Bringing a glow to the night

Who says outside lights are just for Christmas time? Drivers on Maple Street in Wenatchee will now see lights year-round.

Greg Johnson, a plumber with Day & Night Plumbing in Wenatchee, has always loved a nautical theme. He’s been particularly fascinated by lighthouses.

Luckily for him, the prior owner of his home — R D Campbell — left behind something special in the backyard: a light fixture made in Germany of copper and bronze that was just perfect to go atop a lighthouse.

Greg just needed to build the base, but finding the time and parts was a process that took him nearly 25 years.
