Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival

This is about 45 minutes south of Portland in a town called Woodburn.  Every year at this time they have a festival celebrating their beautiful tulip fields.  You can pay a ridiculous price of $10/car to go in and walk around in the fields, take pictures, play on old tractors, and spend even more money on kids' rides, flower bulbs, and food.  Aside from the cost, it's a beautiful place.  It's definitely worth paying for once in a while.
