Sun Valley: The Non-Conference Part

Bruce had a Healthcare Administration conference in Sun Valley this past week, so, seeing this as a perfect excuse for a mini-vacation, I took off work for a couple days, and I went with him on his trip!

So we sent the pup to the kennel for a few days, and on Sunday, we started making our way up toward Sun Valley.  We got to see the early morning sunrise, traversed through Craters of the Moon, and saw vast expanses of nothingness, until suddenly, we found ourselves in a beautiful valley with lush green grass, colorful trees, and towering hillsides.  We knew we had to be getting close.

And sure enough, within 20 minutes, we were in Sun Valley.  That area is completely gorgeous, and we both decided that when we are rich and famous (yeah, right!), we are totally going to have a vacation home in the area.

Bruce spent the bulk of the next 2 days in meetings and conferences, which gave me all sorts of time to explore the area on my own.

I went for a few walks in the wooded areas in Ketchum, wandered through the Sawtooth National Forest, drove into Hailey, went to the Sawtooth Botanical Gardens, took pictures, and enjoyed being away from work for a few days.

Here are some pictures of the beautiful things we saw while there!
