... raspberry, bakeapple and even rhubarb wines. We bought one called Moose Juice.
Our second night there we went to the All Around the Circle Dinner Theatre in Crow Head (also known as Crow ‘Ed, to the locals). Anyway, this group of 7 Newfoundlanders offer their talents 6 nights of the week. They not only perform music and skits, but they also cook up the meal and serve it too! We had a lovely cod dinner there and again a very ...
