Something not right?

Description

A small park on the side of the road in the centre of the community of Noggin Cove, adjacent to where a small Brook enters the ocean. Three picnic tables on site. When we arrived, the grounds keeper, Cyril, was just finishing mowing the grass. We asked if it was OK to camp overnight and he gave us a resounding “absolutely”. We asked if it was OK to have a campfire and again, he gave his blessing. In fact, later in the evening he returned with a box of “splits” - Newfoundland vernacular for kindling. Even though we were only a few meters off the main road, after 2300 hrs. everything went silent, except for the occasional -distant- barking dog! That evening, the sky was clear and we had a terrific view of the night sky. Spectacular! If you visit, and run into Cyril…please say hello!
