I’m always happy to get emails from my friend Bud Vincent, but he sends me so many great pics that I unfortunately can’t share them all the blog. But when I read his caption on this one, I had to! According to Bud, ’tis so cold around here these days, even the outhouses are closed for the season!’ This shot was taken in Champneys, about an hour outside of Harcourt … looks like it might be colder there than in the Wonderful World of Whiteway! (And by the way, no, we’re NOT closed for the season – while lots in our industry do shut down in the winter, we know our cottages are still a cozy retreat – complete with snowshoes, warm fires and hot chocolate – and we love giving Newfoundlanders some easy travel options in the winter!).
