Noah killed it! This video is from two different trips and only has a few of the rapids. Editing it really reminded me what a special river this is. It has it all, scenery, whitewater, solitude, fishing, chukars and turkeys! What more could you want. A hot spring I guess, well you cant have everything! This is definitely where I will be dreaming about being when I am to old and headed for the first tee.

No open houses for me this weekend! It's time for the Komen Race For The Cure. For the last four years I have been volunteering for The Race For The Cure, here in Boise Idaho. I am in the Survivor tent helping make sure everyone who wants a cup of coffee from The Human Bean or a sandwich from Blimpie’s gets one. We decorate the tent to provide a bright and peaceful place for all of the Survivors to relax and enjoy everyone’s company (each survivor can bring 1 guest). It brings a smile to my heart to see all of the survivors smiling faces. The survivor tent opens at 7:30 am.
This year we glazed plates at Piggy Pigs Pottery, thank you Becky and David! We will use these to decorate the tent and to display the geraniums that are so thoughtfully donated by…

Happy Hunters! Less Than An Hour From Boise!
I will teach you where they live and some strategies for a successful hunt! There is good hunting close to Boise, but even better less pressured areas further north. There are some areas that have strong population numbers but they usually have high numbers of two legged turkeys as well. So after opening I try for spots that may have had a little less pressure! We may even be able to combine rafting and turkey…

Looking For A Safe Place To Move Too? Move to Boise Idaho!
Mayberry = Boise on Steroids!
And Boise Idaho real estate is reasonably priced! You only need to look at a few homes for sale in the Boise mls to see that.
Movoto's blog has ranked Boise as the Number 8 safest city in the country. With a strong middle class, even distribution of wealth, an educated public the incentive to rape, pillage and plunder is just not there. In Boise Idaho we have very little crime. In fact in 2112 there was only 1 murder. So I feel that if Movoto, a national real estate broker can give Boise an award so can I.
So without further delay I hereby award Boise Idaho as the winner of the first every
"Mayberry" USA Award!
Hey Jack as someone once said, with…

Home prices are on the rise, and inventories are very low. That makes now a great time to get your house in great condition to command a good price.
Get more money to put toward your next home purchase. Implement these tips to get your home ready to sell quickly at a great price and be ready to find your next place.
1. Make sure you have great curb appeal. Mow your lawn, weed your garden, and clean it up. Do any minor repairs that you can that affect the approach to your home. Do the same out back. A poor first impression will make buyers more critical on the inside, looking for flaws.
2. De-clutter the inside of your home. Less clutter and neatness signal good care and give the impression of more space. Consider renting a storage unit to store…

Borrowers getting a loan to buy Boise Idaho real estate need to beware. If your Identity is stolen you will have to endure a lot of repair work to get back into a position to get a new mortgage for Boise Idaho real estate.
Zillow just launched its new Mortgage Pre-Approval Tool which according to Zillow "allows home shoppers to get pre-approved for a mortgage quickly and easily". Sounds good right? Well like most anything else, a consumer, in this case Borrowers need to dig a little deeper. What Zillow appears to be offering is a central location to collect the initial information for a Borrower to be Pre-Approved for a mortgage. Zillow will then pass their information to affiliated Lenders who…

Get the brightest, cleanest windows!
Everyone knows that having a clean well staged home with lots of light will result in a higher sales price! A great place to start is the windows. Get the brightest, cleanest windows! A simple mixture of two parts water to one part white distilled vinegar is all you need for a clean finish on windows and glass surfaces. Wipe the inside of windows from side to side, and the outside of windows from top to bottom. This makes it easier to see which side (if any) needs further cleaning.
Insider tip: Try and tackle the job while the weather is still cool to prevent streaking. Start indoors before installing your screens, then finish the job outside on a dry day.
