            It took me two days to fly back from Newfoundland (thank you Air Canada) so I decided to put my 24 layover in Montreal to good use and paint one of the many lovely views I saw in Newfoundland. I noticed that at many of the beaches, people had brought all  the things we expect to see on any beach in the south: towels, snacks, and suntan lotion. However, no one was in the water and people often had fleece jackets over their bathing suits. It takes a great deal of optimism to enjoy a day at the beach in Newfoundland with the cold water and wind gusts or maybe you need simply, an appreciation for sparkling blue water and gorgeous views.

            Happy Weekend!
