NEWFOUNDLAND – AN ATTEMPT AT SIGHTSEEING.
Day 153 – It rained as usual last night, but this morning the rain had stopped & it was just very cloudy & humid, 48 degrees when we got up. The weather forecast said no rain. We thought we’d venture outside to do some exploring.
NEWFOUNDLAND – WAITING OUT THE WEATHER AT THE RV.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DUANE! HOPE TO SEE YOU IN NOVEMBER!
Day 152 – We actually slept until 9 a.m. this morning. Yawn! It started raining about 10 p.m. last night & continued all night. It was 41 degrees, windy, and raining this morning but the rain stopped until after lunch when it started up again. We’re having some trouble with the electrical connection here. It appears the campground wiring is not able to provide enough power to run a microwave or a hot water heater or our electric heat. We have to run the generator when we need to use these items or use the propane-powered version. Not a huge deal, but we may end up moving to a different site. We’ll see how it goes.
Windy & rainy today, we just stuck around the RV, caught up on the blog, made two loaves of garlic cheese bread, and did a few things that had gotten behind. The lazy cats slept all day; but what can we say after sleeping so late this morning. The high today was 53 degrees. The rain continues.
NEWFOUNDLAND – GROS MORNE NATIONAL PARK TO BLACK DUCK SIDING.
Day 151 – It was 41 degrees & cloudy at 7:30 a.m. this morning. We’d made the decision to leave Gros Morne earlier than planned to explore areas farther south while waiting for peak colors to arrive at the National Park. On Sunday we had scouted several campgrounds that would be staying open in the Park so that we’d know where to stay when we came back north in a week or two. We were surprised that the campground gave us a full refund for the nights we’d paid for already but were not staying. We departed the campground after dumping tanks at 11:30 a.m., heading south on Route 430. It was 53 degrees & with some sun.
