After breakfast I took a short bike ride to Boise State University. I wanted to see the "Smurf Turf", the famous blue football field at the stadium. BSU is a large university on the opposite side of the river across from downtown. The large stadium is bowled but I found an unattended open gate and somehow sneaked on to the end zone turf. I had just snapped a couple of photos before being approached by someone from the football staff and being asked to cease and desist. Oh well, mission accomplished.
Speaking of accomplishments, I also got laundry done (no small feat in a four story hotel with exactly one guest washing machine), cleaned my bike, bought and changed the cleats on my cycling shoes, and updated the blog. I spent the afternoon inside the hotel as temps approached 100 degrees again.
