    Today’s first story had an interesting link on the history of the Alki Lighthouse. This contained another link about the Valencia, en route to Seattle with the new school superintendent, that missed a turn and wound up on the rocks, below a cliff, on Vancouver Island. Just some 37 survivors out of 173.
