September 16th: West Coast Lighthouses and Remembering the Battle of the Plains of Abraham
First, a look at lighthouse layoffs. It's a contentious issue these days on the west coast. The Coast Guard recently announced plans to automate at least four lighthouses. The west coast's staffed lighthouses are unique. Most jurisdictions in North America don't have any manned stations left. After that story, we'll head from the coast to the plains.
