We Pulled a 13' Scamp Trailer to Where the Highway Ends
Was the end of the road in Alaska the end of the road for us? Well, sort of. It was the end of the road for the Scamp trailer. In this episode of Playing with Sticks we take the Scamp camping on the Homer Alaska Spit. But, instead of calling it quits at the end of the road we hop on the famous Danny J Ferry to continue our journey across Kachemak Bay.
Each summer we celebrate our anniversary by making our way to an island. This year the destination was Halibut Cove and Ismailof Island across Kachemak Bay. To reach Halibut Cove we meandered along the Seward Highway until we hit the end of the road in Alaska, the quaint community of Homer. With a short drive out the Homer Alaska Spit we had our pick of oceanside Alaska rv camping sites. We quickly pulled in the Scamp 13' trailer, locked up the rig, and was headed towards our marine adventure!
Join us on more of our journeys with the scamp trailer and other small camper trailers as we cross this big beautiful state of Alaska.
In this video we mentioned we would put a link in the description of our anniversary trip to Kodiak Island. We actually have 2 videos from that trip the first one is highlighting Kodiak's Beaches and the second one is Kodiak by Car.
Don't forget to check out our playlists for more Scamp and Teardrop trailer videos as well as our gear reviews, safety tips, and lessons learned from the road.
Newfoundland and Labrador
Newfoundland and Labrador (/n(j)uːfənˈlænd ænd ˈlæbrədɔr/, French: Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador) is the easternmost province of Canada. Situated in the country's Atlantic region, it incorporates the island of Newfoundland and mainland Labrador to the northwest, with a combined area of 405,212 square kilometres (156,500 sq mi). In 2013, the province's population was estimated at 526,702. Approximately 92 percent of the province's population lives on the Island of Newfoundland (including its associated smaller islands), of which more than half live on the Avalon Peninsula. The province is Canada's most linguistically homogenous, with 97.6% of residents reporting English (Newfoundland English) as their mother tongue in the 2006 census. Historically, Newfoundland was also home to unique varieties of French and Irish, as well as the now-extinct Beothuk language. In Labrador, local dialects of Innu-aimun and Inuktitut are also spoken.
Newfoundland and Labrador's capital and largest city, St. John's, is Canada's 20th-largest census metropolitan area, and is home to almost 40 percent of the province's population. St. John's is the seat of government, home to the House of Assembly of Newfoundland and Labrador and the highest court in the jurisdiction, the Newfoundland and Labrador Court of Appeal.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Newfoundland and Labrador (, French: Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador; Montagnais: Akamassiss; Newfoundland Irish: Talamh an Éisc agus Labradar) is the most easterly province of Canada. Situated in the country's Atlantic region, it comprises the island of Newfoundland and mainland Labrador to the northwest, with a combined area of 405,212 square kilometres (156,500 sq mi). In 2013, the province's population was estimated at 526,702. About 92% of the province's population lives on the island of Newfoundland (and its neighbouring smaller islands), of whom more than half live on the Avalon Peninsula.
The province is Canada's most linguistically homogeneous, with 97.6% of residents reporting English (Newfoundland English) as their mother tongue in the 2006 census. Historically, Newfoundland was also home to unique varieties of French and Irish, as well as the extinct Beothuk language. In Labrador, the indigenous languages Innu-aimun and Inuktitut are also spoken.
Newfoundland and Labrador's capital and largest city, St. John's, is Canada's 20th-largest census metropolitan area and is home to almost 40 percent of the province's population. St. John's is the seat of government, home to the House of Assembly of Newfoundland and Labrador and to the highest court in the jurisdiction, the Newfoundland and Labrador Court of Appeal.
A former colony and then dominion of the United Kingdom, Newfoundland gave up its independence in 1933, following significant economic distress caused by the Great Depression and the aftermath of Newfoundland's participation in World War I. It became the tenth province to enter the Canadian Confederation on March 31, 1949, as Newfoundland. On December 6, 2001, an amendment was made to the Constitution of Canada to change the province's official name to Newfoundland and Labrador.
