Tulips on Tuesday

So, James is selling cars at the downtown Hyundai dealerships, which means that he works all day every Saturday, but instead gets every Tuesday off.

This mostly sucks, because I can't hang out with anyone on Saturday, because clearly they are all spending time with their families, as they should be.  But it does mean that we get to hang out on Tuesday when there are less crowds at fun places? I'm trying to see the upside of this.

Well, this last Tuesday we spent our 'weekend' going to see the tulip festival at Thanksgiving Point.  I am from Washington, which means when I heard the words "tulip festival," this is what I envisioned:

So, not quite the visual impact of acres of tulips, but still pretty.  But the grounds are spectacular and look something like this:

So, basically, we wandered around for an hour and a half, taking in the sights and taking tons of photos, as we imagined ourselves to be highly artistic.  It was mainly a good opportunity to get some cute family pics like these:

So it turned out to be a fun day. 

Not a Saturday, but a fun day nonetheless.
