Finally, I'm back to my blog!! I'll start with a pic of Mt. Rayonier from our airplane on route to Seattle to visit Suze and Jonathan! Lucky we were on the left side of the plane as we could see Mt. St Helens, Mt. Hood, Mt. hhmm, and the "3 sisters" mountains. How beautiful a site it was! Going across the Rockies was absolutely beautiful too.
This is lavender! We visited a lavender farm on the island and took many pics! It smelled heavenly! I could live on a place like this!
They are "distilling" lavender oil here. Quite a process-the woman is shaking the blossoms off the plants (they are not dry) and they follow through all these steps till the oil drips out into the jar! THAT is why lavender oil is expensive, and all other oils that might be more rare than this one. They were 2 weeks behind so were working day and night. They even sell lavender ice cream! and an assortment of soaps, mustard (I couldn't resist that one) creams, etc.
Took several pics of the farm, will post those later.
