All about Boise, Idaho

First Snow in Boise Photos!

I can’t believe it- Andrea said the weatherman’s forecast called for snow. What? Californians only see snow after they’ve driven 3 hours and are about to pay $60 to go skiing.

The trees looked like flocked Christmas trees, snow covered EVERYTHING and my truck had 3 inches of snow on the top. There I was, plugging away a 12-hour shift and I realize the rain outside is floating… sideways… and I realized it was snow. I think it snowed on and off for several hours- covering the roofs of nearby buildings.

Reviewing the above paragraph, I realize I wrote the word Snow 6 times. That is a 6-to-5 snow to sentence ratio.

Parade: Boise Football Homecoming

Video of a Boise State University Parade

Each year BSU has a homecoming parade. This was fun to watch, even though I haven’t yet been to a game. The parade consisted mostly of local Boise High Schools and their bands. I think my favorite float was a massive flatbed truck with two CAT digging machines on the back. The two college operators would move the digging scoops over the crowds. Go agriculture!
