Port Rexton was a second stop on our Newfoundland Trip. We stayed at a lovely Inn overlooking a cove.
The front lawn of the Inn had a labyrinth and large moose sculpture.
Across the road on the hill was a driftwood sculpture – dog or coyote?
This photo was taken in the evening as the sun was setting and the colors broke through the clouds and illuminated the island for a few minutes.
This was to be the ultimate boat trip – finally get to see a Greenland Ice Berg. But no. There were no icebergs this year. The few that broke off from the Greenland glaciers were few and drifted out to sea instead of hugging the coastline like so many have done for centuries. My dream of seeing and photographing an iceberg was put on hold, yet again. Here are the sites from from a boat trip in the harbor. We didn’t even get to see a whale. Sigh.
The Lewis Chessman were found in 1831 on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. The Chess pieces are of Walrus ivory and sperm whale tooth and found in an underground chamber. Scandinavian in origin, late 12th and early 13th century.

Our first day in Scotland we rode a tour bus while waiting to check into our hotel. We were very tired.

I love taking pictures of windows. Windows allow light into dark places. Windows frames the story of the world just outside our “window”. The Abbey windows grants a glimpse into the past story and prompts us to see the present story around us. These windows remind us of the work of God and the church and encourages us to be open the movement and whispers of the Holy Spirit. I love taking pictures of windows.
