We noticed in the local newspaper that it was Tulip Festival in Holland, Mi so we made plans to drive up the coast of Lake Michigan for a day trip. The road was all interstate except for the last 20 miles. The last time I was up here was to close on a lake house I owned 30 years ago in Saugatuk. At that time the only road was the two lane state highway from St. Joseph. Things have changed a bit.
The tulip festival was over since it was a Monday. All the booths and vendors were gone.The town is quaint. We stopped in at a wooden shoe factory, of course, and acted like tourists. We toured the local nursery. We drove around town viewing the old homes and public buildings. The tulips were still in full bloom.
After a few hours of wandering around, we headed back home.
