ReplyDeleteI may have visited Portland Head Lighthouse but it's been so long I can't remember for certain. I love lighthouses.
ReplyDeleteI do love a good lighthouse.
ReplyDeleteThese stamps are great.
ReplyDeleteGood idea for a theme. The main lighthouse in Buffalo (where I was last week) was beautiful across the water.
