There’s a light…

While Boise has shivered for the past week under an icy fog, the mountains just above town, invisible from below, obscured by fog, have been basking under warm sunshine, clear skies and clean, fresh air. Up at Bogus Basin ski area over the weekend, it was like a different world. As lawmakers start into their second week of coping with tough challenges, celebrate Martin Luther King Jr./Idaho Human Rights Day today, and the nation looks ahead to a historic presidential inauguration tomorrow, it’s nice to know that there really is a light up there, even when we’re huddled down here in the dark and cold.
