Boise, Idaho, Jon Sullivan, August, 2003
"...If you pushed me up against a wall as
to my favorite spot, I would probably answer the Rocky Mountains of the
West, around Idaho. There's something about coming around a corner and
seeing a meadow full of wildflowers."
-- Charles Kurault, CBS journalist and host of "Sunday Morning."
