Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
Every year on the third Full weekend of July (Friday Saturday Sunday) Sequim holds its’ Lavender Festival. We have a street fair, lavender farm tours (3 requiring admission AND 15 Free admission), barn dances, FREE concerts in the park and lot’s of purple fun. There are also dozens more farms in the arear that aren’t on the OFFICIAL map.
This was taken with the Olympic Mountains in the background, at a newer farm called Olympic Bluffs Lavender Farm and Cidery.
This beautiful mallard was doing all sorts of moves to attract the attention of a female in the pond across from John Wayne Marina. He caught my attention–I think he was disappointed!
Ok my fireworks photo skills are highly lacking–(and I left my tripod in the car) But it was a GREAT show especially for a little town.
Every year the town gathers at Carrie Blake Park for the fourth. There are food vendors, activities, music all afternoon ending with the fireworks show.
The amphitheater always has music every Tuesday throughout the summer. Black Diamond Junction is a mainstay on the peninsula. Amanda Bacon a local Sequimite keeps us all entertained!
Old and young like to dance
This Kingfisher had quite the grip on this lil branch to stay in the windstorm.
Aren’t his lil feet cute?

I cant believe it snowed into April this year. It did make Pioneer Park in Sequim exceptionally pretty!
This kingfisher caught a little goby and was shaking the heck out of it before he downed it in one gulp!
