Donna, Grace and I took a short day trip to Sequim last Wednesday. The plants were just starting to bloom in the lavender capital of North America and it was quite a site to capture on camera. Grace took her two naps of the day in the car taking up most of the 2 hour drive there and back and she loved the farms. Not surprising since the one thing that soothes her when she's grouchy or fussy is to just simply be outside no matter the weather. We decided to go during the week instead of battling the crowds during the official festival weekend. We had most of the farms to ourselves, able to visit with the farm owners, not to mention browse all the many fabulous smelling lavender made products in the gift shops and enjoy a nice lunch at a local cafe complete with lavender soda and lemonade to drink and lavender white chocolate cheesecake. Yum. More pics on our Picasa page:
