It's been a sunny week , mixed with a few cool overcast June days, for the most part here in Sequim.- Mt .Baker was visible to the northeast for many of the days. This morning's mist gave way to the hot sunny days that we've grown to expect! The roses have been blossoming -
this is their week! - and the daylilies have started to flower.
At the farmers' market, one of the booths featured 6" pots of strawberry plants - with the crop already taking shape. This plant got a new home, and two years later, is producing fat new strawberries!
