Yesterday my hubby and I decided to take a trip from the Treasure Valley to the Magic Valley. Our destination was the 1000 springs scenic byway in Hagerman and Buhl Idaho....

This is a beautiful ride where the river goes into the lava beds and out via 1000's of both cold water and hot water springs. The weather was very windy but crisp and clear.
Our first stop was the Miracle Hot Springs in Buhl Idaho. We had a nice relaxing soak in the pools. After about an hour we were getting over heated so we went to see there alligators. There really was a 6 or 7 foot alligator in a hot pool....He only had his eyes above water...Perhaps our 40 degree day didn't agree with him.

By then we were a bit hungry and we drove into Buhl...We had lunch at Its That Place, a BBQ place where the Boise State Broncos game was on. We shared a brisket dinner and watched the third quarter.
I then check my phone and found that the destination, Niagara Springs State Park. It was a long drive in through a canyon. It was beautiful.. We saw a porcupine, a blue heron in flight and some lovely springs.....




We went back for another soak in the hot springs.....Then a delicious dinner at the Snake River Grill in Hagerman.
This was a fantastic day spent in the Magic Valley of Idaho. Boise is just 2 hours from this and many other beautiful spots in Idaho.
This real estate agent feels refreshed and ready to tackle the world...
