Summer Trip No. 1- Boise Idaho


Okay, to kick off the summer, I embarked on a voyage to the far off land of Boise, Idaho. En route, I took the new header/title picture/jigger deal you see as you enter my newly titled blog. I also snapped a few pics of stuff I saw, like this window of wonder seen above. The hotel was called "Modern." No obnoxious 'the's to get in the way here, just "MODERN." I digress. Anyway the next few pics are random smidgens and snapshots of the trip. Exciting huh?

My traveling companion and sidekick, also known as my dad, looking like a boss before a day of location scouting.


Your lovable host, hero and fellow blogga looking even more like a boss in his aviators, also before a day of scouting locations

I had time to play with some perspective shots, so I did. This is one of the modern tables at Modern

A tree in the courtyard. Unfortunately this particular tree isn't bearing plastic fruit hung from fishing line.

My room was up there!

Not actually my room, but it was one of our locations. Pretty sweet

And here's me looking like a G on the bleachers at the Boise State football field

Other Highlights of my Voyage to Boise

> Throwing a frisbee from the top of Boise State Football Stadium
>Playing frisbee on the blue turf of the Boise State Football Field
>Ripping a gaping hole in my shorts while playing frisbee on the Boise State Football Field
>Breaking my camera on the FIRST DAY (not actually a highlight but it happened)
>eating a 'Free range, grass fed, hand ground beef hamburger.' Did I mention the place was a bit yuppie?
>Romping around rooms cleaner than operating rooms, rooms full of equipment worth millions of dollars, playing with lasers more expensive than said equipment, and doing all of this no questions asked
>Being an extra (if this puppy ever airs, I'm walking through a shot somewhere by the Student Union Building)
>Visiting a legit record shop, and just about buying four new vinyl albums for my collection
>Eating at Mollie's for breakfast

>But not eating at Mollie's for lunch
