Idaho History

If we asked you to name an Idaho ghost town, the first one that probably comes to mind is Silver City.

If you have one of these last names, you're most likely to run into someone shares the same name but you aren't related to them.

Did you know that the Fun Spot wasn't Boise's first amusement park?

In the late 1860s, the gold and silver rush reached what would eventually become the city we call home today.

If you’re a little burnt out with the standard issue “Famous Potatoes” plates there are over 30 specialty plates that you dress your ride up with.

It’s no secret that the first numbers and letters on each standard plate indicate which county the vehicle is registered in.

If we had to choose Seven Wonders of Idaho, what would they be? There are a lot of great landmarks and natural beauty to pick from.

We have so many regrets about parting with our childhood coin collection. So many regrets!

Every state has a couple of themed quarters. We have two very different quarters with real meaning. See close up pictures and why Idaho's quarters show what they do and the meaning behind them.

The underground tunnels are mostly used by government and state employees. The tunnels go under streets, sidewalks and buildings mostly in and around the capitol in downtown Boise. Most of the original paintings are dated from 1986, 1987, and 1988. The original art has been hiding from the public in these underground tunnels for 35 years.
