Nice one Jack Seems all LINES lead to the Lighthouse.

Seems this style building is the MOST ABUNDANT by far.

Excellent leading lines, from the boardwalk, to the fence, to the line of trees - all pointing the way to a beautiful cloud-surrounded lighthouse. Couldn't be better, Jack! (Thanks so much for the info on the Idora Carousel - some fond memories of "riding the ponies" there...am going to do some research on exactly where it ended up at - and who knows? Maybe a chance someday to relive some of those fond memories again! :)) #9835334
