Started with all the sets. Once I had those, I added those I hoped to visit nearby and then moved on to those I have visited in the U.S. Have been to and photographed 449 lighthouses; my collection totals 321 LEs and it's growing annually.

We vacationed in Bermuda a number of years ago. Stan took the camera and climbed Gibbs Hill. He took a picture of me waving from the ground and a number of pictures of what he could see from the top of the light, but no picture of the lighthouse! I wasn't into lighthouses like I am now at that time. Already told him we have to return to Bermuda 'cause I've ordered Gibbs Hill! Can't take the RV on that trip, but that's what planes and ships are
for. . . .
