April 25, 2009 'All of our tulips fields are showing great color with many in full bloom!' promised the info on the Web.Hmmm. There appeared to be far fewer fields than in past years, and the fields seemed to be much smaller. Each field wanted to charge us $4 if we stopped to take pictures. Yikes! |

After a semi-futile search up and
down the sideroads we made our way to RoozenGaarde,
a three-acre show garden where we braved a biting cold wind and rain
to wander through the lovely displays. And what about the guns? Heh, on
our way home through Marblemount,
we literally ran into a Civil War re-enactment: Battle of the Northern
Pass and the Attack on Marblemount. Guns N' Tulips. What a day. |
AFter driving aimlessly around for a while we decided to stop at RoozenGaarde. There are usually lots of tulips on display there. We were very early so it wasn't crowded. Not then, anyway. |
Granted, the displays are very colorful and beautiful, but I did miss the acres and acres, rows and rows of tulips. |
An eyeful of these certainly brightened up a dreary day. |
