Mini-‘Lego’ Model Of The ‘Portland Head Light’ At ‘Fort Williams’ — One Of Our Favorite Places.

The actual lighthouse from our visit on Sunday.


It is NOT ‘Lego‘ & it is mini-blocks (though in reality they are more like micro-blocks & they come with a tweezer to help you pick them up).

Not a very good likeness — I have to say; but it is, nonetheless, rather cute.

Why they just couldn’t make a smooth, rounded tower defeats me. But, it is the thought that counts — I guess.

They were selling the kits, at $13 (plus Maine tax), at the Gift Store.

During ALL the visits we have made to Fort Williams in the last 3 years this was — due to COVID — the first time the Gift Shop was open. Teischan went in, looked and told me about the kits. She, as ever, was impeccable. She did not ask for one (though she also has a stash of cash). I bought TWO! One for her, one for me.

She built hers today. Took her two days. That is hers. I appropriated hers & gave her my, unopened, kit. She is going to build that too. She likes Lego.

Well, I wanted to share this with you. Enjoy. SMILE.
