July 10, 2018 by Ariane ColenbranderLeave a Comment

Currently the fastest-growing city in the US, downtown Boise also happens to be easily walkable, laid out in a grid with Grove Plaza at its heart and Julia Davis Park at its southern edge.

July 6, 2018 by DaveLeave a Comment

Lake Louise, Alberta – July 2018

July 1, 2018 by Dave3 Comments

Lake Louise is one of the planet's most inspirational natural destinations. The lake changes colors - dramatically so, depending on the time of day, how much light there is and or cloud cover. This glacially fed lake contains the most awe inspiring shades of aquamarines, blues and other colors. The jagged glacier and snow covered mountains are reflected in its waters on clear days.
