And neither are the two workers spending the night at the lighthouse. However the fog horn, with its deep and piercing sound, isn’t the most important character of Bradbury’s story. The Shofar is our spiritual horn trying to call us back home, especially at times when we feel that we are surrounded by the darkness of the night and by the many challenges of life. The first time I read the story, I couldn’t help but to associate the use of the fog horn to the sound of the Shofar. As the night came in and the fog began to thicken, the workers added to the lighthouse the use of a horn to guide the possible ships around. In 1951, the American writer Ray Bradbury published a short story called “The Fog Horn.” It told the story of two guys working at a remote lighthouse in Lonesome Bay.
