I went with some of the Dirty Dozen to Oglebay to see the tulip display today.  We had super weather, just a little cool breeze, sunshine and the rain held off.  The tulips were just past their prime, but the show was beautiful anyway.  Why is it that many of us take Oglebay for granted and forget the wonderful asset that we have right in our back yard?  People drive for hours to come here, and yet those of us who live a 25 minute drive away seldom just go to enjoy an afternoon or evening walk.  This is the first time I’ve been to see the tulips in years.  Shame on me!  

Thanks to The Dirty Dozen for giving me the excuse I needed to get out and enjoy the tulips.
