so you can walk through the fields Cool I can't wait until the 19th. I'm really looking forward to it. #7386066

Gerri R. Jones April 08, 2009

Beautiful perspective, fabulous capture of the photographers in the flower field, Donna! #7386099

Donna La Mattino Pagakis April 08, 2009

Thank you Ann and Gerri.

There are dirt roads, in between the acres of flowers, that people can walk up. With a low perspective the road is not visible. Most of the flowers are taped off so that people won't walk in between the rows of flowers.

It is a beautiful place to visit and I look forward to seeing you again Ann!
