Every
April, the Skagit River Valley farmland
just north of Seattle is awash with acres and acres of Crayola-like
colors. Here tulips, daffodils,
and irises of all colors bring a touch
of Holland to the Pacific Northwest. The fields glow during both
the early morning and late-afternoon light. Even overcast days
yield great photos. Just drive along the country roads between
Mt. Vernon and LaConnor
to enjoy the show. A map of the tulip fields and additional info
are available at www.tulipfestival.org
