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 Walkabout In Englee, Northeast, Newfoundland

Wednesday, July 17th, 2013

Evergreen tied to the wharf at Grevigneaux Harbour.  The crab pots, fish nets, and fish vacuum all sit idle on the docks since all commercial fishing in this area is finished for the time being.

 
We climbed at hill at the east end of Englee Harbour for some good views.  (You can click on the sign to enlarge the writing for a bit of history.)




 
A lonely iceberg across the bay:

 
"What do I shoot next?"

 
One of the smaller churches of the town:


"Do you have your wood in yet?"

 
One of the many "stages" along the flower lined shore of the inner bay:

 
This is the town wood lot.  During the winter these sleds are pulled by snowmobiles and wood is delivered to the homes.

 
A baited bear trap at the wood lot:


Heading up George's Hill, at the west end of town:

Flowers are everywhere:

 
When we were returning to the boat we saw a whale chasing Caplin in the harbor:
