One thing Boise boasts is some pretty spectacular parks. On Sunday we got a break in the weather so we
headed out for some fresh air and exercise to Kathryn Albertson Park. It is a wildlife preserve with winding paths
and plenty to see and experience. While
there we were treated to dozens of varieties of birds, ducks, geese, fish,
water turtles, deer and even a couple of snakes. I totally could have done without the snakes.

Look turkeys! Just kidding. |
|
The water is a little murky from all the rain we've been having. |
|
See the deer? |
|
Look at the baby! |
|
It was a gorgeous day. |

World's largest Ponderosa pine |
|
Water turtles. |
|
12 babies! |
|
And then we met up with the large goose family again as we were leaving. |
Just as we were wrapping it up the raindrops began to fall once again. Perfect timing.
I can't tell you how nice it was to get outdoors and just wander
for awhile. Lots of fresh air. The views were spectacular
and it is so much fun to get to commune with nature a little bit. Those goslings are so stinking cute too.
Absolutely beautiful! Those little goslings are adorable as can be! Sounds perfect except the snakes. I absolutely hate them. We found another one in the yard today and the husband ran it off into the woods since it wasn't poisonous.
