My last picture I’ll post from the trail.  If anyone is local or visiting Sequim and enjoys hiking, it’s a great trail.  Even if you don’t enjoy hiking, the road up there has many great views and chances to see some wildlife (we saw deer, bunnies and chipmunks on the way up) and wild rhododendrons.   The foot bridge above was my only obstacle.  My husband took the dogs and happily walked over it, not a care in the world.  I got half way across and made the mistake of looking down at the water and just froze.  Couldn’t go back and didn’t want to go forward.  There is no rail on one side and something about that made me feel dizzy and panic.  I made it across and then on the way back when we got to the bridge there were two different sets of people there so I didn’t allow myself to think at all and just went across it.

I have been coming to Sequim Daily Photo for a couple years now and loved checking it each day to see what Norma, aka Lavenderlady, had come up with.  Norma is an incredible woman and my neighbor and friend.  When she said she was taking a break, I asked about taking it over.  I’d filled in a couple times before when she was on vacation and was a little familiar with it and I enjoy taking pictures.  So that is what brought me here.  If and when Norma is wanting to come back, even if it’s next week, it will be ready for her.  Thank you to those who have welcomed me and left a comment, each one brings a smile and encouragement.  Hope to see you around often!
