Boise Idaho Temple Photos

My History: The Boise Idaho Temple

My first visit to the Boise Idaho Temple was back in the early days, with my earliest Camera. This was before I knew I would be traveling so much for work and enjoyment. In these early days, I assumed I would be lucky to get one visit to each temple, and places like Montana felt far-flung.

I have been able to visit Boise much more than I would have imagined early on.

My favorite Mission Companion, his wife, and myself were doing a quick trip into Idaho. we had planned to visit Idaho Falls, do a session, then go to Boise and do a session. Unfortunately, we planned poorly and were 15 minutes to late for the session in Boise.

Part of the First Road Trip my wife and I ever took together. Despite the absolute biting cold we had encountered the day before, the weather here was not that bad.

Another stop on another epic Temple trip. This was a quick stop over, mainly to be able to say we stopped there.

We came up just for the Open House. 5+ hours of drive time, with two kids in the car, one of them under two years in age. Yeah, we can be kinda nuts about these trips.

We had come up for the Open House of the newly remodeled temple, and had stayed the night at an old rundown motel nearby. These photos were taken the morning of our tour of the temple, while we were waiting for our session of the open house to begin.

After the open house we took the opportunity to take photos around the temple again. I took the opportunity to photograph as many small details as I could, with the hope that they would help me to build an updated model of the remodeled temple.
