Tulip Fest 2011 photos

Bennett and Sebastien sent along nice photo sets from the Tulip Festival.

A handful of photos from the sets are after the jump. Re-live the flowers, the music, the lassos...

Comments

I always love -S's photos (and that police watchtower thing is funny -- I've never seen that before!)

Totally useless update: turns out the people in red were the Hash House Harriers, "an international group of non-competitive running, social and drinking clubs. An event organized by a club is known as a Hash or Hash Run, with participants calling themselves Hashers, or, Hares and Hounds". I learn something new every day.

@Kristi: Thanks!

The flamin' Federalist Papers were anonymous, for crying out loud. And so were the Anti-Federalist Papers. Guess what? Both sides were filled with negative statements. Somehow the republic survived.
