We were 10 minutes into the dive at Creole Rock - I pulled the Downhome out of my B.C.D. (Buoyancy Control Device) vest - it started to break apart. (Sorry - Did the salt water test and did not work!) Opportunity presented itself again June 21, 2010 at the same location - this time I used the waterproof version. I do not know if the quality is clear enough for the Downhome - or perhaps not suitable content! Just an excuse to drop you guys a line is worth a million bucks! Should be back to the Rock sometime soon for a visit. ... Hide full submission

A blend of Newfoundland and Labrador blueberries with rhubarb creates this medium sweet wine that is fun, delightful and well balanced. It is a great sipping wine and goes well with cheese and crackers. Serve chilled.
Along the beaten path on a beach outside River Of Ponds, NL my friend Vadon showed me a fossal in the rocks. I'm not sure what it is and would like to know...please help.
