Excellent Adventures: Woodburn Tulip Festival


Acres and Acres and Acres of Tulips - what a sight!



Isn't it funny how you can live some place, but often never see many of the fun things the area has to offer? Life and schedules so often get in the way. When people come to visit, that's when we see what's around us - when we're showing it to others.

I've decided to try and stay a "perpetual tourist" and always be on the look 
out for new things to do and see and try.
Plus, this way I feel like I'm always on vacation (ha).

 My mom has lived here for 40 years and never made it to the Tulip Festival in Woodburn, so I decided to take her on an Excellent Adventure to the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm.

Forty acres of stunning beauty backed by Mt Hood. The fields are striped in color with so many types of tulips. I took one picture after another (me and everyone else). Nothing like trying to balance in the middle of a field trying to get the perfect shot. #graceful

 In addition to all the beauty surrounding us, they were lots of vendors, food, games and rides for the kids, as well as their darling gift shop. You can buy fresh flowers or order bulbs to be delivered.  #somanytochoosefrom

Makes me want to plant my whole yard in Tulips.








Hope you can be a "tourist" this week and enjoy your little corner of the world!

Love, Steph
