Spring Top #1: Flow Tank

My first entry in Made by Rae's Spring Top Sewalong

The fabric: two t-shirts that were outgrown and donated by my 'little' brother, and a super cute piece of cotton from the double V!

And the shirt!

What do you think? Have you entered the 1st May Giveaway yet?

What are you up to today?

Through my Lens: Reggie vs. Gunner

Last night Reggie had a lot of energy and decided it would be a good idea to wrestle with Gunner. Reggie never had a brother, can you tell? I think they both enjoyed it immensely, and I was entertained:)

Were there any wrestling matches in your house last night?

Through my Lens (Exploring Shorelines)

There are so many beautiful shorelines, it was hard to choose; but here are a few to tickle your fancy ;)

Mackerel Boats in Bonne Bay

Through my Lens (Salvage)

A beautiful small town that was suggested to my by a woman I worked with at Gros Morne N.P. It is on a small peninsula north of Terra Nova National Park, past the community of Eastport.

How do you think they get everything out there? Boat?

Not the first I saw, but the most beautiful!

Playing Catch-Up

On a beautiful sunny day, nothing seems better than to soak up the rays while crafting with my boy.

Through my/a Lens (Long Range Mountains)

This is a hike I have not yet completed; although I aspire to see it one day. These photos were graciously donated by my friend Tommy (except the first one, it's mine :), who had the wonderful opportunity to hike the Long Range Traverse in Gros Morne National Park.

the journey begins on a boat

and then a long hike uphill

followed by a very familiar scene (Hi Tommy!)

It is a 3-5 day hike, depending on physical ability, weather and orienteering skills. And it can be longer if fog decides to roll in and out-stay its welcome. I hope one day Reggie and I will be able to do it, but I have a feeling it is a while down the road. Thanks for the photos Tommy!

Through my Lens (Cape St. Mary's)

This is a beautiful spot where many seabirds stop on their way to or from breeding or wintering locations; located on the south-west tip of the Avalon Peninsula. I was amazed at the number of birds that I saw as well as how vast the ocean seemed from where I stood on the cliffs.

Through my Lens (Flowers)

The flowers in Newfoundland are a thing of beauty, if you can find them! (some are very small)
