We have a challenge for all you lighthouse enthusiasts.
We have a sheet of 24 lighthouse stamps. And we are interested in how many of you can name them all!

So have a look here: Lighthouse Challenge

A couple of tips ... 'cause we are nice people wink :
These lights are not all from the USA ... for example D1 is German. And some of the porportions of the stamp-pictures are badly distorted.


The first person who can name them ALL wins!

What can you win?
Well ... let me think ... [img]http://www.lighthouse-duo.net/images/Animations/smilies/thinking1.bmp[/img]
... how about one week bed and board for two at the Lighthouse Duo's in the English West Country, including visits to at least three lighthouses ?!? towel

Do we have to admit that we can't quite name them all ourselves ... yet? whistling

I've got:

A1: Fire Island, NY
A2: Portland Bill, UK?
A3: Gay Head, MA
B1: Baker Island, MA - that was tough!
B2: Drum Point, MD?
B3: Not sure, but it looks African or South American.
C1: Sambro Head, Nova Scotia?
C2: Admiralty Head, WA
C3: Montauk Point, NY
D1: Leuchtturm Westerheversand, Germany?
D2: Something German?
D3: Cape Elizabeth, ME
E1: Yaquina Head, OR?
E2: Coquille Inlet, OR
E3: New Dungeness, WA?
F1: Grand Haven, MI?
F2: Portsmouth Harbor, NH?
F3: Pemaquid Point, ME
G1: Old Point Comfort, VA
G2: Trinidad Head, CA (Replica I think)
G3: Barnegat, NJ
H1: Not sure if this one is actually real...can't tell with the painting.
H2: Old Point Loma? (Guessing you'd know that one)
H3: This looks like another version of Portsmouth Harbor, but in painting form.

Wow, these international lights are tough...
