This is a new update. After six years living in the tiny home we inherited we determined ocean hills country club was not our life style. We decided to move to Walla Walla Washington alas nothing met our criteria so off to Boise idaho to look. We ended up buying a huge house 2572 square ft one level on a pond in neighborhood called Waterview Estates in Star.about 10 miles west of boise. It met all our requirements including 3 or 4car garage plus storage.
Thinking of the history of Idaho's reputation we were concerned about two gay guys in rural idaho. Not to worry.. neighbors great and it is a non issue as it should be. Loved the autumn leaves waiting for snow.
After two months we love it even more..don't tell anyone but money goes a lot further here. Most of our neighbors are from calif or Washington state.
Most downsize at this age...We expanded...
Addendum: been here a year and a half and we have had a wonderful time here..We do a summer party in our garden neighbors have parties and we enjoy cold snowy winters going to Sun Valley and enjoying our new slightly rural life.
Star Idaho fastest growing city in fastest growing state....We are blessed. Alas as my 70th has come and gone and Blake's 78th birthday is behind us we experience various issues with the bodies...leaking radiators ...burned out head lights soft tops fading and wobbly axels. Let's not discuss the exhaust system
My 76 eldo Cadillac leaks oil we call it "marking its territory" ....cheers!

High School was another time of change. My mother died of breast cancer in my sophomore year, 1965...I was her care giver for six months. No one knew, and I had no support so I did what needed to be done, again it only made me stronger and to be able to find myself with no ones help. I stayed off drugs even with the opportunites, and we all know about those.
I guess the funniest thing was an assembly(as they used to call them) where I was ushering guests in and I was showing Monty Hall the direction, and swung my arm around (as only a drama queen would do) and slapped Joanne Hall (Gleason) in the face by accident....Well.. the show must go on. It was so crazy I recall not much happened and I moved on from there.
Remembering the dress code is just hysterically funny when you see how the kids dress today. Romaine Pauley and the ruler for girl's (my sister was notorious) and of course no long hair for guys...until 1968 graduation.
I also met teachers outside of class, in various compromising situations, both male and female and was surprised how many were homosexual or lesbian.
No names available, as it is such a non issue now, but back then... well, we have thankfully moved on to a much better time for the gay community.
