Two Weeks Left of Skagit Valley Tulip Festival

Tipster Steve was just reminding us--look at that, it's like a Vermeer up there--that the tulips are in. The Skagit Valley Tulip Festival is on through April 30, and there are a variety of ways to get there from Seattle, including your car and motorcoach. Says the Bellingham Herald of spring: "The fields are spread out over a 15-mile radius and events are scattered around the entire county. Activities include art shows, cruises and wildlife tours, farms and nurseries, local foods and products, museums and wineries." Now where'd we put our sabots?

    Here's our rundown on the actual daytrip experience from 2007. There's a driving-there tip in the comments, too!

    I've lived in Seattle for almost 10 years, and I've never been. Crazy! I'd really like to go this year. What are the crowds/traffic like on the weekends? Is it pretty bad?

    I was just up there last weekend and the "Tulip Town" farm said that they would be extending the festival to May 10th.

    @todbookless Where the tulips in bloom yet? According to http://www.tulips.com/bloommap.cfm it looks like not much color yet.
