I wanted to go up to the Tulip Festival in April. It had been many years since I had been there. The crowds are pretty large on weekends so it is best to go on a weekday. Jonathan and I were driving an older couple to church for many month - Steve and Naomi. Naomi loves flowers and I knew that she would appreciate an outing. I invited her and my friend Linda initially. I thought that it would be a good outing for ladies from church so I invited everyone. I was disappointed that no one else joined us. I'm still scratching my head about why I couldn't get any takers.
I did the driving. We went to Tulip Town which is about an hours drive north of our house. There are two different tulip farms in Mt. Vernon to visit. The other is called Roozengard.
I loved the colour variety. Remember to click on the photo to enlarge it.
This is my favourite photo from the day.
After our time in the fields, we went for lunch at Calico Cupboard in Mt. Vernon. It is a long time favourite spot. Jonathan and I have been going to that restaurant since probably the year 2000.
