Yeah, I'll need someone to hang out with.

Not much there, except maybe KKK people. They generally don't come out of the woods however.

That's Northern Ida-ho.

I did a Civil war re-enactment in Spokane and we went into town in our CSA uniforms, bad idea. We go some dirty looks and managed to find the black people in town.

One guy in our group got an earfull from somebody. we did get a lot of dirty looks. I don't like wearing my uniform outside re-enactment; you look like a freak and it is uncomfortable. This was the only time we've ever had someone give us grief about wearing a Southern uniform. Anyway, every body thought we were from northern Idaho.

I've spent time in eastern Ida-ho

. and that is the most freakiest place I've ever lived.

(It re-defines rural hicks, and not in a good way.) I don't mind rural people, but I knew enough people there that were very narrow minded, and that really bothered me.
Just a basic example, I was there when Iraq invaded Kuwait. A large number of people (local) were convinced that this was the beginning of the apacolypse (the babylon thing). It was really funny to see some of these hysterical people run around telling people that this was the end of the world.

Hopefully, there are enough "for-ners":rotfl: in Boise, that 's not like that.

Here is the thing....I lived in the Eastern Shore of Maryland for a year and a half. It was very rural at the time and I felt like I was 5 years behind everyone else in the US. You just might feel this way in Boise. I like slow and easy every now and then but not 24/7.

I just need to buy a pair of overalls and grow a beard, I already have a musket.

When I was in eastern Ida-ho, I felt like I was 20 years behind.

:rotfl: To make things worse, I didn't have a car, so I couldn't escape.

Same with me on the Eastern Shore of MD. It was my first year at Salisbury University. No car. Could not wait to shake that town. I transfered to University of Maryland College Park and finished college there. I felt very backwards on the shore of MD. Some love it. Not for me.
