Mother Nature is playing tricks this week with 100% chance of precipitation all this week here in Boise, Idaho. Which means no hikes since the trails will be wet and fragile. I am completely okay with that. I can get things done that I have been putting off. Like cleaning my house. Starting a new... Continue Reading →
Road Trip July 2021
