Pony Play

Ponies at The Doctor's HouseNo doubt one of our favourite parts of The Doctor’s House – and our guests’ favourite parts, too – is our sweet bevy of ponies, Newfoundland or otherwise. And this weekend was especially fun for that reason.  We had some special guests who joined us, and got in some fantastic pony play.

Cassie’s family used to own Ginger, and you can tell the love and bonding is still there. She also sold us a saddle, and this weekend, showed Laurelyn how to saddle Ginger up and ride her.

I’ve learned that all horses have their own personality and rider requirements.  Monty was a bit testy but they got a few rides from him, as well. All in all, a fun time with fun people and fun creatures!

Now That’s a View

View in NewfoundlandYes, I have a now well documented love of sunsets here on this gorgeous island of ours. But trust me – I don’t need the extra fireworks to make the view worth it. Here’s our beautiful view at The Doctor’s House, on a fine, fall afternoon. It’s all I need to see to fall in love with the place all over again. Here’s hoping that you enjoy equally delightful sights on this Sunday.

All That Is Nice

Friends in NewfoundlandHere’s our friend, Edna, who recently stopped by for a visit. She was here on a lovely, sunny afternoon, which meant a walk along our 100 acres and meeting the ponies was in order. There’s a beauty to this place that makes you smile, and when a friend is there to enjoy it with you, that happiness is ten-fold. So thanks to Edna for joining us, and to all the friends who have been stopping by lately!

More Gorgeous Shots of Peter and Andrea

couple getting married in NewfoundlandAnother day, another set of gorgeous The Doctor’s House wedding photos to share. This past summer, Peter and Andrea got married at a small, intimate and still stunningly beautiful ceremony here in Green’s Harbour. These high school sweethearts had been together awhile before deciding to get married, and we’re honoured they chose us to exchange their vows. Their wonderful day was captured perfectly by Jennifer Jones Photography – you can see all the photos here. This is a particularly good read for any brides curious about what smaller weddings at The Doctor’s House look like.

And here’s what Jennifer had to say about her day shooting with us: “It was also my first time at the venue, The Doctors House, and i have to say how impressed i was with the grounds, staff etc. The meal was also amazing, a very creative take on traditional newfoundland fare… very impressed!”

Thanks again to Jennifer for sharing some of her gorgeous photos with us – see more of her work here.

Moon Set

moon riseIt’s always a delight when I rise early enough to see the moon set. It’s a bit easier now that the mornings are getting later. The real kicker is a beautiful sunset in the evening, and a contemplative moon set in the morning. That’s pretty easy here in the Wonderful World of Whiteway, and just about all the awe-inspiring nature one could possible hope to enjoy in a 24 hour period.
