Some Day The Sun Will Shine And Have Not Will Be No More (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
— Tennyson IT WAS LATE APRIL and almost miraculously the ice along the east and northeast coast had stayed several miles offshore, making possible a very early start to the coastal boat season to northern Newfoundland and Labrador. And so, unlike the harrowing experiences of my mother and her five children crossing Placentia Bay in a snowstorm in 1951, I had a relatively easy time as the boat made its way along the east coast of the island, stopping first at Twillingate and then on to La Scie. La Scie was the easternmost point of land on the Baie Verte Peninsula, nestled under Cape John with a U-shaped harbour, and every inch a fishing community. This was the proud home of trap fishing crews and a large fish plant. The news here was all to do with fishing, the wind, the ice in the spring, and the price of fish. Sammy Thoms’s general store was where the old fellers hung out, and if you wanted to get a real quick lesson of trap fishing on the northeast coast of Newfoundland, this was the place to visit.
