MY NEIGHBOR INVITED ME (OK I INVITED MYSELF) TO JOIN HER EARLY ONE MORNING THIS PAST WEEK TO THE NEW YORK CITY FLOWER MARKET. SADLY THIS AREA OF NEW YORK HAS SHRUNK IN SIZE FROM ABOUT 10 CITY BLOCK TO JUST A FEW..... BUT STILL VERY EXCITING TO SEE THE COLOR AND QUALITY AND QUANTITY OUT THERE. WHEN POSSIBLE I TOOK OUT MY TRUSTY IPHONE AND SNAPPED AWAY.

| TULIPS, FABULOUS TULIPS......FRENCH AND DUTCH |
