We spent the night in Notre Dame Provincial Park off the Trans Canada highway (on our way to St. John's) and spent a really nice morning taking our time - just relaxing with a coffee and breakfast - it was nice.... kind of like when we first started dating.
Charlie HAD to stop in Gander at the Aviation museum - Museum's are sometimes creepy, with those 1930's mannequins that they dress up in WWI and WWII uniforms. Charlie got a postcard with the picture of all the planes that landed on September 11th, 2001 in Gander, Newfoundland when all the flights were grounded. He is now looking for a post-office to mail it immediately - the Tourist Info. office is a little portable on the side of the highway. He is so child-like sometimes, yet all his instincts and decisions have been BANG ON!! ...right on the money. I have never seen anyo
ne with such good luck, or maybe it's not luck - maybe it's just an entitlement attitude - he always operates as if things can't HELP but go his way. I need to start doing more of that.

rest of our journey. Life is good.
FYI - when we read our email yesterday, Charlie found out that his great-Aunt Sophie has been checked into the hospital for some tests and then they took her to the Grenadier to stay for a while as she cannot walk very well right now. Charlie is visibly worried.
