Sneak Preview NW Flower & Garden Show

Posted by Kathleen Cragun

Today started out badly.  I set out to go to the 2010 NW Flower & Garden Show Sneak Preview.  My car battery was dead. Thanks to a kind husband who traded cars with me I still got to the press sneak preview. I had 2 cameras, one a video, but my good? computer froze before I got the videos up for this post, so I will just show you these still shots. UPDATE for videos of the event go to www.issaquahhighlandsundressed.com

Not to worry, the gardens were just as good as they always were.  People have been a little concerned due to new owners.

During the sneak previews, garden creators and landscapers are still putting on the finishing touches and cleaning up. The preview lasts 2 hours, at which time not only do we have to be out but so do all the above.

Goats, chickens and rooster make an appearance too (really).

The Northwest Flower and Garden Show starts tommorow and runs through Feb. 7th. Washington State Convention Center.
