The Half Moon Shoal Lighthouse in Texas. It was also known as Shoal Point Lighthouse. Lighthouse keeper Charlie Bowers was killed at the lighthouse when a British freighter, tossed about by a hurricane, smashed into the lighthouse in 1900. Half Moon Shoal Lighthouse is not to be confused with the Half Moon Reef Lighthouse.
