alright, i left Portland,OR earlier today and headed for Boise,ID ..
i googled the maps and directions for it .. sounded pretty simple ... about a 500+ miles drive, should take about 6 hrs ... well it actually took me around 7 and 1/2 hrs to get to Boise,
i guess the tough part of the drive were driving through the desert (which was MOST of it) and drive upwards on mountain passes ... mountain passes were way cool, but my car is not made for mountain climbing so that kinda slows me down a little.
i was amazed and amazed again by the nature today ... the mountains in Eastern Oregon and Western Idaho were great ... they amazed me, somehow after living in the concrete forrest for a while we kinda forget how great and creative our God is. He puts mountains, sand dunes, rivers, canyon and lakes all together to form a great scenery ... great art work of His. As i drove into Boise, the back drop of the city is one of the mountains, and that looked great :o) ... anyways ...
i also saw some other cool stuff ... like "dry lighting" ... lighting striking the ground in the desert where it wasn't raining ... "half-sized" rain bow .. where the rain bow did not go across the sky but was reflected off one of the "cylinder shaped" clouds (kinda like the one God used to lead Israel outta Egypt .. hehe .. " anyways ...
those are my adventures today ...
keep on be amazed by God ...
keep on praising Him because He is the Beautiful One ...
:o)
... what's next ...
Salt Lake City will be my next destination,
i'll take a tour of the temple of mormon and see what they really think about Christ ...
then i'm off to Cheyenne,WY .. Yeeeeeehaw ... absolutely western cow-town that i can't miss ..
i'll make a stop in Philmont (righ?) NM to visit Stephanie then to Alburquequer,NM for the night before heading to Amarillo,TX
from there it's the home-stretch drive home to College Station,TX
:o)
give thanks to HIM , daily.
~love y'all.
