If you climb the 260 steps to the top of the Absecon Lighthouse in Atlantic City, you'll be rewarded not only a spectacular view of the city, the Atlantic Ocean and Absecon Inlet. You also might get a chance to meet a true beacon of inspiration: Buddy Grover.
Grover is the 95-year-old volunteer lighthouse keeper who spends his days teaching visitors about the history of the lighthouse.
On today's episode of "Brian's Positively New Jersey,” Brian Donohue climbs to the top and talks with Grover about his passion for his volunteer gig, the view from 117 feet up, and the 95 years that he has lived.
