Sunset Sunday: Beautiful Everywhere
Wherever you happen to be, if you can see the sunset, you can take a few minutes to pause and be grateful. I try to do that everyday, whether I’m in Newfoundland, Mexico, or who knows where. This trip has been very rejuvenating for us, after a long and busy year. Everyone needs to getaway here and there. That’s why I’m happy to say that our Whiteway cottages are open all winter (with some great specials), and The Doctor’s House will be opening up soon. And regardless of where this Sunday finds you, please take a minute to look up, see the heavens, and be grateful. God bless.
Budding Saturday: Have a Seat
Sometimes, having a seat is easier said than done. We hear that the weather has been relatively mild since we’ve been away. This picture was actually taken by Newfoundland photographer Bud Vincent a few years ago, but it’s still pretty representative of Newfoundland patios in winter! We hope you have a much cozier place to curl up on this fine Saturday!
Havin’ a Time!
Yes sir – we are having a fabulous time in Mexico, enjoying the lovely weather, the local culture, the plus-sized margaritas. Sayulita is a great place, and we’re happy to be here.
But you know we had to check out the local Irish pub – especially since it’s called Murphy’s Irish Pub! And wouldn’t you know it – Newfoundland musicians Dave Whitty and Matt Cooke showed up! What a treat to have a real taste of home, so far from home. Newfoundlanders – we’re everywhere. And we always know how to have a time!

Valentine’s Gift Certificates at The Doctor’s House
Valentine’s is little more than a week away, and romance is in the air. That’s why The Berry has come up with some special Valentine’s packages, good at The Doctor’s House. You can use them this Spring – when we’re expecting some goat and sheep babies, and the blossoming of what seemed like countless extra bulbs we planted last Fall. It’s going to be an amazing time, and a great way to reconnect with your loved one. And a great way to knock their socks off this Valentine’s! Find all the details here.
Clifford’s Feathered Friends
A very happy belated birthday to our good friend, Clifford George. A gentle soul, we can almost hear Mary Poppins singing (‘….feed the birds … toppins a bag ….’) as we write this. Thanks to Clifford and Shirley for sharing these sweet photos, and reminding us to stop and feed the birdies from time to time!
A Bright Shining Sun for Susan and Scott
What a beautiful day for a beautiful couple – here’s Susan and Scott, who got married last summer. The day before their wedding – rain. The day after their wedding – rain. The day of their wedding – blue skies ahead!
Susan recently shared these lovely photos, taken by Farell Cahill Photography. We’ll be sharing more on Facebook and Pinterest, so be sure to follow us there. And thanks again to Susan and Scott, for sharing their day with us, and congratulations once more!
Sunset Sunday: More Sayulita
Ahhh, there are worse ways to spend a Sunday than this. But, there’s a giveaway that we’re missing home – last night we went to Murphy’s Irish Pub! It’s become a favourite spot of ours. We like to go with friends and talk about Newfoundland. We’ve met a few Newfoundlanders, and lots of Canadians. It’s always nice to be reminded of home!
Budding Saturday: Just Hanging Out
Thanks to Newfoundland photographer extraordinaire Bud Vincent for yet another great photo. Saturdays on the blog we like to showcase all things Newfoundland, and Bud’s a great resource for sure. So what are you up to today? We’re a little like this bird – just hanging out!
