Putting in a fence is so much work it’s a shame the toll that time and weather can take on it.

Clark barn
Sunset view of the Clark barn. The Clarks are one of the early pioneer families in Dungeness. Beyond the barn, in the right side of the picture, is a beautiful two story farm house that operates as Clark’s Chambers Bed & Breakfast. We stayed there twice before we moved to Sequim and loved the comfortable hospitality of the Clarks and the incomparable beauty of the setting. Our room was clean, comfortable, and had a spectacular view of the Strait and Mt. Baker. Family style breakfast with Glenda and Bob Clark was a delicious start to the day.
Barn and Baker
Views of Mount Baker, on the eastern side of Puget Sound, are elusive and ethereal from the Olympic Peninsula. It was a treat to see it beyond this barn when we visited the Skagit Valley for the Tulip Festival last month.
Barn rerun
I’ve posted this barn before. The first time the perspective could have been better. I was happy to discover a road that provided the angle to better view this beauty.
Bob Clark, whose pioneer family goes back generations in Sequim, tells stories about this, his grandmother’s barn. I believe she may have been a Cline – as in Cline Spit – but I’m relying on memory, which is a weak crutch.
A bit of heaven
I caught this sight up in the hills. A beautiful spot. A barn or two. A horse. Green, open land. It strikes me as someone’s little bit of heaven.
Working barn 7
I’ve been getting regular glimpses of this working barn as I’ve driven on Carlsborg Road. The only unimpeded views are from a bumpy private road. I like the classic red of this one, and the “X” construction on the doors.

Working barn 6
Here’s another view of one of the working barns here in Sequim. This farm is just a hop, skip, and a jump to downtown. It’s on Sequim-Dungeness Road, one of the main north-south roads into and out of town. The farm shares the road with several churches, Sequim High School, the Sequim Library, and a variety of banks and businesses. And it’s for sale.
