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
Killer set of pictures Sawtooth! Fascinating to observe how another person see's the same place I also view every day.
I live in the West End. Really hoping as Idaho St picks up Hale's townhomes and The Watercooler apts go in that we'll have more reason to enjoy the skyline looking toward the east which isn't so often pictured. Gardner's Watercooler would've really changed that view at least from street level.
Thanks for sharing this wide ranging selection of your pictures!
Beautiful tour and pictures, as usual, Sawtooth! Thanks for sharing.
I love Boise and the landscapes around it. You live in a very nice city inside a very nice state.
By the way, how is being the heat wave you´re suffering all these days? I see you´ve exceeded highest of 104ºF a day after the other. I hope you stay cool away the heat.
This one especially jumped out - excellent framing.
What are the construction cranes for? Anything tall going up?
Thanks Shawn. btw I am Sean
The crane by the US Bank tower is for the City Center Plaza, a new office/retail building and convention center expansion and an underground multi-modal/bus center to be called the Main Street Station. http://gardnercompany.net/portfolio-.../#leasing-info

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.
Thanks Danny.
The heat wave hit fast and it is supposed to cool down later this next week. The temps do cool down around sunset and the summer nights are great.
There is a lot of water in Boise so people float or swim in the river or recreate at the whitewater park and the many ponds around town to stay cool during the heat. Or hang out at home with the AC cranked.
Last weekend I headed up to the Sawtooth's with a few friends to cool off at the lakes. The mountains and lakes are another place people from Boise go to in order to get out of the heat wave in the valley.
Here are some photos from last weekend, of course.
Grandjean, Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway
A small section of the Sawtooth Mountains from the highway.
This range is 30 miles long and up to 15 miles wide and most of it is in classified wilderness and can only be accessed by foot.
