As usual, I am slogging through the hot, muggy, Texas summer. Another trip on the horizon though. Back to Idaho, with a side trip to Portland for a mini-family reunion with Hubs people. Then to Chicago for a week, then back home. Anywhere we go, it will be cooler weather than here, thankfully.
I had tons of road trip photos from the May trip, but never got around to posting them. Most of them were shot from the cab of the Penske truck with the cell phone I had to buy the day before we left, because mine broke. So, although some of them were interesting, none of them were spectacular! We spent a night in Amarillo on the way, just so we could go see the much famed Cadillac Ranch. Out in the middle of a field. At least we can say we saw it. LOL
We stopped at several other roadside attractions along the way. We actually took an extra day on this trip, just for that reason. We stopped to see a place I had never been to in all my years of growing up in Idaho. The town of Twin Falls, with the lovely Shoshone Falls Park. Very beautiful, even though we were told the water was at it's very lowest in years because they had not had enough snow or rain last winter. Most times the water spray reaches the observation deck, which is in the bottom left corner of the photo, right under the rainbow.
Nothing much else to show, except...look at this beautiful plant growing in one of my neighbors yards. It is Agave, also known as century plant. This is the first year it has bloomed. It is done now, and the base is dying out and the stalk is leaning towards their doorway, getting ready to fall.
