Larry,

Sounds like one of my trips -- so many miles, so little time! Glad you are safely home. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, what a great trip! You hit many of my favorite places (and lighthouses!). If you ever go back, try to stay longer in Camden. It's a wonderful town and a great base camp for exploring the Maine Coast.

We're know for our quick trips covering many miles - but this was amazing. How did you find time to sleep?

Sleep? Are you supposed to sleep on lighthousing trips, too?

Drive eat see lights drive see lights eat, sleep? Drive what else is there to do.
Now we can sleep to get ready for Seattle trip in july .

Eat???

Wait til you get to Seattle - probably no eating or sleeping allowed. But you'll love all the lights in the area.

Kathy

I only have a week to see all, but one good thing Im flying out so I'll have more time to see the sights. I have Art's trip copyed so I'll study that to get ideas to help me

Larry,

Just reading about your quick trip makes me want to head for Maine again. The Nubble is Mary Jane's and my favorite lighthouse. I enjoyed reading about your "fast" trip, you certainly covered a lot of ground in a short time.

We are planning to go to Maine this coming June. The New England Lighthouse Lovers (a newly formed club including many HL collectors) is having an outing in Portland. We are schrduled to take a boat ride out to see the lights from the oceans point of view. Bill will also be in the area for a signing which we hope to attend.

I envy you, Larry, for your upcoming trip to Seattle. I had the good fortune to travel there on company business back in 1992 but was unable to do any lighthousing. I look forward to your report of the trip. Have a safe one.

Ron
