Games
Come in. Pull up a chair.
Them days you sent a youngster up the road to say there was a game on. Now you send the code, and if a chair's still empty when you deal, one of the regulars takes it.

Got a place worth the drive?
Down the road
Well, Sunday after Mass we'd walk it. Start at the gate and go down, and every house along here I'll tell you who's in it.
The Viking Trail (route 430)
The Viking Trail
The road from Deer Lake to the end of the world: Gros Morne to L'Anse aux Meadows.
The Viking Trail, provincial route 430, runs roughly 490 km from Deer Lake up the Great Northern Peninsula to St. Anthony and L'Anse aux Meadows, passing through Gros Morne National Park, the Tablelands, Port au Choix's archaeological sites, and the Strait of Belle Isle coast. Tourism NL promotes it as the island's signature northern road trip, layering 6,000 years of human history onto a single drive.
How to get there
Provincial Route 430: roughly 490 km from Deer Lake up the Great Northern Peninsula — Deer Lake to Rocky Harbour, a full day in Gros Morne, then Port au Choix and the Arches before L'Anse aux Meadows and St. Anthony.
Fact
Where that comes from
On the go
Them days the garden party was the whole summer. Here's what's on the go now, and when.
The kitchen
Well, Sunday the pot was on before Mass and the smell of it met you at the gate. Here's what was in it, and how it's done.
The hall
Them days the hall had a dance Saturday and the kitchen had music the rest of the week. It's still playing. Come in and listen.
The yarns
He said, you know the one about the light on the water. I said, I do. That's a story, mind, and I'll tell you which parts.
Not the house
No, I said, that's not the house. It was down just below there. Go back up the road.
