Music in the Park-Sequim

Every Tuesday at 6pm in the summer we have Music in the Park at the amphitheater in Carrie Blake Park. This night featured Black Diamond Junction which is a local favorite. Here everyone is dancing to the song SHOUT. I love the joy this little girl had dancing to it.

All the concerts are free. Everyone brings blankets and picnics.

The really fun time about living in a small town is that there is always room at an event for your family (even if you show up late!) AND you will always know lots of people. I went to the event by myself, but worked my way from group of friends to group of friends–it was a smorgasbord! A great time as usual.

Amanda Bacon always give a great show!

The race is on…

And for a very good cause-the Clallum County Hospice Program. They had proper 1&2 man sculls, kayaks, row boats, canoes, and even paddle boards for a race around Sequim Bay. You can’t see the paddle boarders because they are so far behind. One even layed down on his board. BUT they did all eventually finish and raise a lot of money in the process.

This was the view of Sequim bay from my porch.

Sequim Sunshine Festival

This weekend was the first Sequim Sunshine Festival, an event to provide relief from the winter blues. And, organizers say, ” If the sun doesn’t shine, no worries. We’ll help you make your own sun.”

We were out to take a few photos. The sky got black, then blacker. It didn’t rain long before hail cut loose. Not long after the hail stopped another squall brought a light snow flurry.

Sequim Sunshine Festival? I don’t think Mother Nature got an invitation.
