Lighthouse roll call! What’s the last light or lighthouse you’ve hiked to? This is my latest-The Gasters Bay Light in Harbour Main. We hiked the Goat Shore then onto the light.Not the usual kinds of birds I usually see when out hiking coastal trails-but certainly colourful and fun to watch soaring on thermals.As we headed out to hike the Goat Shore trail in Harbour Main, an elderly gent seeing us embark said, “I see you’re headed out on a dodge.” Having not heard that term used like that before, I consulted the Dictionary of NL English: dodge v To stroll casually and slowly along, to saunter. Indeed, with such beauty surrounding us, we did just that. Here’s to the art and slow pace of a dodge.Where to next? Which hike is calling out to you? Me, I’m headed to the coast for another dose of sky and sea. #HikeNL #ExploreNLWhen you seize the sun-lit day and find some water, you also find yourself. Thank goodness for that. It’s a beauty hike along Manuels River. I highly recommend it.I am climbing a stairway to heaven-otherwise known as the @eastcoasttrail.TA’s Facebook Page
