When the weather looks unsettled, stick around to see what happens. It was a windy morning with the rain and a little hail coming in hard. The clouds kept opening and closing allowing moments of amazing light overlooking this double sea stack on the Port au Port Peninsula of Newfoundland. I was cold and wet but glad I stuck around for this shot!

Y'all...im on a hunt...my spare cell phone that I use for posting and emails for the shop has unfortunately gone where all un-cased cell phone go...they go to the " how did I end up in hell? It's too hot here, can I speak to your manager?" Hell complaint line...

Any who, I'm looking for a samsung/iPhone in good condition - sis card not required, but a full undamaged screen and a working camera are deal breakers...not looking to spend too much, and I don't really wanna buy a brand new one.

Also, if anyone has any actual phones they're looking to part with or would like to sell, I would love to do a telephone section at the shop...I can use them strictly as display or I can sell them for you

If you have anything, please comment on this post or DM the shop...

Examples in comments below...extra points if above has the holy grail of telephones...

We are officially closed for the season....

But don't fret!! I'll be here, listening to contraband Springsteen (he'd rock a sou 'wester though!) Cleaning, pricing, organizing and ordering, getting ready for the upcoming Tourism season.

If you have a Newfoundland themed emergency during this time, drop me a note here and I'll try to help you out...

If you are waiting for info on a particular item, or pricing on some of our items, I haven't forgotten you and I'll still call as soon as I get the answers you need...

SEE YOU IN A FEW WEEKS!!

Our heritage lives in the stories we pass down, the communities we protect, and the culture we build together.

This , we celebrate Newfoundland and Labrador, and reflect on the people, traditions, and places that shape who we are.

From our small towns to our cities, our province is rich with culture and provincial pride. Let’s work together for a better, brighter future for all of us!
