It doesn’t get any lovelier than this, a warm sunny day amidst brilliant
blossoms. Rain has kept Daffodil Hill closed but the sun came out and we
headed for a morning of traipsing through the flowers.
Daffodil Hill is a
project of love by the McLaughlin family who bought the land in 1877 from Peter
Denzer, a Dutch native. Denzer started planting the daffodils and the
McLaughlin’s and their descendants the Ryan’s have continued to keep the gardens
open for visitors.
There are now about 300,000 plants in addition to
donkeys, peacocks and antique farm equipment, all making for a most picturesque
landscape.
This was theoretically the last day of our trip but some just had to stay
another day to enjoy the beautiful weather, relaxing atmosphere and lovely
setting. The evening ended with a fun gathering around the campfire.
We hope you enjoyed your vicarious travels with us and will sign up for the
next RV trip in May 22 to Gold Ranch at Verdi, NV. Also watch for
information on the October trip to Petaluma and November trip to Paso
Robles.
