I have gotten several replies on Lighthousing.net. All the help I ahve gotten, and will get, both here and on LH.N, are helping me lots!
Even if someone else has posted about a certain light, several viewpoints on the same light are nice. It helps to know if someone knows a little tip or trick that someone else didn't!!!
Thanks again!!!!!

Do you have Kenneth Kochel's book, America's Atlantic Coast Lighthouses? I found it to be a great help when I was trying to determine which lighthouses to see on my Maine trip.

Actually, I just picked up one last week. I'd needed one FOREVER, and now have it. It helped me quite a bit with the directions!!!
