Although it is beautiful here, we are not sure we would want to raise our family here. Along with a deep history comes years of injustices, injury, and evil. The pangs of slavery and segregation can still be felt here. There is a distrust between races that is insurmountable.
Idaho may be a young state with fairly recent history, but it is a great place for fresh starts. In our experience, it is a well mixed society with little racial tension. That is the kind of place where we want to raise our children.
By the way, we learned a vital lesson yesterday. Never eat Mexican food in a town with minimal Hispanic population. Ugggggh. It was a long night.
The picture of Jost is at the waterfront here in Beaufort. Kade is holding both here doll from Charleston and her new pink pig. She named the pig "Piggly Wiggly." For some reason that grocery store chain cracks her up.
