The Olympic Peninsula beckons with its captivating blend of lavender-scented fields, historic coastal towns, and magical gardens just waiting to be discovered. Join us, The ROAMies, as we unpack our adventures through this Pacific Northwest gem, starting in Sequim—North America's lavender capital—where purple fields and blueberry farms inspired a special tea blend bearing the town's name.Sequim proved the perfect launch point for our peninsula explorations. The quaint town buzzes with lavender culture, featuring shops like Sunshine Herb and Lavender Farm where everything from culinary seasonings to home goods carries the signature scent. Though we missed the Olympic Game Farm's drive-through safari experience, we'll definitely return for close encounters with bison, bears, and llamas.Our wanderings took us to the stunning Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, where a rugged trail stretches 11 miles round-trip to a distant lighthouse. We ventured to Port Townsend, a Victorian seaport brimming with maritime charm, art galleries, and the starting point of the ambitious Olympic Discovery Trail—a 130-mile pathway being built along a former railroad corridor connecting communities across the peninsula.The most unexpected adventure came during our cross-border journey to Victoria, British Columbia. A forgotten passport meant one of us explored alone while the other uncovered Port Angeles's hidden gems. Victoria's crown jewel, Butchart Gardens, revealed its century-old splendor through the Sunken Garden (transformed from an abandoned quarry), the star-shaped pond originally designed for ornamental ducks, and meticulously maintained Japanese, Italian, and Rose gardens.• Sequim serves as the perfect home base with its relaxing atmosphere and status as North America's lavender capital• Lavender and blueberry fields inspired a special tea blend named "Sequim"• Sunshine Herb and Lavender Farm offers everything lavender from seasonings to home goods• The Olympic Game Farm provides drive-through wildlife viewing opportunities for families• Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge features an 11-mile round trip beach walk to a lighthouse• Port Townsend charms with Victorian architecture, art galleries, and maritime history• The Olympic Discovery Trail spans from Port Townsend to La Push along a former railroad corridor: https://olympicdiscoverytrail.org/• Victoria's Butchart Gardens showcases stunning themed gardens including the Sunken Garden, Japanese Garden, and Star Pond• Travel mishaps can lead to unexpected adventures, as when one forgot their passport for CanadaWhether you're chasing Twilight filming locations, seeking tranquil lavender rows, or craving coastal hikes, the Olympic Peninsula grounds you in Pacific Northwest beauty while feeding your wanderlust.

Who remembers what life felt like during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, when cities and entire countries were shutting down right and left? Believe it or not, it all started five years ago this month! So we are digging back into our archives to bring you episodes from that momentous time all month long. On this episode, which originally aired on April 5th 2020, we ask our listeners: What does a day in the life of someone under lockdown look like? And they responded, offering a peek into their lives throughout the course of a day. We also offer our own.  From Lynn in San Francisco as she studies Italian to Scott trying to find some space for himself in his basement, from Madeline in Menlo Park remembering to be thankful to best-selling author Jess Walter who is very used to working from home. From Nancy in Wisconsin dealing with spring snowfall to Theresa in Port Townsend in a hailstorm to Jill in Manhattan, where the only sound on the city streets is the chirping of birds, and many, many others. We got so many glimpses into the lives of our diverse listeners that we had to divide this episode into two parts. But don't fret—the second part is available here. ***The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years!

In this episode, host Lyle Perez guides listeners through the shadowy history of Washington State. From foggy coastal towns to eerie castles, Washington's mix of historic landmarks and rainy, mystical landscapes creates the perfect backdrop for the supernatural. Discover 10 haunted spots in Washington where spirits are said to linger—whether in a vintage saloon or the haunted remains of an old hospital. Featured Locations: Oxford Saloon, Snohomish 913 First St, Snohomish, WA 98290 The Oxford Saloon in Snohomish has a reputation for dark encounters, particularly in its basement, where violent clashes are said to have taken place. The saloon is haunted by Henry, a bouncer and former policeman, whose spirit often appears near the basement stairs. Henry is known for being especially active around female visitors, with some reporting a sudden, unexplained pinch. Another spectral figure, Kathleen, was a madam who worked in the saloon, and her spirit is often seen in a purple dress, keeping close watch over the space she once managed. Mount Baker Theatre, Bellingham 104 N Commercial St, Bellingham, WA 98225 Built in 1927, this historic theater has become home to a young ghost named Judy. Employees report encounters with Judy's spirit in the balcony, where her soft laughter echoes, and occasionally feel her cold touch on their shoulders. Judy is known to have a playful nature, especially around male staff members, making her presence more charming than frightening. Other strange occurrences include the appearance of glowing orbs and faint, unearthly whispers throughout the building. Northern State Hospital, Sedro-Woolley 25625 Helmick Rd, Sedro-Woolley, WA 98284 Now part of the Northern State Recreation Area, this former mental hospital housed thousands of patients during the early 1900s, many of whom endured controversial treatments. Visitors often see an apparition of a nurse pushing a wheelchair or hear the faint cries of former patients. The abandoned buildings and ruins give off a chilling, otherworldly atmosphere, especially at night, making it a popular spot for paranormal investigations. Thornewood Castle, Lakewood 8601 N Thorne Ln SW, Lakewood, WA 98498 Thornewood Castle, a Tudor-style mansion, was constructed in the early 1900s and has its own share of resident spirits. Its original owner, Chester Thorne, and his wife Anna are said to haunt the hallways, making occasional appearances to guests. Paranormal investigators frequently capture cold spots in the castle's sprawling gardens, and ghostly apparitions have been reported in rooms where the Thornes once stayed. The castle's appearance in Stephen King's Rose Red has only added to its eerie allure. Port Gamble, Kitsap Peninsula Port Gamble, WA 98364 Port Gamble is known for the Walker-Ames House, a Victorian mansion that has attracted ghost hunters from across the nation. Visitors often report the sounds of children laughing and sightings of a woman, possibly a former nanny, roaming the halls. The house is a centerpiece of Port Gamble's annual Ghost Conference, where paranormal enthusiasts gather to explore the haunted locations around town. Manresa Castle, Port Townsend 651 Cleveland St, Port Townsend, WA 98368 Built in 1892, Manresa Castle is famed for its tragic ghost stories, including that of a Jesuit priest who allegedly took his own life in one of the towers. The priest's spirit, along with that of a young woman who is said to have leaped to her death, lingers in the castle's halls. Guests report feeling sudden drops in temperature and hearing faint voices when the halls are empty. Hotel Sorrento, Seattle 900 Madison St, Seattle, WA 98104 Seattle's Hotel Sorrento is haunted by Alice B. Toklas, a prominent literary figure often associated with the seventh floor. Guests staying in Room 408 frequently hear ghostly piano music and encounter an unsettling tall figure that is often seen in the hotel's historic elevator. In the Madrona Room, glasses have been known to shatter on their own, adding to the hotel's ghostly atmosphere. Walker-Ames House, Port Gamble 100 NE Rainier Ave, Port Gamble, WA 98364 The Walker-Ames House is considered Washington's most haunted residence, where a female spirit is seen peering out from the windows, and a ghostly young girl, known as Annabelle, often plays on the stairs. The basement and attic are the most active areas, with visitors reporting cold spots and unexplained movements, especially around old toys left out for Annabelle's spirit. The Rucker Mansion, Everett 412 Laurel Dr, Everett, WA 98201 The Rucker Mansion, built in 1904, is haunted by Jane Rucker, who died tragically after a fall. Jane's presence is often sensed on the staircase, where a faint scent of lavender lingers—a favorite of hers during her life. Guests and caretakers report doors slamming shut on their own and shadowy figures seen in the mansion's windows, watching over the grounds. Kell's Irish Pub, Seattle 1916 Post Alley, Seattle, WA 98101 Located in the former Butterworth Mortuary, Kell's Irish Pub has chilling roots as Seattle's first mortuary. Shadows appear near the bar, where a tall man in old-fashioned attire is often seen watching patrons. Another frequent ghostly sighting is that of a young girl, whose laughter echoes eerily from the basement. Staff and patrons frequently report cold drafts, shattering glasses, and a feeling of being watched, making Kell's one of Seattle's most infamous haunted spots.

The Boat Geeks #18 - Richard Lauridsen (Chief Operating Officer, Hawaiian Chieftain) Recorded 07.23.24As an educator and sailor, Richard became enthralled with tall ships the day he saw the Lady Washington emerge from a shroud of fog while sailing in the San Juan Islands. He combined his love of teaching and sailing by first becoming a sailing instructor, then an educator and crew with Gray's Harbor Historical Society when they operated both the tall ships Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain. Today he's developing educational programs for the Hawaiian Chieftain's new lease on life.Recorded aboard their floating studio in Port Townsend, WA, in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Daeron and Darren take a deep dive into the world of boating.This episode: Daeron and Darren learn about Richard's background and the recent three-year restoration process the Hawaiian Chieftain went through in the Port of Port Townsend's Boat Haven boatyard. Having witnessed the sad state of affairs when the Chieftain was first on the hard, the two Ds are summarily impressed with the near total restoration of the venerable tall ship from Hawaii. As a bonus, they got to enjoy a day sail aboard the ship on Admiralty Inlet. The video begins at the 32:00 minute mark of the episode.For more information on the Hawaiian Chieftain: https://www.sailhawaiianchieftain.com/To schedule Day Sails, Sail Training, or Special Events: https://www.sailhawaiianchieftain.com/sailingThe Boat Geeks are brought to you by the Boater's Guide, a free mobile app for PNW boaters.

She also happens to own the classic MV Glory Be, a 110-year old piece of Pacific NW history. Recorded aboard their floating studio in Port Townsend, WA, in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Daeron and Darren take a deep dive into the world of boating.This episode: Daeron and Darren are amazed at the life (or, as Betsy puts it, the "nine lives") of 'Glory Be', a 1914 bridgedeck cruiser built by the grandfather of the Grandy Boat Co. in Seattle, WA. After an eventful first few years, 'Glory Be' settled in as a typical family cruising boat. That is until 2002 when she burned and sank in a marina fire! Hear Betsy describe the incredible scenes in the aftermath, as well as the three-year restoration process. Betsy is the Executive Director of the famed Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding in Port Hadlock, WA. Founded in 1981, the School has taught wooden boatbuilding and marine systems skills to more than 1,600 students from around the world.

He was a poet, a ceremonial magician, a mountaineer, an alchemist, a philosopher, a spy, and a self-described sex and drug addict.

The Boat Geeks #15 - Kevin Ritz (ABYC Master Technician)Recorded 05.23.24Kevin, an ABYC Master Technician and Marine Systems Program Director at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding, turned his own family tragedy into a mission to prevent other tragedies and save lives. After losing his son to Electric Shock Drowning in 1999, he became a world renowned expert in marine electrical systems and founded the Electric Shock Drowning Prevention Association. Recorded aboard their floating studio in Port Townsend, WA, in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, the two Ds take a deep dive into the world of boating.A personal message from Daeron and Darren regarding this episode: This is our 15th full podcast and 100th video, and we don't think we'll ever do another one this important. When we started The Boat Geeks, education was the driving force. Both in terms of educating other boaters and ourselves. In this show, we discuss with Kevin what happened to his son Lucas and the causes of Electric Shock Drowning (ESD) starting at the 29:30 mark of the video. Leading up to that, we get to know Kevin and his background, as well as his boat and current position as Marine Systems Program Director at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding in Port Hadlock, WA.Electric Shock Drowning claims new victims every year, most recently claiming an 18-year-old in Virginia on July 4th ( https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/07/08/jesse-hamric-electrocuted-smith-mountain-lake-virginia/74329714007/ ). What makes it even more heartbreaking is it's an otherwise avoidable tragedy. It is our sincere hope that this video helps spread awareness about ESD, and that it might help save lives.For more information on the Electric Shock Drowning: https://www.electricshockdrowning.org/Electric Shock Drowning Educational Resources: https://www.electricshockdrowning.org/esd-resources.htmlU.S. Coast Guard Study mentioned by Kevin: https://www.electricshockdrowning.org/uploads/4/8/5/6/48564375/uscg_grant_2008.226165406.pdfNorthwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding: https://nwswb.edu/The Boat Geeks are brought to you by the Boater's Guide, a free mobile app for PNW boaters.

Hello to you listening in Port Townsend, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.Admiralty Head Lighthouse harkens back to the day of sailing ships powered by wind. When the ships entered the Strait of San Juan de Fuca from the Pacific Ocean the ship captain would know to steer a hard right to starboard when he saw the blazing beacon from the Lighthouse high on a bluff 127 feet above Admiralty Inlet before continuing safely south to Puget Sound and on into Seattle. Each lighthouse - no matter where in the world - has its very own distinctive light pattern, or signature. Lighthouses mark points of navigation, warn about dangerous coastlines, and guide ships into a safe harbor.But not all harbors are created equal for all boats. Some are for deep draft vessels, others for pleasure craft, and so on. Here's the thing about a lighthouse: it doesn't run up and down the coast beckoning all boats to its harbor. It serves a specifically sized boat.Question: Lighthouses don't chase boats; why do you chase clients? What is it only you have to offer? Who needs it  and wants it? How will you attract your particular client with your very own distinctive beacon of light? And, how will they know you are signaling them?Call to Action: If this episode resonates with you and you're looking for someone to help navigate you and your message, contact me on LinkedIn or Quarter Moon Story Arts for a no-sales complimentary consult.  You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a nice shout out on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!

Laurence Cole is a song elder and ritualist based in Port Townsend, Washington. An abiding thread throughout his life has been a longing to discover when, where, and how human beings have lived in respectful, sacred, equitable relationship with each other and the rest of Nature, and what arts, ethics, and practices enabled them to do so and pass such attitudes and behaviors on to the coming generations.   In these profoundly challenging times, characterized by separation, polarization, and the commodification of nearly everything, (and the consequent damage such a culture is wreaking on the life support systems of this world,) the capacity to stay together and work cooperatively as a people is crucial for effective healing and restorative action in all realms. The communal arts of group singing, ritual, and the collective crafting of beauty are primal “technologies” of connection and belonging, and have been the integral bedrock of all viable and regenerative cultures through the deep time of our presence here on Earth. When we take steps to reclaim that heritage, making use of nothing more than what we were born with, (our bodies, our hearts, our voices, our spirits) we can once again experience the bonding recognition that our true wealth is each other and that all flourishing is mutual.  Laurence has also been facilitating and offering community grief tending gatherings throughout North America for about 15 years.  His primary teachers and influences have been Sobonfu and Malidoma Somé, Angeles Arrien, Michael Meade, James Hillman, Francis Weller, Joanna Macy, and Martín Prechtel.  He is an advocate for this work not only for the ways it can bring release and healing for individuals, but also for the ways it can enable a renewed sense of respectful connection and belonging for groups of folks working together for restoration of mutually flourishing communityEpisode Highlights▶ Laurence's journey into grief work▶ The role of singing in grief rituals and why it is so powerful▶ The community and belonging we can find through grief work▶ The primal wound and modern disconnection▶ How we can find hope and healing in a disconnected worldLaurence Cole's Links & Resources▶ Website: http://www.laurencecole.com▶ Communal Grief Retreats with Laurence and Alexandra (ahlay) Blakely:  https://www.healingattheroots.com/communalgriefretreats▶ Grief Tending Mentoring Program: https://sacredgroves.com/intro-grief-tending  Download Beth's free business trainings here: Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into a Transformational Business:https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-businessClarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business ▶ Beth's Programs & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services▶ Beth on Instagram: http://instagram.com/bethaweinstein▶ Beth Weinstein on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bethw.nychttps://www.facebook.com/BethWeinsteinbiz▶ Join the free Psychedelics & Purpose Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/PsychedelicsandSacredMedicines

Join us in this episode for a conversation with Sarah Eichhorn, daughter of writer Dennis P. Eichhorn, known for his adult-oriented autobiographical comic book series “Real Stuff.” With reminiscences echoing a central premise of her father's work—that truth is stranger than fiction—Sarah recounts his birth and orphanhood at Montana State Prison. Sarah later talks of her fight to keep her infant child, which succeeded in part thanks to her father's intervention. With healthy measures of wit and soul, the younger Eichhorn's tales transport us to the Northwest's creative milieu of the 70's, 80's and 90's through which her iconoclastic father traveled. With a cast of colorful characters including comic book illustrators Peter Bagge, Pat Moriarity and Triangle-Slash among others, we learn of Dennis' lauded editorial work for The Rocket in Seattle and, later, for Libertarian publisher Loomponics Unlimited, based in Port Townsend, WA. As if a testament to the fullness of her father's capacious life, Sarah friendships encompass generations of talented artists: Anchoring this episode's soundscape are the polyrhythmic laments of Jason Webley (originally of Everett, WA) and the pensive ballads of singer songwriter Eilen Jewell (originally from Boise, ID). We'll also enjoy archival recordings of Dennis P. Eichhorn sharing stories. Warning: This episode's content is more suitable for adult listeners. "My life may not seem that vanilla, but it could have been a lot more wild; I've lived on the side of caution because of a lot of his escapades." ~Sarah Eichhorn

Listen to 58 Future Now Wise Democracy This week we are on the  road in beautiful Port Townsend, Washington, visiting Jim Rough, founder of www.wisedemocracy.org and Cassandra Firman, Jim’s wife and partner in updating democracy as we know it. We all know about the importance of voting, and the necessities of jury duty and national defence as citizens, but have you heard of collaborative ‘choice creation?’ Jim and Cassandra help us understand what that means and why it so important for our modern democracy to embrace. In today’s show we also explore related concepts, such as ‘to-beism’ in relation to the economy, unity through choice creation, the role of George Washington as a ‘space creator,’ building trust, and other elements in keeping our system up-to-date. Enjoy! Meeting with Jim Rough and Cassandra Firman 

When I began making jewelry 20+ years ago, sharing about your craft wasn't a thing unless you had peers close by willing to talk openly. There seemed to be an underlying fear that if you shared information, whether it was on a technique or a stone supplier, you may find this person doing similar work in the future. Does that happen? Well, I'm not going to lie... it's happened to me a handful of times and it really stung, especially since I believe in sharing.   Thankfully with platforms like Instagram and YouTube information is much more accessible and we can follow and form relationships with our peers. I found April Ottey on Instagram a year or two ago and I saw that she taught classes on organic casting in her area. I reached out to her to see if she did any online teaching because I really was struggling with my own organic casting. Unfortunately for me, she didn't teach online, but I took a chance and asked her if she might be willing to answer a couple questions in exchange for payment. She generously answered my questions while repeatedly ignoring my offer to pay her for her knowledge.  Although we didn't have many exchanges after that, I sensed April was the kind of person I would love to get to know better, so I was thrilled when she agreed to come on the show. April is so very kind and supportive... and this is what I think of when I think about the value of being in community with others. As artists and makers we can all benefit from a healthy community. About April... April Ottey is an artist living in Port Townsend, WA.  She has her studio a stones throw from Discovery Bay where she creates contemporary jewelry inspired by the natural world. Her close up inspection of various stages of birth, growth, death and decay in forests, rivers and beaches has shaped who she is as an artist. She casts, fabricates and incorporates the textures and intricate shapes found in nature to create jewelry that places nature into a new context.  April's work can be found in various galleries throughout the Northwest.  She is a member of the Northwest Designer Craftsmen Guild and the Seattle Metals Guild .   She has an MFA from Central Washington University and an undergraduate degree from Montana State University.  She taught jewelry and metal smithing at an alternative high school 10 years until she decided to pursue her own work full time in 2015.

In August of 2023, we took Labyrinths LIVE to THING Festival in Port Townsend, WA. In front of a packed house at the Wheeler Theater, we chatted with Chris Ballew, lead singer from The Presidents of the United States of America, the man behind Caspar Babypants, and one of our favorite contemporary musicians who's been putting out jammy psychedlic solo records for the last few years. But these new records also have a kind of Buddhist spirituality to them, and that prompted us to ask: how does one's sense of the universe, and of self and ego evolve over time, and how does that affect the art you make, and vice versa?

Most of us may automatically think “monarch” after hearing the word “milkweed,” or vice versa. And that's in fact a critical and intimate relationship, the one between monarch butterflies and native milkweed plants. But the genus Asclepias offers sustenance to a wide diversity of animal species beyond just that one beloved insect. Today's guest is Eric Lee-Mader, author of the recent book “Milkweed Lands: An Epic Story of One Plant: Its Nature and Ecology.” Eric is an ecologist at the invertebrate-focused Xerces Society, where he is the pollinator and agricultural biodiversity co-director. He and his wife also operate Northwest Meadowscapes in Port Townsend, Wash., providing regional native seeds and consultation services for meadowmakers.

Through educational programs in boat construction, an annual wooden boat festival, the magazine 48º North and now a maritime academy — Jake and the center are setting a world-class example of how to translate life at sea to every day people. -- If you liked this conversation you'll LOVE The QUARTERDECK, 59 North's 'deep dives on the art of seamanship.'
