GOOD-BYE GROS MORNE.
TRAVEL DAY
From: Gros Morne/Norris Point KOA, Norris Point, NL.
To: Kinsmen Prince Edward RV Park & Campground, Corner Brook, NL.
Day 151 – The hurricane/tropical storm was not a big deal here, not like what was predicted. This seems to happen often, but it’s okay; we’re glad it wasn’t worse here. Other places were hit hard. Hope everyone is okay!
LAST DAY AT GROS MORNE.
Day 150 – The low temperature was 54 degrees last night. The wind picked up today and it rained. We’ve been in Newfoundland for 4 months as of today, and this part of the trip is beginning to wind down. In less than 2 weeks we’ll be getting on the ferry that will take us from Newfoundland to Nova Scotia.

Day 149 – The low last night was 63 degrees and we got a lot of rain with wind gusts. This morning it was very cloudy and humid. Hurricane/Tropical Storm Lee is on track to cause some damage in downeast Maine, parts of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia before heading up the Strait of Belle Isle to make less of an impact on western Newfoundland. At this point, we are more concerned about our favorite area of Maine tomorrow. Stay safe everyone!

Day 148 – The wind backlash from Tropical Storm Lee is beginning to show up here. Cloudy and windy, it was 63 degrees this morning when we got up. The wind isn’t bad yet, but it will be increasing during the next several days.
NOT MUCH GOING ON.
Day 147 – Warming up again, it was 57 degrees this morning when we got up, and the high today was 69 degrees. It was cloudy for about half the day and later in the afternoon, the sun came out. It was another lazy day; we got things accomplished but it was at a very slow pace. The only time we went out was just to get a propane refill and go to the post office in Rocky Harbour, minor errands. Yawn.

Day 146 – The Loons were calling to each other this morning from out on the Pond. This morning it was 55 degrees when we got up. It was windy and cloudy, but at least it’s not raining. We just hung out at the RV until after lunch. Maybe the sun will come out?
MORE TIME AT THE CAMPSITE.
Day 145 – It was 57 degrees this morning when we got up, cloudy with light rain. Today’s high temperature was 64 degrees. Tomorrow is still looking like better weather, so we’re staying at the campground again today.

Day 144 – It was very foggy when we got up this morning, 62 degrees. It remained cloudy/foggy all day with the high temperature dropping to 60. We won’t have good weather again until Tuesday according to the weather forecast. It’s fine, the cats love to have us here with them. We did another couple of loads of laundry; that made the girls happy, too. We did a lot of catching up around the RV and in general were very lazy.
A DAY INSIDE – STORMY WEATHER.
Day 143 – The weather kept us indoors today as expected. It rained hard most of the day and it was windy, too. We did lots of cooking plus plenty of chopping for large salads for lunches. We made a Curry with Scallops over Thai Rice Noodles. Caught up with the blog.

Day 142 – It rained a little last night and that was all it took to get rid of the humidity. It was a gorgeous day today with a high of 79 degrees and a nice breeze. With the windows open again, we were happy, and so were the cats.
