St. Anthony, Newfoundland

gnagel · Sep 14, 2018

St. Anthony is located near the northern tip of Newfoundland. I spent two nights there...mostly because I was interested in visiting the nearby L'Anse aux Meadows. L'Anse aux Meadows is an archaeological site, a National Historic Site, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is the only authenticated Norse site in North America.

I will share my L'Anse aux Meadows photographs in a separate posting. The following images are from my time in St. Anthony itself.

1- Fox Point Lighthouse

2- St. Anthony United Church

3- Weathered blue shed

4- St. Anthony Harbour

5- Grenfell Interpretation Center

6- Dr. Wilfred Grenfell statue...the name of Dr. Grenfell is still seen throughout St. Anthony. In fact, I spent two nights at the Grenfell Heritage Hotel and Suites. Dr. Grenfell was said to be the first doctor to reach the region. He would later establish a string of hospitals, cooperatives and schools for the people in this vast area. He initiated health care services for the more than thirty thousand residents in Northern Newfoundland and Southern Labrador.

7- Hospital windows

8- Blue metal door

9- Fox Point Lighthouse

10- Lighthouse window

11- Power plant wall

Thanks for looking...next up, L'Anse aux Meadows!

Thanks...I'm starting to get the itch to travel again. But, I would really like to finish processing these pictures first!

Thank you, Jeff. Every year, I create a coffee table type book of the my favorite photographs from the past year. This year, I plan to create one that covers this road trip. The book is just for personal enjoyment--and I give out a couple of them to family members as gifts.
