Elora ON and the Fall

It has been told to me over the last few days that a light has been seen in the middle of the tower. This was from 2 different people and I did ask if they were... mistaken and it was the light at the top but have been told no. Seeing how we have started the fall season and I have been told that Spirits are more alive at this time of year, perhaps it is the ghost of one of the Lighthouse Keepers climbing the stairs and the light from their candle, escapes through an east window, or perhaps one of the unfortunate sailors pulled down by the rough seas is walking about inside. This is the second time I have written this as the first time the text disappeared when I posted it. If you happen to see it, let us know. See more
