Second Non-Camping Day, Furby's Cove NL

Today was a day for visiting with Arnie , Rita, Nicole, and Jenna. So nice to catch up.
Pleasant weather (about 20 C.) Feels great, especially when we hear about the heat still happening at home in Ontario!
Rita and I went out picking raspberries again today. You would not believe, the bushes are wild and everywhere! And in between there are blueberries and partridge berries, both ripe within the next few weeks. I really enjoy just wandering out the door and picking. Rita has plans to make jelly and she'll freeze some for us to take on our way home! Yummm! The  only issue today has been the black flies who seem to resent us being in their berry bushes. I have more than my share of fly bites so I suppose there is always a price ... lol!
Aside from wandering down to the beach and enjoying the incredible view, Rita made us a fabulous lunch of scallops and fries today. I have had scallops before, but never like these ... fabulous!!
Meanwhile Karl was helping Arnie check out his Quad.  Somehow didn't expect that Karl would be excited about driving something like that, but just before I lunch I saw his face when he "took off" out of the driveway, "excited" doesn't quite cut it!
And after supper, a hilarious game of marbles that was totally dominated by Rita.
Well another day in the books, as I write this we're watching the sun go down over the bay. Ah ... this is the life!!!
