These are the last few shots from our Bell Island road trip.
I popped out around getting some pictures while the rest of the crew stayed in the car to contemplate lunch and wait for the return ferry crossing.

The Fotogeeks btw have a few good shots from that trip as well. Those guys tend to shoot more scenic stuff and jump out of the car to go running in that direction, while I often head toward any people that I see in the same area, so that site can give an interesting alternate perspective on the same trip.

For those not in Newfoundland, we’re experiencing a bit of weather.

I’ve learned that nothing motivates the masses like fear. Or flurries. So feeling like a true sheep, I stood today in line at the grocery store to buy what could be classified as “in case of power outage” supplies.

Ya know; candles, matches, fruit, whipped cream, vodka. Maybe I should change that to “third date” supplies?

Anyway, the storm has officially hit, and hit quite hard. I’m constantly checking the window, looking in disbelief at how much snow has fallen. I’m hoping it’s a hallucination induced by the delicious combination of low light, gluten and 80 proof alcohol.

So, I’m sitting here amid it all in total appreciation of the beautiful weather we had during the visit to Bell Island this past Saturday.
