By closing the first 50 posts and starting this next thread I thought it should start with the same message from the Lightkeeper... The link to the first thread: http://216.46.163.97/forums/Forum1/HTML/000461.html With the year 2000 just around the corner, I thought it would be interesting for the members of the Forums to pick the Top Ten Favorite Harbour Lights of the 1990's. To keep this simple and from becoming too confusing, I would ask that each member only pick (TEN)--(DIFFERENT) lighthouses, in no particular order. Please, only one posting for each member. The lighthouse receiving the most votes will be the #1 Favorite, second most votes will be the #2 Favorite,etc. To give everyone,including new members to the Forums ample time to cast their votes, voting will end on December 1st at 12:00 Midnight eastern time, 9:00 PM Pacific and the winning lighthouses will be posted on December 4th.Please indicate if your pick is an LE or GLOW, where both were produced. By closing the first thread on this subject it eliminates the possibility of you editing your 10 choices, I suppose if you feel real strongly about a change in your top ten you could e-mail it to the Lightkeeper... You may edit your choices up to the 1st of December This size of the thread could get huge with another month and a half of responding to it... Paul L Brady
Onward to The Land of the Midnight Sun!

My Top Ten LE's, in no particular order:
1.Cape Elizabeth 2.Gay Head 3.Port Sanilac 4.Scituate 5.Sea Girt 6.Seven Foot Knoll 7.Stonington 8.Tarrytown 9.Thomas Point 10.East Quoddy Head*
*Saw it, got it! Definitely lived up to expectations.
Throw in the OE's and it gets harder. Portland Head is magnificent, as are the Signature Series OE's, and the Alcatraz OE transcends the LE.
Then again, with HL's constant growth and enrichment, maybe the ongoing answer is "the last 10 issued".

This took some thought and was made a little easier by the fact that I am a latecomer to HL and haven't seen some of the earliest pieces in person.

This is one of the toughest questions I've been asked in a long time. It's kinda' like asking someone with several kids who is your favorite child.
Since I almost rigorously follow Tim's plan of acquiring those most likely to increase in price first (I'm almost there!), I don't have many of the newest releases, although I do have some on layaway. Anyway, here are my top ten in no particular order:
Nauset Southeast Block Island Sanibel Port Sanilac Middle Bay Baltimore Rose Island Pt. Fermin Sea Girt New Point Loma

I've procrastinated long enough. Since I'm hauling my computer in for more memory tomorrow, I might be out of touch for a few days. Soooo......
Portland Head Point Arena Thomas Point Point Judith White River Seven Foot Knoll Tillamook Hudson-Athens Rose Island White Shoal
One will get bumped if they ever make Fort Gratiot. Even though it would be a plain jane, it would jump right on my list.
