Where have all the flowers gone

Well with all of the basement renovations that we have been doing and weekends filled with rain, we didn't quite make it down to the festival portion of the Tulip festival. Needless to say, upon arriving today, we learned that tulips have an incredibly short life. We did manage to find a few beds with colour left on them and from a distance could pass as flowers but for the most part, we just enjoyed the stems, fresh air and a walk with Simon down by the water.
