Welcome to the forums! From your post I would have to agree that you ARE ADDICTED. I'm not sure, but I would think that you have some kind of record going here. 3 Months and 100 lighthouses. WOW! Bert

Welcome to the Forums, Wow, I agree with MtnHkr, 100 HL's in 3 months has to be some kind of record. I hope you jump into the forums as much as you did the HL's. Are these all LE's or are there some GLOWS or Little Lights?
Looking forward to hearing from you so post often.

Welcome. Isn't it nice to be among friends who also believe it's OK to be WACKO about Harbour Lights?

Welcome from another Floridian. You'll love it hear especially this Winter. It's nice to see snow in pictures, but, that's all. Take this from someone that was raised in the snow belt of Pennsylvania on Lake Erie. I missed the snow for a while but got over it. The other most important thing is their are NO WINTER CLOTHES TO BUY FOR FLORIDA and this will help you pay for your 2nd hundred lighthouses. Rich

Welcome to the forums jornfl! I would have to agree that the purchase of 100 in 3 months must be some kind of record! You must have made some store owner very happy!

Welcome Jo, You're hooked, it's obvious! Have you put your lights on display?? I hope so .... it's the only way to enjoy them. Look forward to your posts on the forums and remember after accumulating 50 posts you get elevated to the envied status of WACKO. Dan

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I plan on visiting the Forum often! Yes, I am displaying all my HL's..feel as if I have wall-to-wall curios! For those of you who asked, I've counted 88 LE's, 5 Event Pieces, 5 Special ED's. 4 Collector Series, & 27 GLOW. !! More fun than playing the stock market!!!

Welcome aboard. It's nice to have another collector in Florida. We lived in South Daytona during the early 70s while my husband, flacoastie, was stationed at the Coast Guard Base in New Smyrna Beach. We love it here in the Sunshine State and hope you will learn to love it. Amy
