Tulips !!! (better late than never)

I had Philip take pictures of the beautiful tulips around Maubeuge this spring. I wanted to share them on the blog. And then I never did. So here they are. Some people drive all the way to Holland to see the tulips, but we think they are pretty nice right here by home. The towns and cities of France are rated by the quality of their public flowerbeds. We take flowers very seriously!

I'm very sorry for those who do not enjoy flowers, but I think they are one of God's most beautiful creations! So here are some pictures I have taken of perennial flowers and "weeds".
