The last couple of days have been exciting with the Caplin rolling into Holyrood Beach.  It brought all types of fishermen, kids, seagulls, squid and whales.  The caplin are expected to be there for another few days so if you haven’t taken a drive out yet it is worth your while and while you are there if you want the best fries you have ever tasted visit the yellow Garfield’s chip truck.  Yummy!

As many know we bought a house last August and we are involved in major renovations.  Part of this is landscaping.  I have been cutting back the weeds, wild roses and thistles since April and slowly I am winning.  However it is taking the good out of me and I keep saying that we need to rent a goat.  Every time I mow I say I am nearly dead and that maybe even a cow would do the job.  Well I didn’t think Tony was really listening until I went out to the truck to once again get the lawn mower and found I had a choice in equipment.  Mower vs: horse?

Just kidding this is Trigger the neighbourhood horse who got out of his pen.  You should have seen my expression when I walked out of the house to come face to face with him.  As my sister said “where are you living?”

Well we semi moved into our new home over Christmas and we are finding we are getting a lot done with the plastering and painting in the evenings.  I adore my house and all the work that is going into it and in the mornings when I wake I have to say I feel very lucky that I get to wake up to this veiw everyday.

Well it has been requested many times to post anything, so here it goes.  My new house is coming right along and I hope to be in it for Christmas.  On Sunday we got a little taste of the winter weather and what everything will look like for us this Christmas.  We drove back to Mt. Pearl on Sunday before it got too bad and went out again on Monday morning.  I was so pleased to see how the drive reminded me of a Dolly Partonish Colorado Christmas movie type…  It inspired me to blast the Christmas music in my car as I saw the trees heavy with new fallen snow and the sun coming up over the mountains.  Here are a couple of pics.
