TRIP REPORT

Darrell with Mom Dorothy admiring the spring color!Last month (April), Jackie and I were fortunate to spend some time with my parents, Dorothy and Leon as we visited the Skagit Valley Bulb Festival.  It is located in the area where Daffodils and Tulips are grown in the state of Washington, near Mt. Vernon. We saw fields and display gardens and learned more about growing flower bulbs in our Southern California area. It was so inspiring!  We can hardly wait for September when our bulbs will arrive at the nurseries.  In the meantime, here are some trip pictures to enjoy!!!  Photos are thumbnail versions, click for a closer look.
