Well, our much awaited 2007 Sequim Lavender Festival is history. We had a nice crowd of visitors who joined the fun at the street market in Fir St with music, lots of lavender products to buy and great tasty food to eat. Fragrant lavender scent was in the air everywhere! The lavender farm tour buses were running all day long.Sure it would have been nicer with sunshine - Sequim summer weather was beautiful before and after the Lavender Festival. How ironic! Sequim Gazette wrote that Sequim had 5000 visitors less at this year's festival. Whether the reason was the overcast weather or not.
Everybody had a great time and guess what we did not have to cope with hot temperatures over the 100 F as so many states had. It was already too much when Sequim temperatures reached a decade high of 94 F on one day at the beginning of July. We even ran our AC with our heat pump. We feel blessed with our moderate Sequim weather. Who wants hot, go to Mexico or just California!
I promised a few lavender photos. Here they are. I took them at Purple Haze Lavender Farm. The colors, the smell and the location! Come and see for yourself on your next Sequim vacation. Don't wait till next year. Sequim weather in August and September invite for some great week or weekend vacation...hiking the Olympic Mountains, biking the Olympic Discovery Trail, picking berries are all favorites of ours!
If you consider moving to Sequim, first come and visit Sequim for a vacation. When looking for real estate or a house to buy in Sequim, we happily share our experience with you. We are excited to help a couple from Colorado to give them our view of life in Sequim! More from sunny Sequim with the blue hole soon. The Sequimers
