First post of my own. I spent last Saturday driving 630 miles, from 5:00 AM to 9:45 PM - to see the 100 year bloom of wildflowers n Death Valley. It was stunning. I don't know how long it will last, but if you are a fan of these things you should really go.

Gary

Angelo,

Thanks for your welcome! The hundred year bloom is like a hundred year storm - a very rare event. Basically an unusal confluence of rain and weather at an optimal time. You are lucky to experience this once in a lifetime, or so I understand.

Gary
