Boise is a unique Idaho community. Unlike many communities in Idaho, we emerged from being the dusty cow town of the 60's with the establishment of a robust business environment. By the mid 70's it was clear change was needed and the seeds of our progressive culture were planted. Unlike much of the rest of Idaho we got through the 80's and became the dynamic city you see today.
I was in the Treasure Valley a few weeks ago and saw no sign of this, though Boise is certainly a different place than the smaller city I used to frequent in the '80s and '90s. That I didn't see it is probably a good thing given the statewide context, and I hope the good work continues.

We should all do what Boise is doing.
