    Cool thanks for the feedback! We have emissions testing here on a 2yr cycle, so I'm all good with that. Hotter summers kind of sucks, but at least you guys don't have the brutal humidity we have to deal with there. I applied to the job today, let's see what happens!

    Hey Idahoans! Just moved from Houston to Pocatello, and so stoked to be back near mountains. Already made it up to Frank Church Wilderness for some field work (geology PhD student), and can't wait for more. Idaho's an amazing and under-appreciated state (by those who have never been)

    didn't know what to expect of idaho, while I havent had the chance to explore outside of boise (thanks big brother watching the work vehicle) it seems pretty nice up here. definitely want to get up on my own and explore further north.

    A lifetime ago I grew up in in North Chicago near Great lakes Naval Base. Feel free to message me with whatever questions you may have. It was terrible for me to grow up in a place that seemed foreign to me. We live in Emmett now (outside of Boise) and it has been a great change.

    If you are planning to live in Boise/Ada County you will need to pass emissions testing. As for state inspections I am not sure I would recommend refering to Idaho.gov for answers. Good luck.

    Sweet. Definitely going on our list! Ryan can't hike too much until he gets his back fixed but there is always next year.

    @FrostyEldin if you talk to keltic Angel again soon, let her know that if she can get away, I'm going to be setting the date for INW meet and greet. If it helps her out, I do have a travel trailer she can stay in as well (in case she needs something to convince her parents). Trailer does have a locking door, and she can have both keys inside with her. Also, if it helps her communicate directly with me, Facebook.com/zachwt
    Thanks

    What's up kids? I'm currently in Sandpoint, eventually heading south to run the Magruder if anyone is interested.

    Anything fun or exciting to do around these parts, or people in the area? I'll likely head to CDA shortly to do a bit of a project in the Home Depot parking lot. Need to make my indel b fridge platform fit a Dometic that's on the way.
