Welcome to my Journal!
This collection of weekly pages is my Sequim Journal, a photo diary of the early years of the 21st century here.
This Journal was started as we moved to a new address in Washington state, on the Olympic Peninsula west of Puget Sound and the metropolis of Seattle. After a full four years of living here, I saw the pattern of this lifestyle come full circle and welcomed that it repeated itself a bit. I divided my journalyear up into the four seasons; to see what life was like in Sequim at any given moment in the year, just go to that month, and enjoy. Much construction, both residential and commercial, has dramatically arrived in Sequim and it is no longer the place it was, as described in these pages. The fabric of this leisurely lifestyle has been ripped. I am not updating the pages any more, as the changes have been too rapid and overwhelming. Please keep that in mind when you come here to visit.
