This post is dedicated to my friend Chris Mills, a former lighthouse keeper living in Ketch Harbour, Nova Scotia. Chris loves all things related to light keeping and lighthouses and has written some great books on the subject.

| Cape Palliser light - reached by 250+ steps. It still sports an 1897 Fresnel lantern. |

| Bulldozers are used to launch and retrieve fishing boats on the loose shingle beach nearby. |

| Rani on the long climb to the light |
 |
| Light detail - note the cast iron frames, lovely copper(?) dome, and Fresnel lens |
 |
| Just down the road is a colony of fur seals. |
 |
| These baby fur seals appeared to be quite unconcerned with us. |
