Dave - Great calls, but…You need to come back and spend some more time back here in Les Bois…
(hint, hint!)
Hyde Park is still a great place to go, but Lucky 13 in Hyde Park is no longer… They moved to Harris Ranch after a dispute with the landlord. There’s now some other place in there but when I’ve been by, not too many patrons (nothing like L13!). In lieu of Lucky 13 in Hyde Park, I’ll suggest getting a milkshake or carmel corn at Goodies!
State Capitol may not be the best place to visit right now with the construction going on. However, I’m betting you and I have the same fond memories of touring that place as kids (and singing w/the high school choirs in the rotunda at Christmas … do they still do that?)
luv ya!

Lucky 13… Hmmm… now that you mention it, I think I remember that.
Okay then, replace that with ICEBLOCKING down Simplot hill. Or the hill that’s below the governor’s mansion… formerly Simplot’s place.
