Wife & I escaped work for a couple hours this morning for a long photo walk around the #Idaho Botanical #Garden

I think we both shot a couple rolls of 35mm film and I shot some medium format as well. Will develop later tonight.

I only took 2 phone pics, here’s one.

Here's Waldo, the first above ground ground squirrel of the year.

[side note: There's got to be a word as cool as "subterranean" that means the opposite of subterranean, but I don't know what it is. Epiterranean? Superterranean?]

grey sky with varying thickness and sun haloed low center
fenceposts at bottom with one birdhouse at far left (fence is leaning from elk jumping over, which means I need to go check its integrity)

*Idaho Escape feed update*
Tweaking the logic a bit. Lately, words like "beautiful" are appearing in too many political posts without words that would exclude them from the feed

still recommend using the #IdahoEscape hashtag or tags like #art, #photography, #sunset, #pet to get your posts included
