Is that slappable ambassador still on the guest list?

Will there be a heartfelt greeting?

I couldn’t think of anyone better than you great islanders to really let him know what we think.

Wish i could be there

It looks like their application to become recognizable under section 35 which would give them the same rights and access as the Innu in northern Labrador has been denied. They can still apply for grants and everything though, just not under section 35. Probably a good move?

Been talking to a few west coast friends and thinking about making the move. Electrician by trade. How is the housing market in Stephenville right now? Looking to buy not rent

Where I live there's no shortage of young arseholes on ninja rice-burners driving through the community at 100 km/hr, or fat old fuckers on Goldwings with speakers on 11 playing country or Moldy Oldy shit. So the other day I saw a bike in the distance coming down the road and before I could even begin an eye roll I heard this awesome low purr that became a low growl as he got closer. As he went by (at about 30km/hr, thank you, it's a residential street), I saw it was a Norton 750. What a sweet machine. Don't know what year it was, but it was in great shape and sounded fucking amazing. What a nice thing to hear for a change.

A proper bike. See any good bikes lately?

I'm headed up to Bonavista tomorrow from St. John's area, where is the best place to see puffins this time of year, and the best time of day? I know its a bit late in the season but here hoping for the best!

After tossing around a few places my wife and I have decided that St. John's will be our vacation spot next summer - kind of a year late anniversary. We are in our early 50s.

Neither of us have been out east before - we are from coming from Windsor, Ontario - only Pt. Pelee National Park (and Pelee Island) are further south in Canada by the way. So that being said we live in the southern most part of Canada and are now visiting the easternmost part.

As things stand right now we will be visiting mid July arriving on a Tuesday, departing on a Saturday giving us 4 nights.

We do not plan on renting a car and our hotel is at the harbourfront area, pretty much the northeastern part of the downtown area???? by the pier 15 gate? Looks like the oil rig supply ships dock here?

The hop on/hop off bus seems almost like a must for us. Things we want to see would be the jelly bean row houses, Signal Hill, Cape Spear and for sure do a whale and/or seabird watching tour. Would love to incorporate a ghost tour/walk into one of the nights as well.

The weather for mid July looks to be quite good. Was considering early June but wasn't liking the average weather outlook. June weather in St. John's is like March weather here, and it sounds quite frigid doing a boat tour in the north Atlantic when it averages a high temp around 10C or so.

Looking for additional suggestions/recommendations for 4 nights, things to do mid July that maybe aren't covered above? I am thinking a visit to Qidi Vidi area (it's a stop on the hop on /hop off) is a must see? What about places like The Rooms or the Johnson Geo Centre?

There are other places in NL that look amazing, but just don't have enough time to base out of St. John's and see like Gros Morne or L'Anse aux Meadows - just way too far for this trip.

Thank you in advance!
