WARM SPRINGS CHAPTER TWO...

Seriously irresistible. Just... the trees... the way the light touches down and gives everything a soft kiss. Sigh.


The gates and pathways and nooks and crannies were just as spellbinding as the homes.


Some of the homes had long, stretch driveways adding to the grandeur of it all.


Cottage charm.


Luscious, ruffled roses. Can't you just smell 'em?


Walking with Cindy along Warm Springs was so much fun!
It made me realize what a blessing it is to live here in Boise, Idaho.
There is so much to see, do, and enjoy right in our "own backyard".





This house reminded me of Hansel and Gretel.
A beautiful Gingerbread House!
True Art !
Nature is a beautiful experience..nothing matches it.

ALL AROUND BOISE



Taking advantage of a crisp summer morning, Cindy and I enjoyed a beautiful photo shoot in one of Boise's Historical Districts. Warm Springs is an avenue made up of some amazing homes, which have been around since the late 1800's. Very majestic, and landscaping awesome, trees dating back a few hundred years. The ownership of these homes have maintained most of the history, and the atmosphere invites us all to appreciate this boulevard.




A bit of chill in the morning air, didn't speed our steps. So much to take in, goose-bumps can wait.


Would love to see the inside!

What a beautiful morning doing a stroll by in one of Boise's lovely historic neighborhoods. Chalk full of stately homes & lavish landscaping.




We set out early, my blog partner & I, to catch that magic morning light and proceeded to ooh & awe over every curb, flora, tree, gate and dreamy home. You'll see why....




What a lovely welcome!

How does your garden grow?


Wildly now! But in the beginning...





Espalier apple tree!



Broccoli Beauty


In hopes that sweet peas will soon grow there!


Coming along...




Some of the bounty...



..and Shazam! It's like a jungle out there now.


Peach tree on the right.



TA-DA! I love sweet peas!


'licious maters!


Check out those monster sunflowers! Mercy!


Prolific gardening or run amok?


ONIONS!




Trying to find my basil in all this foliage....I think I see it! This was a long post. Did I mention I like taking pictures? Well. I do.
