Definitely not, buddy. It's just that you collect more interesting stuff than I do. You've got dodads. I've got junk. Really.

Trust me, you have to climb over the junk to get to the DoDads.

Once 45 feet Above The Water -- Bar Point Light D-33 Is Now Missing

Bar Point Light D-33 --struck by tug & barge at 6:15 a.m. Sept. 18 2004. Area residents reported an initial explosive sound followed by what was most likely the shriek of steel as the vessel backed off the light. The structure once rose 45 feet above the water.
Canadian Coast Guard placed a temporary beacon soon after the accident and has been surveying the area for the location of debris.

Although no report has officially been issued, reports indicate the Barge A-397, and her tug M/V Karen Andrie, have been at Toledo Shipyard with barge undergoing repairs to bow damage ever since incdent.

No information has been released to the public at this time & all reports are based on waterfront speculation.

I always wanted to renovate a little old schoolhouse.

By the way...how do you make a link to a photo say "here" or something?

Newer Lighthouse

We just picked up this one. Maintaining lighthouses is one of the more expensive things we do in the Southeast Region. It sure would be nice to have one on the shore; I'd go crazy living out in the ocean itself.

ick, you couldn't get me to pay anything for any of those. I'll stick with glass, stainless steel, and concrete as building materials for now.

Does that include the house too? It'd have spectacular views. I'd pay that for that one you've posted Jinx. We paid more than that for our house and it doesn't even have ocean views...or a big light.

Yeah but look where it is! The light is the only bit that would be above the snow in winter!

Nope. Rather live in a treehouse. Or a yurt.
