Same/similar names, same states - 06/19/04 12:34 AM

OK, I think the Games forum needs a revival. I know we've kind of done this before, but it's a variation on a theme.

Let's see how many groups of similarly named lighthouses we can find. THe catch is that they have to be in the same state or province. One post concerning one group of lights per person per day. Let's see how far we can go...this forum needs some posts!

I'll start with:

NEW YORK

Stony Point (Hudson River)
Stony Point (Lake Ontario)

Let's see what you have! Range lights DO count!

New Presque Isle just down the road from Old
Presque Isle Harbor on Lake Superior

Back to the UP of Meeeeeechegan we go:

Sand Point at Escanaba (on Lake Michigan)

Sand Point near L'Anse (on Lake Superior)

I believe the latter is operated as a B & B. Has anyone stayed there??
