Tidewater 2006 Wrapup - 06/26/06 02:09 AM
It's Sunday evening and the last of the planned events for the WACKO gathering and the Portsmouth Regional are history.
My report is that it has been a great weekend, some weather interference, but not too bad to keep lighthouse enthusiasts from seeing what they set out to see.
Saturday evening, the regional dinner went great, Bill and Nancy were there, of course, signing lots of pieces. Carolyn McBee won the gold Admiralty Head - much to everyone's delight.
Tony Constantino did a great job outlining goals for Harbour Lights, promising fewer limited editions each year, smaller edition sizes and prices to stay in the right range.
We previewed a new "Official Collectors Guide to Harbour Lights" book coming this Fall. It's a guide to the 700+ lighthouses, lightships, lenses and lifesaving stations made by Harbour Lights since 1991. Features all new product photography by Paul Brady.
Expect it to be available this Fall.
Dave's arrangements for Friday evening, Saturday and today went great.
Got to see old friends and meet some new ones.
We'll let everyone join in and tell about their best experiences here. Paul's ready to post more pictures upon his return to Indiana.
We got to climb Old and New Cape Henry and Old Point Comfort today in perfect weather.
The Sunday tour for Bus 2 ended at the ATON school with a chance to view their great collection of Fresnels.
