Three-for-three!

May 18th, 2009

Three new-to-me skateparks in three days! I left Republic on Friday and skate McCall, Idaho (in the Mountain Time Zone) and then drove on to Boise. Saturday moring I skated Kuna, a farming town southwest of Boise. I took the Interstates on Sunday and skated Pendelton, Oregon on the way home.

Kuna was an interesting town. So was the snake-run into the deep end! Kuna was also a Dreamland park.

Republic water has E. Coli

Republic’s public water was found to have E. Coli in it during testing on Wednesday, April 15th. HAPPY TAXATION DAY! All water should be boiled for at least one minute, including just for brushing teeth. This could last a week! Thanks for the services!
