Newfoundland in Pictures: Part 6

We've finally reached the last photo post for Marilu and Lucas's trip to Newfoundland. Following this will be a video post, which should contain 5 videos. I'll also be uploading all these pictures, as well as the ones that didn't make the cut (over 100) into their own folder in our online album. I'll provide the link once I've actually done it.

Last time at the beach. For what it's worth, that does not look a comfortable beach to curl your toes into.





These four are from the last night. Some good (and funny) family ones with Uncle Steve and Nanny.





Returning "home" to dad at the Montreal Airport.

Newfoundland in Pictures: Part 5

Wow, Marilu took a LOT of pictures during their trip. There will be one more photo post, and then I plan to do a final one with videos from the trip. Since I leave for Massachusetts myself on Thursday morning, I'll try and get them all posted by tomorrow night.

Not sure what the story behind this is, but I suspect someone ate well that night.


I vaguely recall Marilu telling me they went to the shore and caught little fish on one of the days they were there. Presumably, these are from that day. Great expression in the second shot.



Pictures from the next day. Marilu, Lucas, and an unknown baby.


Feeding the ducks and swans at a local park.


It just isn't a park visit if you don't sit IN the park sign.


And a few more from the park.




If you look closely, he's trying to touch a chipmunk.

Newfoundland in Pictures: Part 4

And the picture train keeps on rolling. By the way, not sure if I mentioned it, but Marilu and Lucas are in Massachusetts at my mom's place. They drove down last Thursday, and I'll be flying down this coming Thursday. Then we'll all drive back the following Friday. It sounds like they are having a good time so far. It doesn't hurt that my mom lives right on a lake, Lake Chargoggagoggmanchaugagoggchaubunagungamaug. A.k.a. Webster Lake, if you're not from town. And yes, I spelled that without looking it up. :)

Back to July and Newfoundland! This next picture makes me laugh. I can just imagine what is going through Lucas's head as he looks down at his puny ride.


Of course, he got to drive the bigger version shortly thereafter.


The kids clowning around in the water.


And on the deck. You can never have too many action figures.


Some more pictures with family.




A little water for the plant...


...and a little water for Lucas.


Our son makes another wonderful fashion statement.


These final pictures (for today) appear to be Lucas messing around with a light on the lawn. Speaking of messing around, you'll notice Marilu was fiddling with the camera settings in the second picture.

Newfoundland in Pictures: Part 3

The vacation pictures continue. Based on how many remain, I expect at least 3 or 4 more parts after this one.

Lucas rocks out at the swimming area with Uncle Steven.


That is one happy kid.


A couple of pictures with family. He looks like he has a diabolical plan in mind in the second one.



We'll be saving this picture for his wedding reception.

Newfoundland in Pictures: Part 2

More pictures from Marilu and Lucas's trip to Newfoundland in July.

A rare picture of Lucas with Marilu's dad. Hopefully, with their move from Labrador, Lucas will get to see him more often.


Having fun down by the water.





I have no idea.


Hanging out by the water with his Nanny.

Newfoundland in Pictures: Part 1

As most of you probably know, Marilu and Lucas vacationed in Newfoundland for nearly 3 weeks in July. Not surprisingly, a lot of pictures were taken of Lucas during that time frame. Unfortunately, since I was not there and don't know the story about any of these pictures, I really don't have anything to add. As such, the next few entries are just going to contain pictures (and possibly videos) that Marilu took that I happened to like. I'll then put all of the pictures into their own album on my Picasa site so you can browse the rest at your leisure.

So without any further adieu, part 1 of the trip to Newfoundland.

Ok, I can comment on this first one since we took it at our front door. Here's Lucas in his traveling duds, getting ready for the drive to the airport in Montreal.


I can also comment on this one since it's from that night. Lucas with his Uncle Steve and Nanny (Marilu's mom) at the restaurant. My guess is Don Cherry's, but I could be wrong.


I didn't expect to say much, but note the shoe choices. A rain boot and what I believe is a woman's shoe. Really?


If you click on this picture, check out Lucas's expression. Priceless.


The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Or orange, as the case may be.



More tomorrow!

Short-term plans

This weekend was a long weekend in Ontario, and we took advantage of that to relax at the cottage of some friends of ours for a couple of days. Now we're back, and that means I'll be posting some more pictures very soon. I think I'm going to take a break from catching up on old photos for a few days and upload the pictures Marilu took while the two of them were on vacation in Newfoundland. Be on the lookout for that over the next week or so.
