My recollection today takes me to Mount Angel Abbey in Oregon where the priests of the Baker Diocese are doing their annual retreat. Close to the Abbey there is a spectacular tulip farm in the town of Monitor. So my nostalgic memories today take me to that splendid field where thousands of tulips are now in full bloom. Although I cannot be there to enjoy them in person, however my collection of photos let me share some of the photos I took on that day. The first time I was there in 2007, I was oblivious of the sun roasting my head, and forgetting to take a hat with me, I ended up with a severe heat stroke, as all the priests looked at me when I returned to the Abbey, and everyone was saying, 'what happened to your head?' It took me a whole week to recover, but the over 150 photos I took let me forget of any pain I felt on my head. (click to enlarge)
