I spotted this poster at the Grange last weekend…just a heads up for the locals.

On my way to a meeting I spottted these off West Anderson Road. I just thought they were pretty.

At the intersection of the Dungeness River Bridge on East Anderson Road, you will find the Old Dungeness School House. Although the events section has not been kept up to date, if you click on the link, you can visit and read about an important part of the past here on the Sequim Prairie.

P.S. Regarding yesterday’s post, it has been pointed out to me that ‘Bessie” has horns…could it be that Bessie is a boy? On a closer look at my photo, I see no evidence of a “bag”, as in udder. Goodness!

I don’t know why they call them “Bessie”, but Bessie and her baby live on the back road out of my subdivision. I see them some mornings.

Last weekend the North Olympic Model Railroaders held a show and sale at the grange. It was great fun to go and see the trains from the very small gauge up to the larger models. I believe the gentleman told me the ones in the thumbnail with the tree are an F scale. They even had a play room for the little ones. I think everyone had a good time.

I’m on the way to the Grange on Saturday to check out the train show (more tomorrow) when I spotted this old truck parked in a yard. I love the arrangement. It just made it look like fall. The apples and the barn in the background were the perfect touch.

PS. Happy 75th Birthday Bill Burnside! Many happy returns of the day.

Just down the road, at the corner of Kitchen-Dick and Old Olympic Highway, is the Weyerhaeuser Sequim Seed Orchard. Once a year you see these funny little machines all over with seed pickers at the controls. The seed cones are all picked by hand. For some reason they don’t pick all of them. It’s fun to watch.
