Made it up Sunday morning for a trek into to Boise Foothills on the way to Bogus Basin to see "Stack Rock." What a site.....almost looked like something out of Lord of the Rings.

23 May 2008 Rooster Tail at Lucky Peak
Biking along the Boise River, I sea a stream of traffic and recalled that this is "Rooster Tail" weekend. Spring Run off fills luck peak reservoir, and the BLM allows a show of spray from the bottom of the reservoir. A worthy show with many spectators. The sting of the cool spray was easily numbed by a detour to the new Lucky13 on the way home to south-east Boise.

2008 May 10 Frank Sinatra Remembered
Saturday was a chance to catch up with friends on the front patio....and to pause at the 10 year mark since passing of Frank Sinatra, May 1998. There was supposed to be some talk of upcoming outdoor outings too, but with all the banter about Frank, no one quite got to the logistics. There were some good stories, such as being on the Vegas strip when the lights were dimmed as a not to Frank. Or my Dad's story about his Dad's experience back in '44, helping to arrange a visit by Sinatra to East Base during a WWII tour of military bases. No doubt that Frank was the Chairman, when he passed I wondered who now? I recall back in May '98, being on the way to Utah for the George Strait Music Festival, and a vendor outside the venue was selling t-shirt saying "George Strait, the new Chairman of the Board"---certainly I agreed.
