Bike Rodeo–Sequim Style

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

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.
Exactly 11 minutes ’til mmmmm

Faraway Friday
How far do you have to go to see a Kilt?
Not too far! Just up to Victoria Canada a short 90 min ferry ride away. They were having a race and I was trying out a panning technique.
