  • New beach

    This photo was taken at a new beach, not the old faithful Stephenville Crossing beach you’re used to seeing. I’m not sure where this one is located exactly – It’s between Kippens and Port au Port, if anyone can provide… more ›

  • Bright green

    Despite having a sore throat and what feels like an ear infection, I went to the beach today.  It was a warm 22’c and the breeze was just strong enough that I didn’t feel too warm. I forgot to mention… more ›
