The weather we are having is not unprecedented, except maybe for the balmy winds and the number of days into the 20's this time of year.
It was up to 22 yesterday, up to 14 at moment but with the winds off the land it feels warmer.

Some members of the International Grenfell Association  visited town this week, they are on a familiarization tour of the coast. You can hear an interview with the chair here.

The members were invited to an organ recital [a nice gesture seeing they supplied the money] at the Moravian Church yesterday afternoon. The church Chore did a few numbers as well as some prayers and reciprocal words from the chair of IGA.
Thought I'd add this little video seeing as the Rugby world cup in NZ starts this week. 



Maybe the Inuit could take a page out of their playbook.

Uperty date on the Duchess aka the Dutch aka the Dutch crawler aka the Dutch Runner.

She arrived Makkovik 1110. Made it to the dock at 1220 due to a bit of NW wind. (41KMS at 1200) She made 4 attempts before finally secured.
