Marilyn B-Day pt 2

Checking out the lavender festival






We took a walk along a trail inside the state park this morning, then headed into the town of Sequim itself for the Lavender Festival. It’s basically a big street fair with most vendors selling something made of lavender.

There are also tours of lavender farms for those so inclined. We didn’t buy anything except a lunch sandwich made of crepes, but did enjoy listening to our local garden guru, Cisco Morris give a talk to the crowd. He’s very entertaining.


Harris at one of the cache spots



When we left, we decided to do a few more caches. We saw that several were along the Olympic Discovery Trail, so decided to bike to them. It was a gorgeous day to ride bikes, lots of sun, a beautifully shaded trail, and almost no traffic. A couple of the caches took us a while to find, but that just makes it all the more fun when we do finally find them.


Some interesting trail users we saw



Then we headed to Poulsbo, and had dinner with Marilyn and Gene. We did a little prep work for the party, played cards and went to sleep.


And some pretty flowers...that weren't lavender
