Boise Idaho

27 July 2018

Today I drove through Washington, Oregon and Idaho to stop in Boise on the way to Colorado (which will be my 50th USA State).

When last in Boise a month ago, Minerva Jayne, Idaho’s Queen of drag, invited me to a comedy show at Liquid Laughs Comedy Club starring Shawn Pelofsky. Shawn had the place in stitches. My face hurt from laughing so much. She is so clever at working the room. I enjoyed the show so much I plan on going again tomorrow night.

Boise has a really good vibe and lovely warm weather this time of year. The capital of Idaho also boasts the largest Basque community in the USA where I found some excellent paella in the Basque Block. This plaza area overflows with people till the early hours of the morning.

“The Balcony” is the gay nightclub of Idaho which attracts a diverse clientele and I enjoyed a dance after Shawn’s show.

Green Belt Idaho

28 June 2018

The Airbnb I am in Meridian Idaho is so comfortable I took it easy today. I went for a walk with my host, Denni, along the Green Belt of the Boise River.

We should have these bike tools and pump along our bike paths in Sydney.

I then went back to the Airbnb and lazed around the pool before going into downtown Boise for a last drink at The Balcony as I make my way to Portland tomorrow.
