Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
The Olympic Peninsula Bicycle Alliance holds a bike rodeo every year to teach kids safe biking skills.
They learn to stop safely, avoid objects, learn hand signals and road safety.
Lots of volunteers from biking groups, state park rangers, Sequim Police department were all involved.
We even got “Mad Max” here riding by himself for the first time. His mother started crying…It was a pretty cool day!
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.
At the San Juan Sculpture park there is! I put an artistic twist on this photo.
My friends and I go often to Lake Crescent in the Olympic National Park. It’s only 45 minutes from Sequim. No matter the weather there are gorgeous things to see and hike to.
I think this is a Song Sparrow…he at least thinks he is. I sat there watching him at the top of this branch sing away with a pretty lil song for almost a half an hour.
I was at the Jamestown S’klallam village at the end of Sequim Bay. They have lovely trails and benches to enjoy the wildife and the bay.
Walking thru a park you can see Canadian geese nesting everywhere. This one had built her nest next to the tree.
This one was next to a rock–otherwise right out in the open. Another was just in the middle of a field-but I lost that photo.
My biking group rode from the ferry in Bainbridge around west Seattle–this was a gorgeous view from our trail.
