My thanks to two friends  – Sharon Bailey and Nelson Pilgrim – in St. Anthony, in the north of Newfoundland, Canada, for sending me photos of “Kuan Yin” after a recent snow storm dumped 25 centimetres across the peninsula.  Though the boat is in a fairly sheltered spot, it’s interesting to see how the high winds kept snow from piling up on the deck or around the hull.

I had expected to see piles of snow almost burying the boat, because of her position on the sheltered side of the old granaries and the exhibition centre of the Grenfell Centre. Anyway, “Kuan Yin” looks safe and sound.  I confess that I’m far away right now. Here the challenge is heat and haze.  Thank you to my friends for keeping an eye on her – good to know she’s not alone.

  "Serendipity" is the art of finding something valuable or delightful when you're not looking for it. It's how you might also define living life as an adventure - which is something I seek to do each day - and accepting whatever happens, happy or hard.
