Gentle Storm

Gentle Snowstorm in NewfoundlandWhen is a storm not a storm? When lots of snow falls, but it comes in vertical – not horizontal like we so often get here. The winds didn’t pick up, making the perfect night for candles, soft music, a delicious meal enjoyed with The Berry. Such a sweet storm!Gentle snowstorm in rural Newfoundland

Put Another Log on the Fire

Unfortunately I only took my cell phone with me yesterday when The Berry and I hiked the trails of of Whiteway (make that WWW – Whiteway Winter Wonderland). The picture above really captures how stunning the area gets in the winter; the picture below, why I should take my camera with me more often!

Anyway, yes, yesterday was the first snow of the year and it was floating down in big puffy flakes – the kind that you can catch on your tongue. The perfect weather for a romantic walk.

It was a refreshing promise of the winter to come, and gave us inspiration to help us plan our “Stay In and Stay Warm” winter packages. We’re working on making sure enjoying our cottages in the winter is as cozy as possible – please let us know if you have any suggestions!

Really, there is not much nicer than coming in to a warm cottage with pleasant music, a fire going and red wine on a winter’s day.
