Skagit Valley Tulips






In April, 45 minutes north of Mom & Dad's on I-5 at the Conway exit, the agricultural landscape bursts into color!


People avoid the tulips because the traffic can be horrendous.  But we solved THAT problem.  Pick a day that's 45 degrees and raining off and on!  Never more than 3 cars in any one spot!  The daffodils were about gone, but the tulips were gorgeous. 


And of course, what's a trip to the tulips without a stop at Snow Goose for ice cream!  Most of us went with a regular cone, but Dad wanted a waffle cone.  They filled it with ice cream! 

A fun outing, rain and cold or not!
