  • Every year, two volunteer caretakers stay on Seguin Island for six months, helping to maintain the 64 acres of land and look after the property's lighthouse.

      I didn't know this was a thing until my husband told me about it yesterday. Now I'm searching. This is very interesting.

      Not the best editing. The video made it sound like they might only be there for the summer, but then why would these people sell their business for a summer job?

      Michael Craig Why oh why do folks come online and and ask questions out of other people that they themselves can easily find the answer to since they have the entire world’s largest warehouse, treasure trove of information right at their own damn fingertips!!!!!!!!!!!! The SHEER AMOUNT OF LAZINESS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I see out of so many people like you online is just absolutely mind-boggling!!!!!!! I am 60 years old and I have never asked one question in my entire life out of anybody on the Internet and I never will because I find the answers myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      @@garlandremingtoniii1338 Because if we start searching everything by ourselves and start solving everything by ourselves human communication and interaction will be lost. Yes laziness does play a role but anyone can search anything they want online, you're correct, but what will that do to our lives?

    • @TT-rz5td
      @TT-rz5td Před 4 lety

      I don't think it was intended as rude but I also I do not think that it was that silly a question. Maybe their house was not wired for electricity. And it would be even less silly if they had already told the tourists that that they didn't have any Plumbing. If I would have to choose between the two, I would choose having plumbing over electricity

    Not sure why that would be considered a dream job. Guess it would be sorta cool at first but after a few months, the novelty would wear off. I’d be like “I have to get off this damn island”

    Out of all the islands you could have chose, Seguin is probably the worst. Very badly haunted.

      Tyler, maybe that nice couple are ghosts of the caretaker couple that lived there 150 years ago. 😱😱😱
