Tulip Season - a visit to Tulip Town

Everybody (and their cat) is posting photos of La Conner tulips on the Internet...so I'll only post one. The purple tulips were my favorite this year. I enjoyed my quick visit to Tulip Town and left a few dollars with the vendors...

Tulip Season

The beautiful Skagit Valley is full of tulips! They have finally arrived, after a winter of COLD weather. We also have a lot of daffodils in bloom right now - they are usually ending as the tulips come on. I took a trip to Tulip Town today (off the McLean Rd between Mt. Vernon and La Conner) and enjoyed the color. In this photo you can almost see Mt. Baker in the distance. A beautiful day.
