It's tulip time in Skagit county. Tulip festival means fun events like art shows and the street fair, which is my favorite event. (It was awsome this year as always-Someday I may participate and not just shop!) It also means art at the Winery. tulipvalley.net This is a co-op show, which means the artists are the workers. Not in the winery, they have their own learned staff.
The sun is out and with it brings the fresh colors of spring. It's been blue and grey for a really long time, which usually doesn't bother me. I like blue. But it's been a reeeaaalllly long time. I long for the hot colors of the tulip fields when the sun beats down on the flowers and you can spot the red and yellow ribbons on the landscape from miles away. Of course come August, I'll be complaining it's too hot, but we'll save that for August. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying the bright spots in the weather, which actually make the downpours more enjoyable too. There is literal light at the end of the figurative tunnel.
And the Winery show goes on! It's been extended past the end of April through Mother's day and if all goes well, will be open weekends through the end of May as well.
