Congratulations to Saint Mombo on her 5,000th post to these Collector Forums.
It's very appropriate that she made this post in the longest running game on the Forums -- the International Lighthouse Name a Lighthouse game.
Sue is a major contributor and supporter for these Forums and her input and participation are greatly appreciated!

I had hoped to avoid all the whoop-de-do by sneaking that post in John! It's been great fun and I hope we can continue for many posts to come!

Sue,
Could you give us a listing of the lights you have used in the international lighthouse game?
Thanks for sharing all your special adventures with us. What is next on your list of lighthouse special events? You haven't been to one for a while . . . . .

5000 posts Sue, and we still don't know where the 'Mombo' handle came from? If I did, I forgot but I think you told me it wasn't from dancin'?
Congrats to a good friend,
Bpb
ps I got that book about the Hampton's you suggested and will be taking it to Montauk the end of the month!

Congratulations Sue!! Your posts are always great to read, informative, helpful, and who can forget your humor Since I don't drink beer (GASP !) a small morsel of chocolate has been consumed in your honor. Keep those posts coming Melody

Bob,
She did share where the nickname came from a while back. If I recall, it goes back to when her kids were in high school, and she hung around with the boys cross country team, who annointed her "Mombo". (Guess she has always gone for "fast" guys . . . . .)

Actually Dave it was the girl's cross country coach who gave me that name, but he could have been a fast guy too! The noseless person, I told you about her???!!! Melody, just last night I was dying for a candy bar! (Had already had my beer for the day!)

Ahhhhh - you were teaching your daughter to run away from the boys, the faster the better! I'm a little concerned that you had your "beer for the day" (singular). If you are down to only one per day the brewery may have to lay off the third shift due to decreased production . . . . . . .

I thought "beer for the day" sounded more gramatically correct than "beers for the day" Dave. Would I really want to put those folks' jobs in jeopardy????

Doesn't the plurization of 'beer' follow that of 'deer'?? as in...
"I shot me some deer!" so "I drank me some beer!"

Well 'Fast Sue', you should get one beer for each post! Nah, even that's to many for the 'Queen of Beers'? How about one for each post on this topic from each Congratulator. That's one for each post and two for the sarcastic ones! So put me down for 3 oweses.(2 posts + 1 sarcasm

Nice Job Sue!!!!!
Marblehead, Mass. Lighthouse, you will always have a very special place in our hearts. ....We've made the journey as far south as New Jersey, as far north as Canada. Over 100 lighthouses visited.... and so many more to go.
