We had a record setting warm February this year, falsely giving us here in Idaho hope for an early Spring. I was considering mowing my backyard before my vacation, my sage was greening up, bulbs around town were peaking from their planters, even some trees were budding out. Not to mess with Mother Nature, but... Continue Reading →
Who would have ever guessed it would take an entirely new, purposeful generation to finally make change in America when it comes to gun violence.

Home Sweet Home. My tiny house in Garden City, a town that is surrounded by Boise. After being gone for a week back East, coming home was pure joy. It always is wonderful to arrive home, to be back again. Today it sank in even more as to that reason. The reason I chose Boise... Continue Reading →
