Thanks for these freezing shots, Sawtooth!

I like those white and beautiful landscapes you enjoyed in your walk. Love the true Winter in Boise. I feel jealous watching so nice city and that Winter.

Thanks for the construction progress photos, too.

Greetings from Madrid, Spain!

I have always thought of Boise as a very picturesque city and your photos constantly prove this.

Congrats on all of the construction activity.

Great set! Ugh, threads like these make me really wish California cities could have snow once in awhile. So cozy and beautiful.

I used to host a local radio show about five years ago. We also had live music, where a singer/songwriter would join us in the studio. The first or one of the first musicians to play live in our show was Remco, who sang a song about Boise, where he had spent a year or so. So I got to know Boise first through music and, now, thanks to the contributions by Sawtooth, also through pictures. It looks wonderful, although the song most definitely felt warmer! :/
