The Treasure Valley
As a class of 1995 graduate of Ontario High School (located on the Snake River that is the border between Oregon and Idaho, founding place of Ore-Ida tater tots) I am comforted by the smell of sagebrush in a thunderstorm and the sight of snow on the distant Owyhee mountains. I find this community full of surprises (BOI airport has daily flights to Guadalajara!)and satisfaction (the Ridge to Rivers foothills trails system is an incredible public private partnership and park) Many more historical treasures await.
