Yellow Flowers in Sequium

This is a macro photo of some yellow flowers in Sequim, Washington, at the site of Mary's grandparents' dairy farm. It's now an herb farm with an angry cat who doesn't like petting. We went to Sequim (Mary's familial source) the weekend before the wedding, for a third memorial to Don Wheeler, and a memorial for another relative whose name escapes me.

Update: the wedding went beautifully; photos coming soon.

A cat who doesn't like petting?! If I got my hands on that cat...

Thanks for sharing in the wedding shazz. I saw alpaca on the way back.

Yes, thanks Chris. And the alpaca were real, I saws em too, with my own two eyes.

Is this by chance the Chris Higgins I know that I met 20+ years ago at outdoor school?

Chris Higgins, this blog needs more red hot Chris Higgins action. What am I supposed to click on while you are at work if you don't update this page?

Love, your wife.

Note - I emailed the reader about outdoor school; it's not the same Chris Higgins. Though if readers met me at band camp in Virginia in '95 or '96, I'm open to inquiries.
