You know, its hard enough waiting and now you go and do this geesh. Nice pixs. P.S. BTW I really like what you did with your club logos. Very nice idea.

Thanks Tom. The June trip will be here before you know it. I'm looking forward to it too! Glad you like the string of logos. I had to have help with that.

Thanks for the pictures, Judy. We are all getting very excited in anticipation. I agree that your logos look pretty cool. BTW, I can't believe I've passed you in number of posts - you were one of the ones rooting for me when I was trying to make Super Wacko!

Glad you guys like the photos! Wait 'til you see these lights up close and personal! I'm truly looking forward to this event, and meeting a lot of you for the first time. It will also be a joy to see you experience these lights if it's your first visit. I can't believe I've passed you in number of posts Grace, I'm just not racing anymore. I wanted to reach Super Wacko status quickly, but once there, I simply just made a personal commitment to stay active. That's pretty easy to do, because the Collectors Forums cover a wide range of topics and...well, I'm a talkative type person, having dealt with the public in a business way most of my adult life. Now, if you were to look over on Lighthousing.net, I presently have 3589 posts. That's because I'm a 'forum moderator' and have been involved with that site as 'staff' since it's birth, fall of '02.

Nice Pictures, I especially like the reflection of Old Cape Henry.

I guess I am a pretty talkative type, too - in writing. I didn't post for years and now I can't stop!!

Terrific shot, Judy. Gosh, the waiting is killing us all, isn't it? Dave, anymore info? It would be fun to see a list of all the participants - just talking out loud. Dave has too much to do already!

Thanks Grace Planning spring and early summer lighthousing adventures helps to make the winter shorter. The occasional spring like day in the middle of winter that also becomes an unexpected lighthousing adventure, is a true gift. That's what last Thursday was like. I also stopped at Cape Henry that day. The photos I took on that stop turned out fuzzy, but the time spent was great.
