Here's The One Thing No One Tells You About Moving To Idaho
I remember the very first day I crossed over the state line into Idaho. I had just gotten a radio job in Boise, and was moving across the country from the Midwest.
Which means only one thing: My #1 expectation for Idaho was broken the moment I arrived in Boise.

So, what was my #1 expectation when moving to Idaho? That’s right, that there would be potato fields everywhere.
I swear to Justin Bieber, every single person responded with “Ope, hope you like potatoes,” when I told them I was moving to Idaho. None of them had ever been there, mind you, but they had me convinced that Idaho was one giant potato field, with some potato factories and potato stores sprinkled in here and there.
Much to my dismay, I drove across most of the state to get to Boise, and…nothing. No potato fields. Maybe I drove by some and missed it? Maybe they’re “off the beaten path” and nowhere near highways and interstates?
Or, maybe I was lied to. Maybe Idaho isn’t all potato fields. Because, if it is, I’m having one hell of a time finding them!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but you do have to do a little searching and sightseeing to find Idaho’s famous potatoes. Right?

Gas prices expected to exceed $3 as the Iran conflict prompts supply shortages
BOISE, Idaho — AAA is warning Idaho gas consumers that pump prices will likely rise as the conflict in Iran disrupts oil and gas supply chains worldwide.
The ongoing turmoil in the Middle East will likely push the price for a gallon of regular gasoline past the $3 mark over the coming days.
“On one hand, the crude oil market had time to account for some financial risk in the Middle East as forces mobilized, but a supply shortage somewhere affects the global picture,” says AAA Idaho public affairs director Matthew Conde. “If tankers can’t move products through the region, there could be ripple effects.”
On Monday, March 2, the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline is $2.97, reports AAA, which is 12 cents more expensive than it was a month ago but 20 cents less than this time last year.
State / Price: 1 gallon of regular gasoline
- Washington / $4.37
- Oregon / $3.92
- Nevada / $3.70
- Idaho / $2.97
- Colorado / $2.89
- Montana / $2.82
- Utah / $2.74
- Wyoming / $2.73
In terms of the most expensive fuel in the nation, Idaho currently ranks #14. However, buying a gallon of regular gas in neighboring states such as Oregon and Washington could cost a whole dollar more. In contrast, gas prices in Utah, Montana, and Wyoming are anywhere between 15 to 24 cents cheaper than fuel in the Gem State.

Idaho politicians respond to Trump authorizing U.S military force in Iran
On Saturday, the United States and Israel launched major strikes in Tehran, with President Trump calling for an Iranian regime change.

President Trump authorized the U.S military operation without congressional approval, a decision that Democrats in Congress are arguing is unconstitutional.

Idaho Democratic Party Chair Lauren Necochea says Democrats are “demanding answers and accountability on behalf of the American people, who are being dragged toward another open-ended war they do not support.”
Necochea says her greatest concern lies with American troops, contractors and civilians who she says “did not choose this conflict.”
“Idaho has thousands of active-duty servicemembers, National Guard members, and military families who live with the consequences when leaders make reckless choices,” she says.
However, not all lawmakers share Necochea’s sentiments.
Idaho Republican representative Mike Simpson commends President Trump’s “decisive action” in Iran.

“Iran was given every opportunity to resolve this peacefully through negotiations but chose not to,” Simpson said in a post to Facebook. “I commend President Trump for taking decisive action against a regime responsible for decades of terror. May God protect our men and women in uniform on this vital mission.”
