
1007
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,200
about which ones those are.
1008
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,520
He said it includes one that's on an island,
1009
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,160
which I didn't see any prominent island lighthouses
1010
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:42,160
in Spain, except for, it could be the Isla Moro lighthouse,
1011
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,120
which is also in the Bay of Biscay, which is Cantabria.
1012
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,560
And he's a Cantabrian artist,
1013
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,280
so I think it would be more likely for him
1014
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:54,140
to paint another lighthouse where it's culturally,
1015
00:36:54,140 --> 00:36:57,320
would plant some meaning back into its location,
1016
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,400
and not just some rando painting a lighthouse somewhere.
1017
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:05,400
There's not a concept, but a, I guess a program.
1018
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,820
It's asset of cultural interest.
1019
00:37:07,820 --> 00:37:12,820
It's kind of like us making the national protected places.
1020
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,360
Gosh, I can't remember what it's called.
1021
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,320
It's like every lighthouse is under this.
1022
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:20,520
Historic.
1023
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,120
Historic places.
1024
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:22,960
Oh, we talked about this.
1025
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:23,800
I know, every time.
1026
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,120
We talked about East Brother Light.
1027
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,080
National something of historic somethings.
1028
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,820
You guys know where we're talking about.
1029
00:37:32,820 --> 00:37:33,660
It means you can't touch it.
1030
00:37:33,660 --> 00:37:38,500
It's like that in Spain, where they have protected places.
1031
00:37:38,500 --> 00:37:39,340
Historic.
1032
00:37:39,340 --> 00:37:41,940
Yeah, culturally protected.
1033
00:37:41,940 --> 00:37:45,380
And there's only eight lighthouses in Spain
1034
00:37:45,380 --> 00:37:47,540
that are on this protected list,
1035
00:37:47,540 --> 00:37:50,080
which would prevent it from being painted
1036
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,100
the way that he paints lighthouses.
1037
00:37:52,100 --> 00:37:55,380
So any culturally well-known lighthouses
1038
00:37:55,380 --> 00:37:57,100
that would be on this list would not be painted,
1039
00:37:57,100 --> 00:37:57,940
so I think that's probably why
1040
00:37:57,940 --> 00:38:00,660
I had a hard time finding an island lighthouse
1041
00:38:00,660 --> 00:38:02,980
because it wouldn't pop up as easily
1042
00:38:02,980 --> 00:38:04,900
as these lighthouses that are protected,
1043
00:38:04,900 --> 00:38:06,860
that are an asset of cultural interest.
1044
00:38:06,860 --> 00:38:07,860
Okay.
1045
00:38:07,860 --> 00:38:10,700
Anyway, it has a couple layers of varnish on it,
1046
00:38:10,700 --> 00:38:11,860
but he said, like I said,
1047
00:38:11,860 --> 00:38:13,860
there was gonna be like a touch-up in four years,
1048
00:38:13,860 --> 00:38:16,060
and around eight years it'd be decided
1049
00:38:16,060 --> 00:38:16,980
if it'll be white again,
1050
00:38:16,980 --> 00:38:19,260
so you have to visit before 2028
1051
00:38:19,260 --> 00:38:21,860
to definitely see his artwork on this lighthouse.
1052
00:38:21,860 --> 00:38:24,580
It's kind of the fun thing is it has a lifespan.
1053
00:38:24,580 --> 00:38:26,200
So if you're a visitor,
1054
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,100
it makes it more likely for you to come
1055
00:38:28,100 --> 00:38:29,100
and visit here pretty soon.
1056
00:38:29,100 --> 00:38:29,920
I even thought about it.
1057
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,540
I was like, oh, we're gonna be in Spain.
1058
00:38:31,540 --> 00:38:32,380
We should go out there,
1059
00:38:32,380 --> 00:38:34,380
but it would be a whole excursion.
1060
00:38:34,380 --> 00:38:35,220
Pretty far away from where we're going.
1061
00:38:35,220 --> 00:38:37,460
We'd definitely have to fly there, I think.
1062
00:38:37,460 --> 00:38:41,920
In only 11 days, his art brought 28,000 visitors
1063
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:42,760
to this lighthouse.
1064
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,540
So probably within two weeks,
1065
00:38:45,540 --> 00:38:49,780
we saw as many visitors as we saw in the past three years
1066
00:38:49,780 --> 00:38:51,380
of the life of this lighthouse.
1067
00:38:51,380 --> 00:38:53,020
That is crazy.
1068
00:38:53,020 --> 00:38:54,020
I know.
1069
00:38:54,020 --> 00:38:55,420
So it's definitely working,
1070
00:38:55,420 --> 00:38:57,140
but it's also free.
1071
00:38:57,140 --> 00:39:00,420
And so people that are against it say,
1072
00:39:00,420 --> 00:39:03,740
what is the point of bringing people to see this lighthouse
1073
00:39:03,740 --> 00:39:06,540
if they're not actually putting any money
1074
00:39:06,540 --> 00:39:08,780
into the lighthouse or the environment
1075
00:39:08,780 --> 00:39:10,620
or the city or anything like that?
1076
00:39:10,620 --> 00:39:13,260
I think they're assuming that a lot of people are Spanish
1077
00:39:13,260 --> 00:39:14,420
and are coming to see it like,
1078
00:39:14,420 --> 00:39:17,960
oh, we'll just drive up there for a day and then go home.
1079
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,980
But people like us would be staying in Ajo.
1080
00:39:20,980 --> 00:39:22,420
Visitors, yeah.
1081
00:39:22,420 --> 00:39:24,060
So kind of has both ways.
1082
00:39:24,060 --> 00:39:26,580
There's some people who don't want visitors.
1083
00:39:26,580 --> 00:39:28,460
I lived in Colorado for a short period.
1084
00:39:28,460 --> 00:39:32,340
And everyone loves to visit Colorado.
1085
00:39:32,340 --> 00:39:33,780
I still like to visit there.
1086
00:39:33,780 --> 00:39:37,100
But being someone who was a Coloradan,
1087
00:39:37,100 --> 00:39:37,940
it was kind of,
1088
00:39:40,020 --> 00:39:42,340
didn't really love the tourism.
1089
00:39:42,340 --> 00:39:44,460
Because people would bring their, I don't know,
1090
00:39:44,460 --> 00:39:47,020
they come up and treat your place like a playground
1091
00:39:47,020 --> 00:39:47,860
and then they leave.
1092
00:39:47,860 --> 00:39:48,860
That's true.
1093
00:39:48,860 --> 00:39:52,460
Yeah, it's part of half and half of tourism.
1094
00:39:52,460 --> 00:39:55,820
It can be something your community relies on,
1095
00:39:55,820 --> 00:39:58,500
but it would also be pretty annoying.
1096
00:39:58,500 --> 00:40:01,580
You don't wanna cater to tourism if you don't want tourism.
1097
00:40:01,580 --> 00:40:03,380
So that might also be a problem with this
1098
00:40:03,380 --> 00:40:06,500
is that nobody said we needed tourism,
1099
00:40:06,500 --> 00:40:07,740
but all of a sudden they're putting money
1100
00:40:07,740 --> 00:40:08,860
into having people visit.
1101
00:40:08,860 --> 00:40:09,860
And they're like, why would we do that
1102
00:40:09,860 --> 00:40:11,260
when we can just enjoy it ourselves
1103
00:40:11,260 --> 00:40:12,420
the way it is naturally?
1104
00:40:12,420 --> 00:40:14,060
Well, at least there's not like,
1105
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,300
Toby Smith, we talked about Paradise Island in the Bahamas.
1106
00:40:19,300 --> 00:40:20,700
And he was saying,
1107
00:40:20,700 --> 00:40:24,740
his idea of developing that lighthouse into a beach club
1108
00:40:24,740 --> 00:40:28,860
and having locals be able to have local land
1109
00:40:28,860 --> 00:40:31,100
be accessed by them, not just tourists.
1110
00:40:32,300 --> 00:40:36,260
Some other corporations that were nearby didn't share that.
1111
00:40:36,260 --> 00:40:38,820
So it was like, well, we don't really want locals here.
1112
00:40:38,820 --> 00:40:40,340
We're for tourism.
1113
00:40:40,340 --> 00:40:42,780
Locals have a special rate on the days
1114
00:40:42,780 --> 00:40:43,940
that we're not open to tourism.
1115
00:40:43,940 --> 00:40:44,780
It's just weird.
1116
00:40:44,780 --> 00:40:46,780
Yeah, and Toby's not saying like,
1117
00:40:46,780 --> 00:40:50,020
we don't want tourism, so this is for locals only.
1118
00:40:50,020 --> 00:40:53,260
He's just saying they would employ locals only
1119
00:40:53,260 --> 00:40:56,220
so that there's some money going back and forth there
1120
00:40:56,220 --> 00:40:57,780
and then tourists could come and visit
1121
00:40:57,780 --> 00:41:00,620
and it would be a reason to go and see it.
1122
00:41:00,620 --> 00:41:02,220
Benefits for everybody.
1123
00:41:02,220 --> 00:41:04,400
But don't let the controversy scare you away
1124
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:05,540
from this lighthouse.
1125
00:41:05,540 --> 00:41:08,260
It's still, I know I just talked about it a lot,
1126
00:41:08,260 --> 00:41:11,900
but the lighthouse itself deserves to be visited
1127
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:13,660
regardless if it's painted or not.
1128
00:41:13,660 --> 00:41:14,980
I think it would be cool to see it
1129
00:41:14,980 --> 00:41:17,340
while it's painted before 2028.
1130
00:41:17,340 --> 00:41:20,300
That new white paint though, that's gonna look good.
1131
00:41:20,300 --> 00:41:22,780
It's really bright and nice.
1132
00:41:22,780 --> 00:41:24,300
So if it's gotten this many visitors,
1133
00:41:24,300 --> 00:41:27,660
why not, I'm sure they are open to it,
1134
00:41:27,660 --> 00:41:30,300
why not entertain the idea of having him
1135
00:41:30,300 --> 00:41:33,660
or a different artist put a new exhibit on
1136
00:41:33,660 --> 00:41:34,780
for the next eight years?
1137
00:41:34,780 --> 00:41:36,060
Wouldn't that be cool?
1138
00:41:36,060 --> 00:41:37,220
I think that would be awesome,
1139
00:41:37,220 --> 00:41:39,140
but I think it's the fact that this lighthouse
1140
00:41:39,140 --> 00:41:41,220
wasn't built to have paint.
1141
00:41:41,220 --> 00:41:44,140
Like, it's not built to be a gallery of artists.
1142
00:41:44,140 --> 00:41:46,020
It's just to be a lighthouse
1143
00:41:46,020 --> 00:41:48,060
and can be appreciated just as a lighthouse.
1144
00:41:48,060 --> 00:41:50,300
But instead, in their eyes,
1145
00:41:50,300 --> 00:41:52,340
they're turning it into this debacle
1146
00:41:52,340 --> 00:41:53,620
where it's like, oh my gosh,
1147
00:41:53,620 --> 00:41:56,740
do we really have to make it so out there
1148
00:41:56,740 --> 00:41:58,820
and so modern and everything
1149
00:41:58,820 --> 00:42:00,060
for people to come and appreciate it?
1150
00:42:00,060 --> 00:42:02,180
Or can it just be the way that it is?
1151
00:42:02,180 --> 00:42:03,300
I can appreciate that.
1152
00:42:03,300 --> 00:42:06,680
But I wanna see it, I'm not gonna let that deter me.
1153
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,500
I wanna go see it the way that it looks now
1154
00:42:08,500 --> 00:42:13,500
because it's the most colorful, visually exciting lighthouse
1155
00:42:13,980 --> 00:42:14,820
that I've seen.
1156
00:42:14,820 --> 00:42:17,300
Whoa, walk that back.
1157
00:42:17,300 --> 00:42:20,220
Not the most visually exciting I've seen,
1158
00:42:20,220 --> 00:42:22,500
but the most visually unique lighthouse
1159
00:42:22,500 --> 00:42:23,340
that I've seen so far.
1160
00:42:23,340 --> 00:42:25,220
That's gotta be true, yeah.
1161
00:42:25,220 --> 00:42:26,040
That's all I got.
1162
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,880
The hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.,
1163
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,820
so just this short little four-hour window
1164
00:42:31,820 --> 00:42:33,980
on weekends only during low season,
1165
00:42:33,980 --> 00:42:35,820
which is any time other than summer.
1166
00:42:35,820 --> 00:42:38,260
But during the summer, they're open from 11 to two
1167
00:42:38,260 --> 00:42:40,860
and then they have a two-hour break and then four to nine.
1168
00:42:40,860 --> 00:42:44,340
And people that have visited and write blogs
1169
00:42:44,340 --> 00:42:47,180
and reviews and stuff say that the best time to visit
1170
00:42:47,180 --> 00:42:50,260
is sunset because you get to look out over the water
1171
00:42:50,260 --> 00:42:51,740
and see the sunset and it's all.
1172
00:42:51,740 --> 00:42:52,580
The golden hour.
1173
00:42:52,580 --> 00:42:54,900
Yes, the golden hour.
1174
00:42:54,900 --> 00:42:56,460
That's apparently the time.
1175
00:42:56,460 --> 00:42:58,020
It's weird that they're open and closed,
1176
00:42:58,020 --> 00:42:58,960
to be honest with you.
1177
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,460
Yeah, well, you got people probably volunteering
1178
00:43:02,460 --> 00:43:04,620
to keep it open.
1179
00:43:04,620 --> 00:43:06,580
Some facility nearby.
1180
00:43:06,580 --> 00:43:09,880
You gotta have people running, it's like the gates open.
1181
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:11,300
There are gates to get in
1182
00:43:11,300 --> 00:43:12,820
because it's somebody's private property,
1183
00:43:12,820 --> 00:43:15,260
so I can understand that.
1184
00:43:15,260 --> 00:43:16,780
Hope they get paid something.
1185
00:43:16,780 --> 00:43:18,260
Yeah, right, I know.
1186
00:43:18,260 --> 00:43:19,100
Yeah, that's neat.
1187
00:43:19,100 --> 00:43:20,260
It's very pretty.
1188
00:43:20,260 --> 00:43:21,340
I like the black top.
1189
00:43:21,340 --> 00:43:22,580
I know that's pretty common,
1190
00:43:22,580 --> 00:43:25,700
but it's a nice contrast to all the other.
1191
00:43:25,700 --> 00:43:27,820
It's nice that he didn't touch the top, I think.
1192
00:43:27,820 --> 00:43:28,980
I think so too.
1193
00:43:28,980 --> 00:43:30,220
Gorgeous cliffside.
1194
00:43:30,220 --> 00:43:31,060
I know it.
1195
00:43:31,060 --> 00:43:32,620
That's in a really nice location.
1196
00:43:32,620 --> 00:43:35,780
That is the Faro de Ajo Lighthouse
1197
00:43:35,780 --> 00:43:37,100
or the Garlic Lighthouse.
1198
00:43:37,100 --> 00:43:38,300
Garlic.
1199
00:43:38,300 --> 00:43:39,980
I think Faro is lighthouse,
1200
00:43:39,980 --> 00:43:41,860
so it's just the Faro de Ajo.
1201
00:43:41,860 --> 00:43:44,780
And I'm like, Faro de Ajo Lighthouse,
1202
00:43:44,780 --> 00:43:46,220
Garlic Lighthouse Lighthouse.
1203
00:43:46,220 --> 00:43:47,620
It's like saying ATM machine.
1204
00:43:48,940 --> 00:43:49,780
Oh.
1205
00:43:49,780 --> 00:43:51,380
Automatic teller machine, machine.
1206
00:43:51,380 --> 00:43:52,500
I was like, wait, what?
1207
00:43:52,500 --> 00:43:53,780
Is that wait, automatic teller?
1208
00:43:53,780 --> 00:43:55,700
Yeah, like a bank teller anyways.
1209
00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,300
You came up with that example extremely fast.
1210
00:44:00,300 --> 00:44:02,180
People say it sometimes.
1211
00:44:02,180 --> 00:44:03,020
It's a thing.
1212
00:44:03,020 --> 00:44:03,840
It's funny.
1213
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:08,380
Well, I have all of the links I used in the show notes
1214
00:44:08,380 --> 00:44:09,660
so you can kind of read about it yourself.
1215
00:44:09,660 --> 00:44:10,620
There's a lot more detail
1216
00:44:10,620 --> 00:44:12,060
I didn't include in my bullet points.
1217
00:44:12,060 --> 00:44:15,700
And you can look up Sea Glass and Faro de Ajo,
1218
00:44:15,700 --> 00:44:17,300
all that stuff.
1219
00:44:17,300 --> 00:44:18,540
You can take a look at it.
1220
00:44:18,540 --> 00:44:21,260
I got some blog posts and stuff in the references.
1221
00:44:21,260 --> 00:44:24,540
So read up in our show notes.
1222
00:44:24,540 --> 00:44:27,460
Also gonna link where you can see us on Instagram
1223
00:44:27,460 --> 00:44:30,660
and YouTube and LinkedIn and all of that in our link tree.
1224
00:44:30,660 --> 00:44:33,900
So just one link to take you anywhere
1225
00:44:33,900 --> 00:44:36,140
to do with our podcast.
1226
00:44:36,140 --> 00:44:36,980
Good work.
1227
00:44:36,980 --> 00:44:38,260
Thanks for presenting today.
1228
00:44:38,260 --> 00:44:39,500
Yeah, thanks everyone for listening.
1229
00:44:39,500 --> 00:44:41,340
We hope you had a good time
1230
00:44:41,340 --> 00:44:44,020
and you're ready to visit us again.
1231
00:44:44,020 --> 00:44:48,300
He gets worse and worse every time trying to remember it.
1232
00:44:48,300 --> 00:44:51,580
We'll see you next time on the Lighthouse Logo.
1233
00:44:51,580 --> 00:45:11,500
Come in and take a look.
