Sequim Daily Photo

This smiling lady was a volunteer at Angel Farm. They had a French Theme with food from Cest si Bon. As you can tell by her shirt, she belongs to Soroptomist International. It takes a lot of volunteers to make the festival happen. I have posted other Lavender pictures on an additonal page (under the picture on the right). By Wednesday I promise to move on to something else.

At the farms today there were lots of people with cameras…and why not! The lavender was in it’s glory. Rumor has it that the power outage was due to a fire at the Luella substation. People lost power from Diamond Point to Carlsborg. Fortunately it stayed on at my house. I had quilters here and they do like to have their machines running. We will see tomorrow when the PDN comes out. We are small enough here that we do not have a Saturday paper.

I’ll bet you thought you were going to see something purple…patience. I worked two shifts at the quilt show and then the lights went out…all over town. this would have been bad enough on an ordinary day…but with all the visitirs, it made for interesting driving. Thank goodness the police department and volunteers showed up to direct traffic. No word yet on why the lights were out for that long. More purple-lavender-and quilts are in your future. I plan to make some time tomorrow to come visit your blogs.

It take a lot of volunteers and hard work to make a quilt show happen….
