Sunday ~ Downtown

Downtown is back to its busy self. The retail stores are busy, the restaurants and breweries (local Idaho beer) , wine bars (from local SW Idaho grown grapes) and coffee houses are packed and the vibrancy is back on the city sidewalks and streets with people walking around, on scooters, bikes and the traveling beer bike pubs.

These photos are from today. Yesterday, Saturday, was crazy busy downtown. They say downtown Boise is the most vibrant city center between Portland and Denver.

More downtown photos soon along with construction updates as well as a Then and Now of The Aspen.

Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time? That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains.-Hermann Hesse

City of Parks

I came across this skyline shot from 2013 while looking for more construction photos of The Aspen in my older PB folders.

This was one of those "perfect storms" when Boise is still blazing in Fall color with snow on the mountains

Has the river been cleared yet for floating this summer? I'm planning a trip up soon and will be bringing a large raft, fly fishing gear and a few family members so that they can see and experience a real river.

As time permits, I have been foraging through my Photo Bucket account and locating more photos perfect for "then and now". Stay tuned!

I couldn't find a current photo of the Arboretum at Barber Station apartments, so I will get a shot or two soon!
