5. I remember reading this article in the NYTimes travel section

a few years ago and they were saying you can stay at some of them...all over the world. That would be so cool.

7. Lol!

FUnny, I'm at work right now and this one guy was just talking about that - saying he would still work.

I just looked at him. I like my job, but I would have WAY too much other stuff to do!

12. Thanks for the links, Tuesday Afternoon.

Looks like several are still operating.

I didn't know that the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse was relocated.
