Re: Wildflower Dreams

"Seen that done that" is exactly my sentiment.  The cost, crowds, showers,
heat, rain, cold and I hate camping stops me from going every year like I
have in the past.  Many many years ago it was a lot more fun than it is now.
I will never PR there so I would only go for the challenge.  Now maybe every
three years or so I'll return.  Maybe next year.
