Here it is Thursday again and it is marching along to Saturday! Yay! But today I get to show you another Three or More of something. Thank you to Tam at The Gypsy Corner for hosting this fun day for us. Come join us with something you have three or more of around your house.
I am again showing you something my husband collects. This time it is lighthouses. This set of three are east coast light houses. We have not been to any of these yet though. 
This one we call Coffee Pot because it looks kind of like a coffee pot. I don't know if lots of other people call it coffee pot or not. But it's official name is Orient Point, NY. It is on Long Island.
This next one is called Bug Light, NY also on Long Isand. Both of these were given to my hubby by our former pastor. He knew hubby liked lighthouses and brought them back when he visited Long Island. They were brought back from two different trips there. Also both of these lighthouses are from Scaasis Originals, Inc.
This one is from Danbury Mint and is called Boston Light. Also known probably as Boston Harbor since that is what Scaasis Originals, Inc calls it in their catalog.I don't remember if we bought this one or if my mother-in-law bought it.
Here I have them displayed on a book about Lighthouses. Of course.
Here I have them displayed on a book about Lighthouses. Of course. We also have other lighthouses, but I thought I would save them for a future Three or More post. We personally have visited one light house in Florida, one in Oregon and several in California. We would enjoy visiting others if we get the chance to some day.
Thanks for visiting my Three or More Thursday.
Happy Thursday!!

So nice to see the collections within the family!
Tell him we think his items are great!
Yay, ME...I knew my second guess was right...woo hoo! I did register to win, but it's all the way in CA. and we're here in GA., so I don't think it's REALLY going to happen. Such a gorgeous house, though!
Love your hubby's collection of lighthouses! Very interesting...thanks for sharing!
Oh, I see now what you were hinting about, Linnea -- lighthouses!!! And aren't these neat! I have a couple of birdhouse lighthouses, but they are more on the primitive side and not so detalied as these. This is s fun colletion. I love the book on lighthouses, too. There's just something about a lighthouse! You need the St. Augustine lightouse... it's been restored. I have the hatch door from the lighttender's boat from the 1800's. Maybe I should do a post on that. :-)

I posted before I said... it came off the lighttender's boat that he used to get to the harbor lights. Someone used it as a garden gate, and I have it in its primitive rough stage. We used to use it as a bathroom door till we put the house on the market. Then I had another door built to look like it that wasn't quite as primitive. :-)

I love your hubby's collection of lighthouses Nea. I've always wanted to visit one but we don't have a whole lot of them around these parts. ;o)
So many nice lighthouses. We too have one, lol!
Normally I haven't got any problems with my plants, in fact I have rather "green fingers", but sometimes they don't work out that well in the shop and you don't notise it until you've had the plant for a while.
I hope you have a nice day. Here it's snowing - again!
Love Elzie
I really enjoyed this post because I love lighthouses too. What a great collection your husband has. Where abouts in Florida is the lighthouse you visited there? Maybe we can see it when we go in April.
Thanks for sharing.

I have been to a couple of light houses. One in Mn and one in FL by St.Augustine and we walked up all 200+ steps to the top. What a view:)
Happy Thursday to you.
Warmly,
Deb
Linnea! I love these and how you and hubbs go around visiting the light houses. I'm sure they are quite a sight to behold.
How's everything? I took a wee break from blogging last week because my puter was having issues, but all is well for now.
Hugs and I hope you're having a fantastic day!
I like the lighthouse collection. I have been to visit a few but have never been in one. :)
take care,
Dawn
What a terrific collection, and so thoughtful of your pastor to give those to your husband.
Have a nice evening!
Linnea,
what a GREAT collection of lighthouses. I only have two one is part of my Christmas village and the other is a tealight holder. But yours are stunning. Happy Three Or More Thursday,
Tam
If your ever in the Northeast you must make a trip to see Old Barney....that would be the Barnegat Lighthouse on Long Beach Island in New Jersey....a long walk up to the top but what a view!!
What a terrific collection! I love lighthouses too and a friend of mine has about 400 in her collection. ;-)
Yes, I'm really from Murphys. Well, Angels Camp originally, but Murphy's up until I moved to Oz.
It's 110.5 degrees here today (record breaking temps) and I sure wish I were "home" where I belong!
Hi 'Nea!! I love how you have them displayed on the book about lighthouses!! Very clever!!
Thanks so much for helping spread the word by putting my button in your sidebar!! You such a good bud'!!
Sweet Blessings,
Becky
