Preservation Idaho and other Adventures

The river diversion and construction is going along fine. I hear that the project will be completed this spring. This is an overall view.

The Quinn's Pond side of the dam. East side of the river.

The center of the project.

The Garden City side. West side of the river.

This is an artists' conception of the finished project. It should really be interesting and fun for the kayakers. Quinn's Pond is on the top of this graphic, but not listed.

Then, besides looking at how the Boise River Construction is going, we also attended the Preservation Idaho yearly meeting. Good to keep in touch with these folks trying their best to preserve the historic properties in Boise. They do an awesome job!

Some of the food - (Back L-R) Kiwi Salad, Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce, Bean Salad, Spinach in Puff Paste Rolls and Vegetable Tortilla Rolls.

More of the food. In the pot, Chicken, Shrimp Bruschetta,Quinoa Salad, Egg Salad Rolls and Salami, Cheese and Olive Spears.

Desserts were also available along with a generous supply of donated wines. Only there were no Idaho wines, and they would have been just as good as the ones served. I know that if they had asked some of the Idaho wineries, they would have donated wines for the project. Maybe next year. But it really was a good affair and we look forward to next year.
