I am here in my heart’s delight (near Heart’s Delight) in WWW – the Wonderful World of Whiteway. After almost 62 years chasing my dreams, I have settled here in rural Newfoundland – what we Newfoundlanders call ‘around the bay.’ I have changed career paths many times, and I’ve had a magnificent journey. I have made lots of mistakes, but have got a few things right, too. I’m confidant these new ocean-front cottages with my partner, Laurelyn, will be one of the ‘rights.’
Now that I have a new home overlooking the sea, and a little (but not a lot!) more time to reflect, I’m inclined to sit with my coffee and write. I want to share what this new beautiful life in Trinity Bay is teaching me.
So I thought I could start a blog. Yes, a blog! One based on my many years of education, employment, fatherhood, and now, most importantly, as a Happy Inn Keeper promoting all that Newfoundland has to offer – I always knew this island was unique, and now I want to share that passion.
So, please stay tuned as I nurture this new career and these new cottages and explore the Wonderful World of Whiteway.
Don’t you just love where life takes you? Good for you for changing it up. Looking forward to reading about your adventures. I’ve already checked out the website for the cottages and may be heading your way to surprise my hubby some weekend. I’d love to do a winter get away – chilly ocean air – aaaahhh!
Thanks, Keli-Ann – you know we’d love to have you.
Nice website. Very well done.

All the fresh ocean air has confused you ‘by!

It’s a big sea, lol!
Hello,
Thank you for liking and following my blog arnnarn.com. It has been a wonderful experience researching, writing and photographing the book (due out this fall), and now blogging about it. From the moment I stepped off the plane in 2004, it was like I had come home. Subsequebnt trips have only reinforced that feeling.
I have enjoyed your blog and am now a follower. It’s like letters from home. Hope to get up there soon.
Thanks,
Bruce
Thank you for your kind words! If your blog is any indication, Arnnarn will be an awesome book. I’ll be looking forward to reading it this fall (love the title, too!)
Not sure if you are still in Ramea, but I was there a few years ago and really enjoyed myself. There are so many great spots around this island that get overlooked, and kudos to you for highlighting them. Best wishes and good luck finishing up your book.
No, no… thank you for your kind words! While I wish I were still on Ramea or Newfoundland for that matter, I’ve returned home.
I hope to get back to Newfoundland when the book is published. Newfoundland felt like home the moment I stepped off the plane the first time and I miss it terribly.
