Sequim Winter Wonderland

Sequim in WinterWinter Wonderland Sequim

We got an email from Hawaii this morning ‘What’s up with the banana belt’ weather in sunny Sequim? Well, to tell you the truth this snowstorm caught us by surprise too.

By the way, we received a nice feedback upon our trip report on our Mexico vacation. Thank you. Back home in Sequim, winter has us in its grip. Here is the latest story from our Sequim life. Yesterday, WA state and even us in the 'banana belt' of sunny Sequim got hit (still get) by a huge snowstorm. It was continuously snowing for hours day and night. What a beautiful sight to wake up to this morning…everything deeply covered in the freshest white snow and an eerie silence around. Wow!!!!

Last night, we shoveled our garage driveway and this morning again. Our estimate is at least 7" of snow or more! It just started snowing again. Schools are closed. Kids are having great fun. Taking anything from their house to slide down our little hills. We enjoyed another long walk in the snow of beautiful winter wonderland Sequim. Luckily, we retired people don't need to get on the roads. No snow ploughs in Sun Meadows where we live. Electricity and cable are still working, and we have everything at the house we need...enough food, beer and fire wood for emergency in case of blackout.


To all our fellow Sequimers…enjoy and embrace the winter season! Stay tuned with our Sequim Blog to hear more from the Sequimers.
