If your interested in postcards or games, we have internal Forums for exchanging postcards and playing lighthouse games. We also have an internal Forum for selling, buying and trading Harbour Lights products and we have a dealer Forum for our Dealers that are members to advertise their special and events.

It is truly odd that a lighthouse enthusiast such as myself would live in one of the only 3 states east of the Mississippi that does not have a lighthouse. Go figure. :p

Welcome Tread22 from another lighthouse enthusiast who lives in one of the states west of the Mississippi without a lighthouse!
Nice photos! Enjoy the Forums.

Bill and Judy Thanks Bill and Judy. I have a question for anyone that chooses to answer: What is this forum's policy regarding bumping older topics (more than a month since the last post)? Should one create another thread with the same topic or post in the older thread?

Hopefully I will have a few photos uploaded to Photobucket that show lighthouses in your state (from the trip that I just took). That reminds me.....I was thinking of mentioning my Photobucket account on the forums. What is the policy on this? Is it allowed or considered a violation of forum rules? Also, I have another question: How does one add an avatar? I tried to do so but it didn't seem to take.

Feel free to add a post to an older thread to 'bump' it back into view.
You get to have an Avatar after you've posted 50 times - making you an "official" Wacko.
You can provide links to the PhotoBucket account. We frown a bit on commercialism here so if you are posting a list primarily to 'sell' 16x20" prints, that's a bit of a 'no-no' but if you are sharing your photos of lighthouses, not a problem at all.

Looks like your are already a pro at posting pics !!! The first three were taken in the summer of 2008, the fourth pic was taken in the spring of 2008 and the last 4 were taken in the fall of 2003. Before I reveal the identities of the lighthouses, would anyone like to take a guess at them?

Hello Tread22,
Glad to have you aboard! I'm just one state south of you here in Alabama, good to have a neighbor onbord.
I love your photos.... please post more! We all enjoy lighthouse pictures. And don't worry about posting pictures of a lighthouse that someone has already posted as we love to see the different angles from which different people shoot from.
As for your Avatar I see that you already have 6 posts and you've only been a member for 1 day. So you are well on your way to getting that Avatar. All you need to do is have 50 posts and you can add your avatar.

Well, I am actually a closer neighbor than you might expect......even though I have lived in Tennessee for most of my life, I was born in Birmingham. Thanks for the compliment concerning my pics. I will have to make sure and fulfill that request. Speaking of avatars.....is that Sand Island in your avatar?

I think you have Umpqua instead of Cape Meares and Crescent City instead of Old Point Loma.

So far, 2 and 6 remain unanswered.
