A beautiful day here in Washington, though rather chilly. Spent the day figuring out most of the systems for the trailer & checking to be sure that I got what was ordered. There's a fair amount to learn & remember as most everything runs on 2 different kinds of power or has 2 different water sources. This is handy as everything runs with or without hookups, which will allow me to pull up anywhere & camp. My brain is pretty fried, but it looks like I got what I wanted & most everything works - still have to figure out a couple of things tomorrow. Thank goodness for YouTube videos!

      Well, the inside is only half finished, as I want to have parts of it completed in a unique way that will work better for me - one person traveling for long periods rather than the more usual couple going for shorter spans. But will try to get some pics at some point. -- Lorraine

    I love your camper and look forward to seeing it in person.
    Are you still working with the manufacturer in person? If yes, I would suggest recording or videoing their comments.

Gros Morne: Trout River area

Image
Exploring this little town, I first walked up a headland to the lighthouse; the old lighthouse was charming, but, like many, it's been replaced by a functional red & white modern little tower.                                    Then, I walked up the headland on the other end of town. A late lunch of pickled herring with onions & sour cream along with a bowl of Newfoundland pea soup (split pea soup pureed with lots of carrots & potatoes) topped off my visit. Adirondack chairs are quite popular here, & many folks have their own version.                                  After returning from my hike yesterday, I was wiped out. The walk was only 4K & not too steep, so I couldn't figure it out. Then, in the evening, I developed a throat tickle that I just couldn't shake - kept me awake for hours. It hit me this morning that 4 hours in a pub on Wednesday evening probably gave me a cold or Covid - not too bad, just annoying.

family reunion

Had about 3 dozen folks from Manny's family together here today. We're a loud & crazy group. Most of us came from parts of the East Coast, but 3 of the Texans came, as well as one from Australia. We're so blessed to have each other.

Pinware & Point Amour

Image
My first 5 nights in Labrador are at Pinware River Provincial Park. My campsite is just behind the tree line in the first pic, so the sound of the waves has been lulling me to sleep. This little guy has been a regular visitor to my campsite. The whalebone is on display at the entrance station.  Point Amour Lighthouse is more than 150 years old, is the tallest lighthouse in Atlantic Canada, & has quite a lot of history associated with it. When the HMS Raleigh, a British warship, wrecked here in 1922, all the locals pitched in to help rescue the 700 crew & keep them until other ships could take back to England. When a local lady who'd been especially helpful was asked by the crown what they could do for her, she asked for, & was granted, ownership of the cove next to the lighthouse; the current population of 8 are her descendants.
