I love Summer.  I love the sun. I love the warmth. And I love the exploring! This post is about historic Brigus . This (mostly) quiet little town is fantastic to explore.  In the main section of town you have narrow roads, a mix of older and newer homes, historic sites, a walking trail to the lighthouse (which I have yet to do), and places to shop and eat.

It's really quite on this side as it is away from the tourist sites.

We don't luck into finding places like this.  We found this gem while Geocaching!...

In the warmer months, you can expect to see: Travel (local and an international trip) DIY's that involve being outside/Summer projects Challenges Summer/Fall lifestyle topics that interest me Local events Food (light, Summery, quick, local food, etc).  Pack Ice, Belleview Beach, NL (2017) In the colder months, you can expect to see: Craft fairs Holiday/upcoming events DIY's that involve being inside Food (warm, hearty home-made meals, work lunch prep, etc.) Whatever I can post about that doesn't involve me going outside and experiencing the cold, Winter weather (lol).  In addition to all this, I do also have a few guest post features that are in the works of finalization that will be posted throughout this blog.
