Faith, Love, Freedom

3rd annual 9.5 mile trek over Gibson Jack Mountain in Idaho. It’s so beautiful and varied and really has everything. We didn’t see another soul, but it was on Tuesday for my birthday before the weather turned.

I voted today & Todd Achilles for Senator was my first selection!! 🗳️ ✅ I can’t tell you how much I want to see him win. No matter what, he’s run a campaign to be proud of & showed how he will work tirelessly for the people. #idaho #vote

Played hooky from work on my birthday & hiked 10 miles up and over a mountain. 🏔️ Stopped at Olive Garden to gain back all those calories 😂 & get free 🍰. It was nothing short of perfect today, but the 🌧️ is coming tomorrow. #idaho #hiking

Who is going to pick up on this obvious trend of changing polling locations at the last minute? First North Carolina, now Ohio! Lately, Ohio has been running red overall, but the big cities are BLUE. This occurred in Columbus, Ohio Thursday. #NoKings #voteearly

Last weekend we snuck in a quick hike before Rachel arrived in Idaho. We only had about 5 minutes of sprinkles. The dramatic sky made for great pics. We thought we saw a 🐻, but it was a 🫎. 📍 Pocatello

Up before the ☀️! Pocatello 🏔️ never disappoint. Lots of 🦌 early morning! 🍁 🏔️ 🧡 #idaho

#Yellowstone Upper Loop > Lower Loop! You can have Old Faithful! Wasn’t crowded at all today!?

We moved to Idaho for the mountains and weekends like this! ♥️

Hey #Idaho! Did you see how close this monster will be to our state? Wait until they come knocking for water or power.

Mountain therapy is undefeated! Mink Creek Rec Area #Pocatello #Idaho #nofilter

It’s not just that they’re maga, but in #Idaho the incumbents are too old! Little (Gov - 72), Simpson (Rep-75) & the most outrageous Risch (Senator - 82 & will be 83 next week)!! Why??

We live in the stupidest timeline! My neighbor doesn’t want to update hers now. www.eastidahonews.com/2026/04/trum...

Y’all in #Idaho! Look what came in the mail today. 😳🤮🤬 Don’t judge! We register R so we can vote in primaries against maga candidates & actually get to vote in primaries. I’m not voting for Risch or the other local maga.

Last weekend was like late fall/early winter. We are back to glorious spring temps! Still green, with snow on the highest tops. 💚 📍 Pocatello, ID

What a beautiful spring day in Idaho. I took deep breaths in the sunshine & thought about how grateful I am to be able to hike and get away into peace.

In my opinion, the biggest tell is that he wasn’t sundown posting on his lie social.

My 3 favorite #NoKings #Protest signs!

The way my #Idaho maga rep words his polls cracks me up! Not one word about what those untrained thugs have been doing in Minnesota and across America.

Pocatello, Idaho showed out again on a mild winter’s day. #protest #IceOut www.eastidahonews.com/2026/01/phot...

A hike in January in Idaho because there is next to no snow!!

#Pocatello #Idaho #Protest #IceOut Day 2 this weekend!

It is ludicrous that both coaches & players leave their teams before the post season is complete. Get it together #ncaa and make them all stay! It shouldn’t be allowed or have a heavy penalty to discourage it. #football #cfp

Vintage board game night! Who remembers this one from 1979? Still works perfectly & my daughter has always loved it!

Frosty beauty! 📍 Idaho

Those beautiful northern lights in eastern Idaho!

Another consistent, strong fighter for all of us!

Was in a furniture store today & owner said it’s super slow - people are scared to spend. I’m in maga Idaho. Hey y’all - if he’s so great like you say then why are you scared!??

Winter is coming ⏰ & the time change reminds us even more! We climbed a mountain today, but I feel like this was the best picture from the parking lot. 📍 Pocatello, ID

Y’all, why are all the top cabinet members moving onto military bases? Stephen Miller is the latest, but Rubio, Noem and Hegseth are already there. They’re selling homes for big $ and living free on these bases. What’s the real reason though?

Yo #Pocatello! Colbert gave the city a shoutout for the #NoKings protest. 💪🏻 💗

We had a nice walk in the mountains at our favorite time of year! 🍁

📍 Grand Teton National Park We are so lucky to live so close! Our annual fall visit was maybe the best one yet.

If you didn’t swoon or admire, I just don’t know what to tell you. He was a legend. He had the chops to go with the looks and he was a good guy.

Congrats Idaho! I see this in our future. These vouchers suck the taxpayer dollars dry.

Last week at Crater Lake in Oregon!

Forgot to post after our visit to Redfish Lake and Ketchum, Idaho a few weeks ago. One is already displayed in our house.

There are ‘rock throwers’ in 2025 who will wake up and regret it.

I really liked this movie! I was surprised at how touching it is.

Has one filthy rich American come out and said they don’t need the tax cuts?

A post I made about the protests on Friday has ended another sibling relationship for me. I was supposed to have unending tolerance for taco love & Biden bashing. One post & it’s the end. Sibling bonds should be stronger than that.

And now Chris Robinson (on the left) has died. He played Rick Webber. His onscreen wife also died in the last few months.

Beautiful Salmon, ID! 📍 Sacajawea Center Trail

I went to see Snow White tonight & it was so impressive! I fell in love with the dwarfs & the animals and the storyline was great! Oh what talent! There were only 3 of us, but it’s been labeled woke because of the lead actress & I’m in maga country. Such a shame!

Why is coffee creamer so flipping expensive?? I have a short pour & my ☕️ is mostly black, so it goes a long way. But my gosh! 💰
