Only a month ago, we had a couple of days in Boise, Idaho, with no plans. So we decided to head up to McCall to see the resort we’d heard so much about. On the morning of our departure, however, Mother Nature showered Boise with snow, and there were times when we questioned the sanity of traveling north along Idaho Hwy. 55 with almost no one in sight.
The rewards, however, of seeing forests, farms, and streams covered with snow far outweighed our initial question of What are we thinking — traveling to McCall in a state we hardly know and in a car we’d only rented the day before?
A few of the abandoned structures — aging, dilapidated, empty — reassured us that we had done the right thing. Where else and when else would we see such a contrast of abandoned buildings with fresh, untouched snow?
