Rocky mountains and famous potatoes

We spent Christmas at home in Fort Collins and saved our travel for the New Year. Yesterday we flew from Denver to Boise to visit my Mom and stepfather. The views on this route can be spectacular when the sky is clear, and it was. Waypoints on the flight: Berthoud Pass; Dinosaur National Monument; Evanston, Wyoming; Cache Valley and Logan, UT; Twin Falls, ID; and finally, Boise.

The Wasatch and Wellsville Ranges and Logan, Utah

There is almost no snow on the ground in Boise, but it's cold. Not too cold to run, however, and I had a good one along the river today. Tomorrow I'm going to do a longer run up in the hills above downtown.
