I was wandering through my archives and found these. I had forgotten all about them, we had a wonderful trip and traveling around the New England states.

If we didn't have all these danged rocks, we wouldn't need the lighthouses! But at least you got really nice shots of them! Good work!

Yes the Portsmouth LH allows that, you cannot get to the other LH.

Not to be a jerk, as per some of the comments / conversations I've seen here of late on UHH,
title should be singular...Portsmouth Lighthouse is in New Castle, New Hampshire.
And...nice Nubble Light with the gull !!

Oops, you are right. I had them listed in a directory called "Maine Lighthouses" and did not look at my images of the signs to tell me where they were. Please accept my profound apology to the New Hampshire residents. We stayed in a wonderful little town called Francestown in NH and it was a perfect central location to go to all of the sights in New England. One of the neat places in Francestown was the "Francestown Village Store" supposedly the 2nd oldest continuously running store in the US. It reminded me of my grandparents general store in a little town called Wolfdale in PA. The floors were wood the shelves were close together and there was everything you could think of in the way of merchandise, from pre-prepared foods, beers, wines to all of the things you would need to run a small farm. What a step back into my childhood it was wonderful.

NO NO NO. au contraire !! I was sticking up for Maine, where I went to school and lived for 35 years !!!
Fun Fact:
Maine has 65 lighthouses spread over 5,000 miles of coastline
New Hampshire has 2 on their 17 mile coast
