Clean, simple, minimal.

Do-Over #7

#77 Door
Entrance to the Idaho Black History Museum, a former church. Unfortunately for me it was closed.

#100 Fasteners

An antique door knob and lock keep this door fastened.
Looks like the lock has been updated. Good thing.

#161 Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny

Itsy-teeny rain drops grace the petals and leaves of this beautiful rose.
So elegant.
The downside of walking in a rose garden in the rain is, well, you get wet. The upside is you have the garden all to yourself! So much beauty, so little time.

#269 Slick

A steady rain made all the streets slick but this was the most interesting street.
The six hundred block of Grove Street in Boise, Idaho is still the Basque Center - lots of history and several great restaurants! This symbol is everywhere. The four points represent fire, water, wind and earth.

#333 Together

No matter the weather, these children play marbles together. I wish girls weren't usually portrayed as spectators/cheerleaders.
Sorry, no indication as to the artist's identity. The sculpture is located in the Grove Plaza, Boise, Idaho.

#170 Lightness

The eight stained glass panels were rescued from the former building and "repurposed" to light the narthex (foyer) of the new church.
