Every year our local botanical gardens at
Thanksgiving Point, hosts a Tulip Festival. I love, love to visit the gardens, (1) because I love plants and flowers and, (2) it feels like a different world to me. I especially love to go during the tulip festival. Here are some pictures I took from this years much needed excursion....

I don't know what I did right....or wrong when I took this picture but
the tulips don't look real. They looked they're out of a painting. | |

I'm a sucker for the purple and read color combo. |

It was the last day of the festival so there were people everywhere. Too bad I couldn't have said, "everybody MOVE!" when I took this picture. | |

Ahhh, the Secret Garden portion of the visit I could have stayed under the shade of that weeping willow all day....sigh. |

....and of course, you have to stop and smell the Hyacinths. Don't you love how Grandma's shoes coordinate so beautifully with the flowers? |
You secretly want to be a member of the red hat society don't you :)
