iPhoneography Monday: 4-7-14

iPhone Monday 4-7-14

The Skagit Valley tulip fields haven’t quite reached their peak but early April is a perfect time to see the Daffodils.  We drove through the valley yesterday afternoon and John was patient enough to stop the car twice while I tip toed through the mud in order to get a few pictures of these amazing yellow fields.

We’ll be back here again next week and if the weather cooperates I’ll have plenty of tulip photos to add to my collection.  Stay tuned!

      Thanks Alexandra! It’s a beautiful place but the flowers are only blooming for a short time. Soon they will be cut and then the bulbs are harvested for sale around the world.
