It’s good you stayed away from 300 W where all the homeless encampments are because the worthless hide of a SLC mayor wants to be seen as compassionate. I have lived the majority of my life in this state but we’re going to head back north to SE Idaho. Too many Californians have moved here and are spoiling what Utah was/is.

SE Idaho is filling up with Californians also. Boise gets a lot of press about Californians moving there but the Idaho Falls/Pocatello and outlying areas are getting a lot of them too. We are getting a noticable amount of them in central Idaho - they are like fleas they are infesting the whole state.

Yeah, with the advent of the internet, nowhere is secret anymore it seems. Magic Valley is definitely out! Wifey is from Pokey and younger son is living there. We've definitely noticds what you mention, but it's nowhere near as bad as UT. Maybe Soda Springs or Montpelier. Was up on a job at one of the Phosphate mines last Feb. It got down to -37F that'll keep those S. Californian out of there!


Yours in Liberty,
