Reminds me...
of the spiral stairs in the old lighthouse east of CSL... out towards (what used to be) shipwreck beach....
Took some fun photos there in the mid 80's.
Great shot! thx.

That looks exactly like the entrance too-----
----the apartment where we stayed in Rome last summer-----I mean EXACTLY. Spooky place, until you got to the actual apartment, and then it was great
and modern. More fun!!!!

why counterclockwise?
im sure this is known by many, but i find it interesting as to why stairs almost always decend counterclockwise....so that the people defending thier
building can use a sword right handed on the way down...while the invaders are at a disadvantage on the way up.

THANKS
thanks for clearing that up, pacificobob.... Good to know! (and I didn't know...)
I thought it was related to why water swirls down the drain (or toilet) one way in the northern hemisphere and the other way in the southern
hemorroidalsphere....
Did I say that??

I always wondered which direction the water would swirl on the equator!! Does it just go "blup, blup, blup" down the middle?

On the equator...
...it doesn't 'swirl' either way - it just backs-up!
According to my clock...anytime is \'BAJA TIME\' & as Jimmy Buffett says,
\"It doesn\'t use numbers or moving hands It always just says now...\"
