Friendly Friday Photo Challenge: Revisiting an old place

No, it’s not Friday. Been busy getting used to my new job and my moods have been fluctuating so trying to ride all the weird and crazy waves and not lose my balance. I was surprised to see that this would be my first post for the month of May. I guess I really have been busy….

…anyway, this week’s theme from Something to Ponder About is “Something New/Something Different. Within the description was this: It might be something from your past that you have suddenly had the opportunity to revisit.

Gone camping – Somewhere in Idaho – JoAnn Ryan

Lost River basin – Idaho – JoAnn Ryan

I’m originally from the state of Idaho. I’ve long had a love/hate relationship with where I’m from and spent several years trying to run as far away from it as possible. You can’t ever really run away from where your from though. On my last few visits I’ve been renewing my love of my home state. Been on some camping trips and have revisited places I never fully paid attention to or fully appreciated before.

Included here are just a few of my photo highlights, which includes two shots of the magnificent Snake River, three of a camping trip near the Stanley-Challis forest area in the Lost River basin and two additional photos of the awesome St. Anthony sands dunes.
