The hotel is near Boise, Idaho. As I walked past the window in our room one night this was my view. For more great reflections visit James at Weekend Reflections.
that reflection was almost to tall to fit in your photo, but you Did It. great shot. I love the name, The Sandman... I get it... ha ha a place for the Sandman to visit.
Well that certainly evoked memories of past "car trip" vacations. Great reflection photo Judy. Hope you have a great time on your trip and have a great weekend! [We have the high winds warning for Sat and Sun both-ARGHHH!!!]

What's That?
I don't know but . . .
did you see that?
When you are describing,
A shape, or sound, or tint;
Don't state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to
look at all things,
With a sort of mental squint.
-Lewis Carroll

Grew up in a small Georgia town with a desire to see some of the places I had read about and many I had not. I moved to Alaska and lived there for about ten years. My jobs took me to many parts of the state including Barrow, Nome, Kodiak Island and many more. I have also lived in California, Oregon and now Washington state.
Let this be the story of the journey so far.
The past is a nice place to visit, but I don't want to live there.
The past is a fun place to visit, but today is where I am now.
The past is a interesting place to visit, But tomorrow will bring new memories.

It Couldn't Be Done
Somebody said that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That "maybe it couldn’t," but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!
Somebody scoffed: "Oh, you’ll never do that; At least no one ever has done it;" But he took off his coat and he took off his hat And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin, Without any doubting or quiddit, He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done, There are thousands to prophesy failure, There are thousands to point out to you one by one, The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin, Just take off your coat and go to it; Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing That "cannot be done," and you’ll do it.

My Fairy
My fairy is called Tangle Saturnshimmer
She is a trouble maker.
She lives at the bottom of tangled gardens and in hedgerows.
She is only seen when the first flowers begin to blossom.
She wears tangled dresses of multicoloured petals. She has delicate pale pink wings like a cicada.
My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
It's better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There's more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.

Great reflections on the calm waters of the pool.

How cool is this!! Nice reflection with the long support poles, right down to the water.
That's an awesome reflection, Judy!
Great pic!
I took some reflection pictures yesterday, thinking of you. This one shows how still the air must have been when you took it.
that reflection was almost to tall to fit in your photo, but you Did It. great shot. I love the name, The Sandman... I get it... ha ha a place for the Sandman to visit.

What a great find! I bet I would not have seen that one. But the name of the place cracks me up!
...and you had your camera with you! Aren't you glad?!
Great reflection! Isn't it great to have your camera at moments like these? Love the name of the motel!! Have a great weekend!

I'm glad you weren't sleeping (this being Mr Sandman's place) because it's a magnificent shot.
Nice reflection in the evening light and lovely colors too.
wow it's like some movie scenery, just wonderful!
Well done!

Beautiful reflection, Judy...
Did you go through Nampa, Idaho? I have a good friend my hometown who lives there.
Hugs,

Excellent reflection. I like it a lot. I should get out more after the sunset. :)
very cool!
like a scene from a movie shot in Vegas
You certainly have a good idea for great photos. Always something interesting to see here on your blog. Gail
This certainly "suits" very well in that pool - hopefully the rooms were just as nice. Please have a wonderful weekend.

What a striking reflection! Love it!
I would not have been able to resist that either. Nice shot!
Every of your photos with reflections are stunning, Judy.
Love these, as always do.

Stillness. Beautiful!
What a great neon reflection! I love the hint of sunset in the background - beautiful!
The name of the motel made me laugh!
Very nice reflection! I never have thought of that, but it is as clear as can be.
