Quick Trip to Boise!

Happy Humpy Day everyone!

A couple of weeks ago, I took a quick work trip to Boise, Idaho. I will be honest with you – before this work trip, I had never been to Boise, nor did I have any desire to go to Boise. However, I will say I was pleasantly surprised with what (very little) I was able to see and experience outside working hours.
