A View

Have a SeatYou gotta love a view. At least we do – the view may in fact be the entire reason we embarked on this Ocean Delight journey. Sam snapped this picture, and like usual, she has a great eye. Reminds me that we’ve got another great view lined up for this afternoon – this time of Charlie Crocker playing live at the Shag It, today from 3-5pm. There’s no cover, our chicken, cheese and broccoli casserole is on special, and of course, we’ve got our world class view. Maybe we’ll see you there!

Work with a View

View at our Newfoundland resortThis pretty picture was captured by Samantha, our new front desk receptionist. It was the view yesterday morning – sunny and complete with Bridie and Shamrock, our Newfoundland ponies.  Our team is growing, and we’re lucking to have many great people on board. We’re proud to offer a great work environment, just an hour outside St. John’s – and the view, and the walking trails and English gardens to explore on your breaks, are a bonus! We’re still looking for staff for our upcoming busy season – please see here to learn more or apply.

Here’s to Saturday!

View at our Newfoundland estateHere’s to the weekend! We hope that you have an equally beautiful place of solace to toast! We get out here every evening we possibly can – and each time, we still get that ‘aaaah’ feeling. Which is amplified by a complimentary glass of wine, naturally!

Radiant Sunsets

I should probably change the name of this blog from ‘Jerry by the Sea’ to ‘Jerry Watching the Sky’ given the number of posts I dedicate to sunsets. And if you’ll indulge me again, we had one the other night that begged to be photographed. Where ever I am I’m drawn to watch each evening, but here and now the cleanliness of the air and the cooling temperatures are making the sunsets more radiant than anything I have seen before.

When photographer Michael Hanson stayed with us, he told me that ‘real’ photographers don’t take pictures of sunsets or sunrises – they take pictures of their effects. I hope I captured some of that here. Not that I’m a ‘real’ photographer yet, but I’m trying!
