I am a native of the Oregon Coast and played around the Coquille River light as a child. I have a vague memory of a portion of the keepers house before it completely disappeared.

My husband was a native of Holland, MI and also frequented the beach by "Big Red" as a child. His first collectors piece was Big Red, a gift from me on a special occasion. The total collection numbers well over 200 pieces and has been a delightful part of our lives for many years.

I see some familiar names here from the San Diego Reunion. Was anybody else here on the San Diego Bay dinner cruise? Our table mate was the purchaser of Harbour Lights from Bill & Nancy.
