We enjoy sharing our lifestyle with our family, friends, and others. So COME ON OUT and "let's get on with it". You only have an opportunity to live once. For those of you who do not choose to get away, feel free to travel vicariously via this blog.

This is primarily a blog of photographs, of our travels. Our blogging time is limited by our activities, so we figure a photograph is worth a thousand words. You may click on the photos to enlarge them.

There is only one Post per page. You can access earlier posts by clicking on the link below and to the right, or by going to the "Archive".

The "Relevant Links" will take you to sites showing our current location, the weather conditions that we are experiencing, some of our favorite ports of call, and information related to our boat. When using the SPOT link, to see where we are, click on "satellite" tab to get a photo of the area (takes a while to load).

If you must have more then you may also follow the links to our "Earlier Blogs".

Enjoy, Philip & Sharon

A Beluga Whale Comes To Visit

Sunday, June 30th, 2013

Happy Canada Day!! (This post was written on July 1st)  As of today we have been underway for one month.  And on that note I will say that the blog is finally up to date (until tomorrow).  Enjoy the photos as you travel with us from Maine, up the Nova Scotia coast, and on to the west coast of Newfoundland, Quebec, and now Labrador.  There is only one post per page.  Click the "older posts" link on the bottom right of each page in order to get to them.  You may also click on any photo to enlarge it.  Enjoy.

You would not know it from the photo but it is blowing 35 knots outside the harbor.  However, we started to get some surge so we laced up Evergreen with all sorts of stretchy lines to absorb the movement yet keep her in place without striking the wharf.  Note the small bergs being blown by behind the boat.  Thankfully the wind is not supposed to reverse.


 
The fog only rose rarely enough to see the village of L'Anse Au Clair.


Another first --- We had a Beluga Whale come to visit us in the harbor today.  It seemed to be very interested in the under side of our boat and kept swimming under it.
