Some little pink peeks from our quick visit to Boise, Idaho. We loved this town and it's magnificent State Capitol building (undergoing a huge rehab so we couldn't tour inside) designed after The Capitol in Washington, D.C.

The locals were friendly - an ex-congressman stopped to chat and shared some history with us.
Sidewalk sign for the fabulous French bakery/restaurant, La Vie en Rose, where we ate the best pastries ever.
Starbucks was in a historic building with a pink turret.
The palest pink bike waiting for a rider.
Boise's beautiful (aren't they all) Anthropologie store displaying the prettiest deep rosy pink sweater.
Profusion of pink petunias at the famous Basque restaurant Leku Ona.
Boise, Idaho, looked like a really nice place to live.

Ahhhh, sweet chick, I see you were in my neck of the woods recently: the western U.S. and particularly California and Boise! Yep, a friendly lot out here in Idaho.

ReplyDeleteHappy PS and enjoy your weekend.
What a unique Starbucks with the pink turret! I love turrets!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday!
I hate to be a broken record, but it's cold and gloomy here today and it rained all day yesterday! Hoping that I can get outside a bit to check out my gardens☺ Pink Saturday is bringing a little much needed and very welcome color into my home today. Thanks so much for participating. It's always so nice to visit your blog and see what's going on.
ReplyDeleteDidn't know Idaho would be so much fun!
Hope your weekend is filled with sunshine and everyone you l♥ve. I'm hoping mine will be dry☺
I love all the pinks you chose to share with us, but that turret at Starbucks is most unusual. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip Boise. I hope you are having a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteI'm beginning to appreciate pink more and more, with all these Pink posts I see on the blogs. It was never a favorite color before...
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious pink bicycle... the perfect shade. I'd like to have it, if only to lean against the fence.
ReplyDelete(p.s. I think you'd look adorable in a pink hat)
Pleasant weekend :-)

I have friends in Boise ... and yes, it is a great place to live. On my migration West I got so thoroughly lost in Boise I thought I would never make it to Bend ... a mere four+ hours away! I had to call those friends to help me navigate out.
ReplyDeleteSuper cool pinks!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Lisa
Hello dear Mary, yes, I have a full mountain view while lounging on the hammock. This deck is below the upper deck I have shown in the past. We have not put anything down there except the hammock. I do have plans though, but not this year. Between the new rose beds we will have some wide steps installed to get to the lily garden and the bird bath and bench. A work in progress.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your post today about Boise, Idaho. You and Jasmin look like you are having a fine time. The pink turret is pretty neat on that building. It really stands out.
We are looking forward to Oct. as well. I hope you are doing as well as can be Mary.
Love and hugs, Jeanne
Love the capitol building! Happy Pink Saturday!
ReplyDeleteIt is a Pink World after all. Enjoyed your cyber tour of Boise ID.

You have made me want to visit Boise Idaho. Thank you for the great pictures Looks like you had a great time.Happy pinks! Meg
ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteYou are right!! Where have I been?? I think that the few times I could sit down and blog over the past 3 weeks, I must have just missed you on my blogroll. I would never miss one of your posts!!
So I started off in Utah, at Bear Lake, and here I am!!
I don't suppose you care to go back to old posts for my comments, but if you do, check the times because I think I have been following you around for the better part of an hour!!
Boise was one of my favorite stops on your trip. The French restaurant and brioche was the clincher!!
Now I need to rest my eyes. I am really glad you are home! ;-)
xoxo

I enjoyed my tour of Boise very much. The French bakery/restaurant, La Vie en Rose, sounds like a wonderful place for lunch. Thank you for sharing all of your interesting pinks today. Have a great weekend. Vicki
ReplyDeleteI love seeing places that people visit. Happy Pink Saturday.

Mary, I love that you shared these pink views of Boise. And, I especially loved seeing you and Jasmin.
ReplyDeleteThe turret on that building is amazing. And, those petunias in that gorgeous shade of pink are fantastic.
Is the market you go to at North Hills? My sister-in-law goes there.
How come my petunias don't look like that? and I loved the Starbucks....shoot...I loved all your pink Saturday photos. Happy Pink Saturday ~ Lynn
