Grand Junction Colorado to Boise Idaho
6/2
Thursday
Thursday up and at them again, got in a good 1/2 mile ride before storing bike on car. out the door and on the road by 8 am, the area is desolate at best, not a tree in site, lots of rugged plateaus and some small dry brush here and there, almost as if a bomb went off many decades ago and nothing organic has returned as of yet. ran in the a horrendous thunderstorm in Utah on highway 6. stopped salt lake city to visit with a good friend, have some lunch, and let the children play. she had wifi which was a good deal for I was able to fulfill a portrait order before continuing on my journey. arrived at 1 pm and left by 430 pm, but better rested from the break. the ride into Boise was fairly pleasant, there was gentle hills climbing out of Utah and into Idaho, once over there was a definite farming valley with mountains in the far north distance. the sunset was spectacular and worth stopping the car to capture. gas was pretty spendy, $2.27 a gallon, but the attendants were all pleasant so the atmosphere in Mountain Home was very sweet. Boise was good, easy trip in, a wrong turn sent me on a long loop on the freeway to find the motel which is on the south side of the freeway and thus south side of Boise proper.
