Sandyville, Seal Cove and Hermitage Park August 6

We headed out after lunch to a beautiful park with a campground just a few kilometers from the house.

Joanne and Susan on the boardwalk between the lake and the ocean.
The weird flower we saw in bud a few days ago looks alright when it opens.

It is beautiful country.

A brackish lake on one side.

and the ocean on the other.

Joanne calls this a sea pea.

A small waterfall and stream in the park.

It runs down to the lake behind the rocks.
A short drive back and we are at Sandyville which is near Hermitage and together they make one village.

A flower, petals tattered from the wind.
Joanne is looking at an old gravestone which no longer has any markings.
Looking back at the town of Sandyville.
Fishing houses along the water.
Crab pots look pretty new.

Driving a little farther down the road we came to Seal Cove.

A home right on the sea.

Some homes have one star on them. I am not sure if it means anything.
Ocean view.

This is a boggy hill. You can see the water channels between the clumps.

They have built a nice walking path along the shore.

Looking back at Seal Cove town.

Whale bones laying by the path.
Fisheries building by the harbour.

Coming back to Hermitage from the highway. The town is all around this cove.
Boat for sale.

Opposite side (east) of the cove from Joanne's house.

One boat of many.

I caught a flock of gulls just flying up.

Looking back from the dock at the other side (west) of town. Joanne's house is on this side but back farther.

Back home, cooking dinner and eating at our usual 8 PM. Tomorrow is our last day, and we leave for Gander on Monday the 8th to start our flights home.
