This is a "Contest"......

If you could select 12 lighthouses to be featured on a 2001 Calendar (one for each month, of course)....which ones would you select?
I have a list typed out, sitting right here next to my 'puter, and to the person who selects the most that correspond to my list, I'll send that person a customed-engraved "Wacko" coffee cup. The winner will receive the cup once he or she has attained "Wacko" status. The cut-off date for this contest is two weeks from today...August 26th.
There are no strings attached EXCEPT that you must still be in "Newby" status.

In the event of a "tie" there will have to be a "tie-breaker" 'cause I've only engraved ONE glass cup.....LOL!

I'll be on vacation through the 4th of September and will announce the winner at that time. I made a mistake when I announced the deadline of Aug. 26th....it should have been the 25th because I won't be here tomarrow. But since the 26th is the date, I don't feel that it would be fair to change it now. 'Sorry about the mix-up. Thanks to those of you who have taken the time to list the LH's. By the way...the "order" by which you listed them doesn't play any role in the outcome. Thanks.....Brent

P.S. I'm heading to Michigan to attend a family reunion AND do some serious "Lighthousing" while I'm there.

Thanks to all who entered this little contest! It appears that the winner is SAM5 with 3 correct entries. This is the list that I had:
Old Point Comfort, VA

Tawas Pt., MI
Saugerties, NY
