Very Mom


Oooh! Oooh! I found a blogger who lives in Rigby, Idaho.

Every summer (well, almost) we make the drive from Northern California to Southwestern Montana to a cabin that my family owns. It is our sanctuary and the place where we can recharge our batteries for another year. Without it I don't know how we would stand "civilization" here in CA. On the drive up we go through Idaho and there is a place where it starts to look and feel more Montana-ish. I start to feel vacation is really happening. The first time I heard the Dixie Chicks' "Wide Open Spaces" I envisioned this place. The first time I saw the video to the song I thought that they had filmed it there. And that place is right around Rigby, Idaho. I've never lived there, I've only driven through, but it has a special place in my heart.

That's it for now as I have made myself cry. What week is this?
