This actually worked out well for us because the farms were sprucing up and getting prepared. The picture of the farm shown is Purple Haze Lavender Farm located on Bellbottom rd. While there we also went into Olympic National Park on Hurricane Ridge. A friend of ours, who left us too soon, moved to Sequim and used to volunteer at the local radio station doing a DJ gig. John loved doing the radio and also loved the climate in Sequim. After visiting their we understand why he liked it so much. We miss you John.
