Blow Me Down
Why Blow Me Down? Stay tuned for short and sweet info. Why? 110% beauty but 0% internet access.
Blow Me Down is a provincial campsite in Newfoundland. It earns it quirky name with gusty winds, gorgeous views of the ocean abd vast terrain.
Here is one of my paintings from that memorable spot! Not for sale. Enjoy…it’s 4×6 inches painted in gouache on my birthday.
Confession
I confess that this place waa not even on my traveling radar a year ago. Then our fab Canadian camping and kayaking pals, Sara and Alain, shared pics and stories with us.
And here we are!
How Are You?
Please do share what’s happening in your world, gentle reader! I hope to see your replies from a rocky outpost in Newfie.
