There is always a large crowd at the Jonquil Festival. It appears the weather will be nice - warm and partly cloudy. Be sure and make the trip - it will be worth your time. Historic Washington is a fantastic historical site. I enjoy wandering through the park. Their website is interesting and informative Historic Washington State Park.
