Below are photos from the word of mouth car show—over 100 cars!

Wanna race for pink slips?
Last weekend a semi-impromptu car show occurred at the JC Penny parking lot in Sequim. Our friend Steve was driving our golf cart around when this guy on the rascal challenged him to a race. A good time was had by all!
What’s left so far
In May I posted a photo of the barn that once occupied the land in this photo. When I took this shot recently all that was left was the silo. The land is being repurposed for modular housing.
Here’s a shot that I took of it in 2014.
Cook’s night off
If there’s anything I’ve been doing a lot during home quarantine it’s cooking. Some days I’m more enthusiastic than others. But sometimes I miss things, often ethnic cooking, that I know I can’t cook as well as well as someone with skills and seasonings I don’t have.
The other day we got takeout from Sergio’s, a local Mexican restaurant. A chili rellano and enchilada verde with all the trimmings, including homemade chips and salsa. Enough food for two heavenly meals for this cook.
Theme Day: Park
Carrie Blake Park is a Sequim city park that packs a lot of attraction. I’ve chosen to highlight it for today’s City Daily Photo theme.
Its flower garden is glorious right now, filled with beautiful iris and peonies. Within a month or two the bed will be filled with blooming lavender, roses, and dahlias. It’s wonderful all summer.
Summer concerts are offered in the band shell, above, and the open grassy area is used for fairs and other events.
There are a number of ponds. One, which I’ve featured before, is the centerpiece of a Japanese friendship garden. A small facility can host community events.
The park also has a colorful playground as well as a nearby dog park, skate park and playing fields.

Springtime celebration
Pioneer Park is a little park in downtown Sequim. It’s on Washington Street, the town’s main drag. In springtime a combination of flowering trees and shrubs completely lights up this little corner of the world.
It’s a pretty spot year round but springtime is magnificent.
Theme Day: Municipal Building
Today’s Theme Day challenge takes a look at municipal buildings around the world. I could show you our City Hall. But who doesn’t like firemen? So here are a few views from our local Clallam County Fire District #3 fire station. It’s full of the vehicles and equipment that you want to see in an emergency.
Firemen are vital first responders. Ours include EMTs (Emergency Medical Technicians) as well as fire fighters. EMTs travel in an aid car, the first vehicle shown in this shot, the one with red and yellow stripes. Beyond it are trucks that face the front of the station, ready to pull out when called.
Our firemen are well trained and ready for action. The tax dollars spent supporting their work are worth it.
