| ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Our annual pilgrimage to our far north coast ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀won’t come off this summer, must be postponed ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀indefinitely. Will Quoddy Head suffice ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀for 2020’s trek? I’ve telephoned ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ahead for reservations, close, at most ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀a mile inland. Or we could roll the dice, ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀just drive to a new suitable paradise ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀on the border west in the RV loaned ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀by friends we’d met on Adrien’s advice. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The children had been set to see St. John’s ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀again, anticipating East Coast Trail’s ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀adventures, Humber fishing, chasing whales . . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Such fun! But this virus outbreak’s sacrifice ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀of childhood memories serves less pros than cons. ⠀ |
