Cape St. Frances in the mist

Cruising the St. Frances peninsula in the mist as a cold front chills the warm land makes for some amazing vistas.

Having Mr. Bruce Gold along as company paints an even more interesting set of pictures…

The lighthouse is undergoing some much needed refurbishment, and the penguin station is full of people and penguins. Fishermen were enjoying some good brusher / musselcracker action on the point in the gulleys, shad were coming out in the corner. The surf was lame and the water really, really cold – but still the weekend warriors were hard at it.

The afternoon led us to the St. Frances Resort down the beach, where we were pleasantly treated to a superb live performance by local but travelling musician – Johnno. Really good, as were the ice cold draft beers and seafood baskets. Thanks Fasie!
