[/caption]The Register-Star has an unbylined story about a day-long cruise on the Hudson River Friday, July 15 of four of the existing lighthouses still operating along the river. The “Tour d’ Four” Cruise visits the Hudson-Athens Lighthouse, Saugerties Lighthouse, Rondout Light, and Esopus Meadows Lighthouse. Each of these lighthouses has its own special history and is part of a rich Hudson River heritage. Once there were 13, but six have been demolished and are gone forever. The “Spirit of Hudson” departs from Hudson Riverfront Park at 7:30 a.m. arriving at the final stop, Esopus Meadows, by 5 p.m. Passengers will return to Hudson by bus transportation from the Kingston Maritime Museum and back in Hudson by 8 p.m. Read the full story in the Register-Star.
