Little Claire Horner

Claire helping with the blueberry picking - look at her finger.

Berry, Berry

One of the highlights of Sequim is the 1600 acre Graymarsh Farm. It is a u-pick farm very close to Megan's home. Aside from lavendar, they have blueberries, strawberries, loganberries, blackberries, boysenberries, raspberries and artichokes.

Right now, blueberries and raspberries are still in season. Blackberries are close and strawberry season just ended.

It is heaven for me - it is beautiful and the berries are delicious! We have been berry picking two days.

Sequim is also home to herds and herds of elk. Some of the elk have collars and when they are within a mile of a major road a light goes off on signs along the road to warm motorists that elk are near and to be careful.

Sweet Sequim

I arrived safe and sound and more than ready for sleep - I was up for more than 24 hours!

I forgot what a beautiful, wonderful, peaceful place Sequim is. The sun shines and there is always a soft cool breeze blowing. The air is fresh and clean. The atmosphere is relaxing - you just don't have to be in a hurry here. It is refreshing. And - it is the Lavendar Capital of the World :-)

Claire is just as cute as anything - she jibber jabbers non-stop and of course I think she is the smartest girl ever.
