The Outport Tour

Yesterday, being one of those rare spring days in Newfoundland where it wasn't snowing, sleeting or raining, we decided to drive around the penninsula and look at some sights.

Here's me at the road sign to the village of Dildo




The Village of Dildo


An abandoned house in Grate's Cove


A really abandoned house in Grate's Cove












The Famous village of Brigus

I've never been to Newfoundland but these shots remind me of why I want to visit.

Thanks

Strange... I was thinking just the opposite. I could spend the rest of my life happily without setting foot in such a cold and desolate place.

This coming from someone that lives in a hot, desolate place.

When I see the environmentalists up in arms about things like the seal hunt, I think about places like this and dozens more like it out around the island (and some are even more isolated than this - at least this one had a road), where people have hung on for hundreds of years, and eeked out a living. it's where their family came from and for them it's home. When you live in a place like this, and have no desire to live anywhere else, it tends to put things in perspective.
