We had the pleasure of being in Boise on Saturday, and it just so happened that that was the day our state capitol building was reopened. It has been closed, undergoing a two-year renewal, and it was quite a sight to see.
It was packed with people enjoying the building in it's new grand state. It's sunny and welcoming and we got to see many people we knew from across the state (especially that Paul knew!). We saw a couple of our senators--one who gave us a quick tour.
The lower floor now houses "The History of Idaho." There are stations that represent various stages of Idaho's history. Very well-done by our state historian. This Idaho history teacher could have stayed a lot longer. Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to go back for another visit!

Here's a picture (sorry, a poor one) of one of the history stations at the Capitol. You'll just have to go see them for yourself to see how great they really are.
