Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
It was just barely blooming when I went this year (April 5th) this year– I went to a new smaller garden right next to the big ones. It was called Garden Rosalyn. It was all sculpted with beautiful wavy lines. There were no big fields. It was beautiful. I can only imagine when in full bloom.
I turned this into a Van Gogh style painting.
Skagit Valley
After a 20 mile bike ride around LaConner it was time to stop and smell the flowers so to speak. Roozengaarde Tulip is one of my favorites. They plant in such interesting ways and have great mountain backdrops. If you haven’t gone it’s a must!
I had to go talk with this cutie’s mom. Every time I turned around she presented a great photo–those cherub cheeks! But I didn’t want her mom to think a was a weird stalker. So I sent her the files afterward. It was a win win for everyone. (Well maybe not all the flowers that got crushed or picked…)
Here’s another view from the Skagit Valley, north of Seattle. That bright red stripe in the distance is a tulip field in bloom during the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival last April.
