Do you love seeing the beautiful spring blooms around Albany and Corvallis this time of year? Then you won't want to miss the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival, where you can see thousands of tulips in bloom on a scenic Oregon farm, enjoy daily, family-friendly activities like hot air balloon rides, and participate in a variety of special programs throughout the event.

There's so much to see around Albany and Corvallis, but one of the other perks of living in the area is just how many wonderful places you'll find for a day trip within a short drive of home. The city of Newport is an excellent example of why that's the case, with an enticing mix of outdoor beauty on the waterfront, family fun, and great places to grab a meal during your adventures.
