Snow in Boise

It finally snowed yesterday in Boise. Last time I saw snow was 4 years ago, same in Boise. How time flies!

I rushed out of house and took some pictures on the early morning, very beautiful but everything was gone in 3 hours... The temperature was over 40F.

I don't know when and where is my next snow.....
















The last one was taken in Micron cafeteria.

Windy day, Big dune!

Greetings from Idaho.

I have been here for one month, and didn't play around this area.
Last weekend, Ethan and I decided to go to big dune!

"Reportedly the tallest single-structured sand dune in North America rises to 470 feet (140 m) high above small lakes. The dunes at Bruneau Dunes State Park are unique in the Western Hemisphere. Other dunes in the Americas form at the edge of a natural basin. The Bruneau dunes form near the center. The basin has acted as a natural trap for over 12,000 years. The dunes may have started with sands from the Bonneville Flood about 15,000 years ago. The prevailing winds blow from the southeast 28 percent of the time and from the northwest 32 percent of the time, keeping the dunes fairly stable. Unlike most dunes, these do not drift far."
