Karen planted a new variety of bulbs in the garden this year, Mediterranean bells (allium siculum), a European and Turkish species of plants. It is native to the regions around the Mediterranean and Black Seas, and grown in other regions as an ornamental and as a culinary herb. (Wikipedia)

On Friday, October 28, 1983, Idaho’s Borah Peak was lifted about a foot by a 6.9 magnitude earthquake. The Lost River Valley floor dropped up to 7.5 feet in places with a 20-mile scarp, seen in the picture below along the base of the Lost River Range. Two elementary school students were killed in Challis.
From 1977 to 1980, we lived in Arco, Idaho, about 50 miles southeast of the spot where the photo was taken.

- The Then photo is usually a randomly selected older photograph from a batch of photos specifically “curated” for Photography Now and Then.
- Each photo in this series is an “original work” – a copyright term – of Michael Goad.
- Reference links were accessed on the date the blog post was published, unless otherwise stated.
- The title convention for Photography Now & Then blog posts evolved early on from one word related to each photo separated by “&” to usually being the first word in the caption description for each photo.
