Idaho Landscapes

I'll gladly admit that I can be somewhat picture happy at times. This was definately one of them. I couldn't help but snap some shots as I drove to and from Idaho, mostly while driving too. I can't believe how amazing those clouds are! "This is a piece too fair, to be the child of Chance, and not of Care. No atoms casually together hurl'd, Could e'er produce so beautiful a world." -John Dryden



Why, who makes much of a miracle?
As to me I know nothing else but miracles,
Whether I walk the streets of Manhattan,
Or dart my sight over the roofs of houses toward the sky,
Or wade with naked feet along the beach just in the edge of the water,
Or stand under the trees in the woods,...
Or look at strangers opposite me riding in the car,
Or watch honey-bees busy around the hive of a summer forenoon,
Or animals feeding in the fields,
Or birds, or the wonderfulness of insects in the air,
Of the wonderfulness of the sundown, or of stars shining so quiet and bright,
Or the exquisite delicate thin curve of the new moon in spring;
These with the rest, one and all, to me are miracles,
The whole referring, yet each distinct in its place.
To me every hour of light and dark is a miracle,
Every cubic inch of space is a miracle,
Every square yard of the surface of the earth is spread with the same,
Every foot of the interior swarms with the same.
- Walt Whitman
