[Leica] A lighthouse in a totally different county

[puff11 at comcast.net (Norm Aubin)]

 Douglas,

Thanks for sharing - lighthouses have become a particular interest of mine
this last year - so it's good to see others from your neck of the woods!

Is that lighthouse visible form Tantallon Castle - I ask because I have a
few images from there and there is a lighthouse just barely visible in the
shots, but it's name escapes me and I haven't done a detailed map search to
find out.  I'm thinking Tantallon is rather far north from there, and a bit
around the bend into the Forth of Firth, but maybe my memory fails as I age
. . . 

As to whether Lancashire is more or less beautiful than Yorkshire - well  -
I'll not get into a War of the Roses again - the first was bad enough. I'd
live in either place in a heart beat, but then I'd probably start driving
back up to Scotland again - Loch Lomond has my heart, as does Stirling, and
points north and west.  Frankly, the only place I don't want to be over
there is stuck in traffic on the north bound M-5 in Birmingham (again)!


If'n you find more, please post them - this one was nice.

Best of light,
Norm
