My husband is quite a fancier of lighthouses. We have our own photographs of some of them - from Longt Point to Jamaica and Honduras - all the way to Australia.

My hubby built a lighthouse on our island home. It houses a real search light and the water pump for the cottage as well as a couple of electrical outlets. He did such a great job. I am so proud of him!

Belize lighthouse!

(You're all going to be sorry I figured it out - if indeed I still remember how!)

We took a horse and buggy ride from just outside the dock (through the "boss lady" of 4 or 5 of these units, that we'd bargained with and kibbitzed with for quite a while) -and passed this lighthouse in Belize City.

This one was in Roatan:
Did you see it?

Nope. I think we passed by that as I was hanging on for dear life in the van. But now I can say I've seen it!

I saw it all and then some! Love the unique architecture that can be seen in various lighthouses. It says a lot about the culture.

Wow - I didn't know that. That's neat.
However, now I guess I'm going to have to examine any photos closely before I post them - for any bits of naughtiness that might be lurking in the background!
