ENJOY YOUR WEEK, LIZ & CHRIS! YOU DESERVE IT!

Day 52 – The rain is back and it looks like it will be around for several days. So glad we got out yesterday even though it was cloudy! This morning it was 42 degrees; that could be the high for today. We’ll be hunkered down in the RV today, but that’s okay. We’ll be doing a big batch of cooking this afternoon – it’s time for some curry.

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE WHO IS AFFECTED BY THE SMOKE FROM THE FIRES!!!

TRAVEL DAY

From: Town of King’s Point RV Park, King’s Point, NL.

To: Notre Dame Provincial Park, Lewisporte, NL.

Day 50 – The low last night was 41 degrees. We saw that there was a little less ice pack in front of the RV than there was when we arrived here last Saturday. But we doubt it will all be gone by this Saturday. We took our time getting ready to leave this morning. We won’t have hook-ups at the Park we’re going to, so we took long showers and washed our hair.

TERNS ON ICE.

Day 49 – 39 degrees this morning and still foggy. It got fairly windy last night and we got a little rain. We’re staying at the campground today. Tomorrow we’ll be driving to a new campground, Notre Dame Provincial Park. We should have a signal there since it’s not too far from a couple of larger cities. That’s the thing, though, we really can’t be sure until we get to each new location whether we’ll have an internet signal.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES.

Day 44 – It rained hard all night last night and was 36 degrees when we got up, still raining. That was the high temperature today – 36 degrees. The temperature never went up, hitting 34 degrees briefly but staying mostly at 35. It continued raining all day and all night. We were afraid we might get snow, and since we’re traveling in the RV tomorrow, that wouldn’t be a good thing. It just rained so we lucked out. The wind picked up during the afternoon. Summer is not here yet; spring has barely arrived.
