Trivia

The Board

Them days you sent a youngster up the road to say there was a game on. Now you send the code, and if a chair's still empty when you deal, one of the regulars takes it.

Down the road

Well, Sunday after Mass we'd walk it. Start at the gate and go down, and every house along here I'll tell you who's in it.

St. Vincent's beach

st-vincents · The Irish Loop

A steep beach on the Irish Loop where humpbacks feed close enough to hear.

St. Vincent''s-St. Stephen''s-Peter''s River sits on a deep-water beach on the southern Avalon where capelin roll in summer and humpback whales follow them right in to the shore. The drop-off close to the beach is why the whales come in so near; it is one of the best shore-based whale watching spots in the province.

How to get there

Route 90 south from the Trans-Canada to Route 10, the Irish Loop; St. Vincent''s is on the shore road.

Fact

Where that comes from

On the go

Them days the garden party was the whole summer. Here's what's on the go now, and when.

The kitchen

Well, Sunday the pot was on before Mass and the smell of it met you at the gate. Here's what was in it, and how it's done.

The hall

Them days the hall had a dance Saturday and the kitchen had music the rest of the week. It's still playing. Come in and listen.

The yarns

He said, you know the one about the light on the water. I said, I do. That's a story, mind, and I'll tell you which parts.

Not the house

No, I said, that's not the house. It was down just below there. Go back up the road.
