October 8 - Boise, Idaho

We left Pendleton and headed for Idaho.  We stopped just outside Pendleton at an overlook.  Even though it is quite desolate, the view was spectacular.


















Just across the border into Idaho there is a rest stop above the Snake River.  Again, the view was quite impressive.  The weather continued to be overcast, although we haven't had any more rain.

We arrived in Boise early enough in the day to be able to do some walking.  We found Kathryn Albertson Park, a lovely 43 acre wildlife sanctuary.  We were able to add a few birds to our list, but nothing exciting.
Things are definitely looking fall-like.

In the evening we went into downtown Boise for dinner.  We had a wonderful walk downtown.  We really fell in love with Boise.  It's a small city, very clean and lovely.  It's a college town (Boise State) as well as the state capitol.  All in a very manageable size.
