High School Football Practice

Folks are Boise State University Bronco football crazed this time of year, but there are a lot of good high school teams, too. Here's a shot of a Timberline High School team practice.

Bringing in the Spuds

The dirt is flying as potatoes are harvested this week.

After School Adventures

Pretty cool that there are many places to do this after school, or work, in Boise. These kiddos were trying their luck at Parkcenter Pond.

Mute Swan

One of the year-round residents at the pond in the Cloverdale Cemetery.

Near-Sighted Interpretation

Not very reassuring even when you CAN see the fine print on this parking lot sign.

Too Soon?

Yesterday, Boise set a new record high temperature for the day: 101 degrees. Hard to believe that snow season isn't too far away.

Sunset Near Lucky Peak Reservoir

Have a weekend full of adventures!

Smoker Friendly - Not Grammar Friendly

I won't edit it, because no one really appreciates a grammar granny. Hope your weekend is fabulous.

Potato Plants Looking Dead - that's a Good Thing

Potatoes are harvested after the vines die. Some vines die naturally, and some are sprayed with a desiccant to speed things along.

How Many VHS Tapes Do You Still Own?

This one was abandoned on a shopping center bench. "America the Beautiful."

Sign of "Encouragement?"

Actually, yesterday was a good day :)

Full-Service Taxi?

Don't overlook the crocodiles and nun on the hood.

Ice Cream Tricycle

This young man was cruising the bike lanes near sidewalks looking for customers.

Sturdy Construction

A building for a business. Waiting for clues as to what it will be.

Guess What?

Do you know?

Boise River

We're so lucky to have a river running through town, one that has biking/walking trails on both sides for miles and miles.

Bike Rack Improvisation

Bikes chained to an old fence and trees along the Boise River. These folks were attending Art in the Park.

"Portable" Art

A creative cover for portable toilets at Art in the Park.

Flute Evangelism

Meanderings on the flute at Art in the Park. The sign on her backpack encouraged people to look to the Lord.

Tribute

Rusted Bike

A fixer-upper, for sure.

Smoky Sun

Strange sun this morning in Boise. We can hardly see our mountains because of smoke from wildfires.

J.A.G. - Stands For???

I only learned this year what J.A.G. abbreviates. Wanna guess? This sign is in the foothills.

Superhero Supplies

Available at the Reuseum, if you need it.

Harvest Traffic

How was your commute this morning?

September Sunrise

Good morning! I hope you have a fabulous day.

Balloons Over Boise

The Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic started Wednesday. About 40 balloons have been launching each morning, and there was a competition yesterday where they attempted to drop a marker on a target.

The wind decided otherwise, and all the balloons quickly left Ann Morrison Park.

Lucky Peak Reservoir

Boating, skiing, tubing, sailing, fishing, camping - all at Lucky Peak Reservoir, mere minutes from Boise.

These guys are wake-boarding.

Crossing Guard

Creating safe passage for kiddos across a busy road. Most schools are back in session. The rest will start after Labor Day.

Perspective: Keeping an Eye on Things

A guard kitty watching the world go by in West Boise. This month's CityDailyPhoto.com theme day is "Perspective." See interpretations from around the world by clicking here.
