Idaho

Today I drove across lower Idaho.


First I stopped at the Boise library to buy some audio books from the Friends of the Library bookstore. Then I took some pictures in rural Idaho.



I stopped for a few hours at CRATERS OF THE MOON NATIONAL MONUMENT. It's a lava field created by volcanic eruptions over 2000 years ago. It doesn't actually look like the moon, but it was named a long time ago, before anyone thought we'd actually get to the moon and take closeup photos of actual craters of the moon. At the Idaho Craters of the moon, we have stuff like lichens, bushes, trees and wild flowers. You won't see things like that on the actual moon.
