Last week we were invited by our family to go down near Mt. Vernon, Washington to see the tulips. We were delighted to see the fields in a riot of colour not just the reds, oranges, scarlet and just so many others, but sometimes there were many colours in just one flower. With the sun shining through the blossoms it was really breath taking. There were very narrow blossoms; some had ruffles like the Parrot tulip, so many varieties to enjoy. God must have been so delighted to create them for us.
The flowers will be blooming for about another week, while some may be finished, some will be just starting to bloom. If you cannot go this year, plan to go next year. It is about a six hour drive from Kelowna. What a blessing it was for us to see them again.
