Last year I visited this place twice, and both times there were no clouds in the sky - but got flowers. So on the way home from the Olympics, we decided to chance it. Forecast called for some clouds, and NOAA actually got it right for once.
Flowers are better than last year, and seem to have better bouquets this year Flowers are still budding, so I figure prime will be a week-two weeks out. I may head back out, but maybe not.
