Good Wednesday Afternoon!

As usual time is fleeting! and I'm late in publishing the November "Musings"!

The "Musings left my desk to go to our Graphic Artist and knowing Brittany I'll have it to proof in the morning!

It has a "headline" that will make you all happy!

I am afraid if I give any hint you will all guess- what's up! If nothing more each of you will know - I listen to Collectors.

(Is that a good hint?)

Who said, "Patience is a virtue?"

We will stand-by to stand-by, Tony. Don't make us wait too long!

If I was over-optimistic Tony, I'd say REUNION but sadly I don't forsee one ever again.

I agree, Bob S., but there is always a chance. And we will all jump at that chance! I've only attended two but they were truly memorable. The side trips organized by John in Maryland and the Chicago bus ride organized by Dave for Michigan made them particularly outstanding for me; they were just super!!

I think Tony is saying there is a hint in his message. Anybody see it?

A reasonable and prudent person would think whatever we've been wishing for may have been granted. Now the question is, which wish has come true?

My brain is in neutral after a few "Level 1 & tonics". I just can't think of what the answer may be at this time.

cheers Bob

To All,

Well I don't have a clue. And I've had nothing to drink. frown

I think there's been a lot of things wished for by a lot of us. I'm no closer to making even a guess.

Check into the Wish List and see that many lights were sought after. May be, just maybe one of them. Now let me seeeeeeee! laugh

Could it finally be the release of Ponham Rock aka Pomham Rock in East Providence, RI? Maybe Watch Hill down there at the RI/CT Line?

Curious to see how the news will make All of us happy. Maybe many, or several, or at least an few!

Here's some things we've been wishing for:
* more LLOM's
* less LE's
* more LE's
* a certain redo
* no more redo's
* Glows that don't light
* Glows without feet
* another reunion
* a regional event close to home
* another lightship
* another USCG ship
* the return of foreign lighthouses
* another Alaska LE lighthouse
* more lighthouses from ME
* more lighthouses from MA
* more lighthouses from NJ
* more lighthouses from.....just about every state with a coast!

And I'm sure I missed a few more wishes.

Hopefully we'll know today and MOST of us will be happy. cool

Maybe the hint is in the words. "Reasonable" and "Prudent"?

Don't know any lighthouses named "Reasonable"....

Hmmm. That leaves "Prudent" "Prudence"? Isn't there one in Rhode Island close to that? Bird Cage lantern room.

I'm not spilling any beans, because I'm in the dark on this one too.

Just spoke with Tony. He understood that the Musings was to go out after hours yesterday and will see if he can find out where the hang up might be. The announcement is one that people should really be excited about . . .

I dont' know about HL making a replica of the White House but the Washington Monument is as close to a "look-a-alike" lighthouse as any national mounment in Washington DC is going to get.
