Sequim Summer Weather News

We are back! Here is what happened in the meantime. Keoki got his surgery at the Port Angeles Hospital to get his torn meniscus repaired. Things went fine. Surgery was on Thursday last week. Monday he was back at SARC teaching his stretch class. Still has to take it easy at the moment, which is not easy for guys like him. But with the big goal of playing tennis at Sequim High School and go hiking in the Olympic Mountains again, he is more considerate than usual.

Everyboduy who visited Sequim this month for a vacation, was wondering what was going on with the summer weather in Sequim. Normally, July and August are the driest and the hottest months in Sequim and even in Seattle. Well, weather patterns and climates change everywhere. Keoki and I can only judge from the one August we had experienced in Sequim last year. No reason to complain then. Maybe sometimes some rain would have been welcomed by plants and residents. This August was having some rain plus temperatures were generally colder than regular summer weather in Sequim during the past years.

To tell you the truth. We both don't complain and are happy with what we get. Carpe diem or Seize the day! Yesterday, we picked 3 containers of fresh organic blueberries. Today I took a bike ride through Carrie Blake Park and beyond to find more good spots for wild blackberry picking. We could not have had any nice weather in Sequim today...sunny and blue skies all over. Not just a blue hole but an entire blue sky! Hope you had a chance to look at all the webcams today in Sequim and Sequim area like the Dungeness Spit, Hurricane Ridge and Crescent Lake. Beautiful!!!! Summer is the perfect time for your Sequim Vacation.

Last but not least, a few Sequim News. Enjoy your Sequim Vacation. The Sequimers

U-Pick Berries in Sequim

Berry picking in Sequim is still big time for U-Pick Berries for blackberries and blueberries at Graysmarsh Farm. I picked my last raspberries there over the weekend. You might still find some later ones. Don't pick the ones which are overripe. They don't taste good!
