Gee I looked at before anybody else post and said to myself "Amelia Island". The tower and the trees. Can I get credit even though I didn't post it??

LOL

No credit for anybody yet, because it's not Amelia Island. Keep trying

Yes, congratulations gebbyk! Now can you tell us the story behind that "handle" or do we have to guess that too?!

This game is interesting George as it has pointed out that there are some very similar lantern rooms out there. Although Amelia Island is the older light perhaps it's lantern room is from a newer period similar to that of St. Simons?

When I looked at your picture of Amelia Island, I began to doubt myself. They are nearly identical except for the length of the lightning rod. That set of construction plans must have floated around that area for some time.

On more post Ed14 and you'll be a WACKO (officially any way - you're probably one already when it comes to Harbour Lights.)

Great game George! I took a picture almost from the same angle a month ago, during the day though, and was able to figure it out by comparing pictures. It's a great lighthouse & museum.
