I took a walk along the Greenbelt today, and call me crazy, but I would be willing to skip this middle-ground season of Spring and move right to Summer. Let's get on the water.
If you or your family is like mine, one of the things you love about living in the Treasure Valley is the chance to float the Boise River. Now, we could get even more room to do it.
Just a few months ago, the potential for flooding along the Boise Greenbelt was likely and damage along the path had closed it. Now, repair on the final sections is about to begin.
We have talked a lot about the end of the shortest official Boise River Float Season in history, but Ada County has announced they are very pleased with the results.
It was the shortest float season in history. Would it have been a smarter idea to just call it for the season, and come back next year stronger and better than ever on the Boise River?
We were warned ahead of time, but it still seems like this year's Boise River floating season came and went too quickly. Today was the final day of the official 2017 season.
Now that it's Sunday night, I've got the laundry going, dishwasher running, and I'm paying bills and doing some work to get ready for the week. Looking back, what a great weekend!
I moved to the Treasure Valley just over three years ago, and quickly discovered why so many people loved floating the river. It's beautiful, relaxing, and one of the best parts of Boise.
A very scary situation for three teenage girls on inflatable rafts in the Boise River thankfully ended well. All three girls were knocked off of their rafts after they got snagged on some trees.
They ended up clinging to branches in the water and screamed for help...
