woody point trip




our monthly craft collective gathering was in woody point yesterday. (woody point is in spectacular gros morne park about a 2 hour drive from corner brook.) molly and joan and susan all live in woody point so it was only fitting that we hold our 1st anniversary meeting outside of the bay of islands. we made a day of it - leaving at 10:00 in 2 cars. we packed a lunch and had a "tailgate picnic" in the cold. we met at joan's shop "hunky dory" (it will open for the season in a couple of weeks). after the meeting we visited molly's studio/shop "molly made". molly is mostly a rug hooker. barb and rilla and i took an extra drive to the tablelands along the trout river road and took a short walk down to the brook. a wonderful "pre-tourist" time of year.

heheheh I have EXACTLY the same Basmati Rice bag, I keep my clothespegs in it! Nothing like a tailgate party in the cold!
I've only visited Gros Morne once, stayed at Woody Point, walked along the beach, fantastic scenery. Went into the lighthouse. Ahhh lovely. The smell of the sea.

Looks like you had a nice weekend!

I hope you guys are getting better weather in the Bay of Islands than here on the Avalon!

Love your work by the way... I have been reading for a few weeks now -- thought it was appropriate to say hello :)
