My older siblings doing farm work and myself either trolling on Magic Reservoir or fishing in Big Wood River - Gramps was retired when I came along. We were always of the 208 even when we were not in the 208!

        That makes me feel better... I did my share of fly fishing on the Big Wood River growing up there. My mother and sisters are still in the 208 and I take my kids there in the summer. It is too damn hot in Texas.

            Pretty good response from Bowlsby, minimal, dismissive yet courteous.
            Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                  Preach it brother! I was born in south central Idaho, but my parents moved when I was 1 year-old. My grandparents had a ranch outside of Fairfield on the Camas Prairie and I spent a few summers on the ranch before my grandparents sold it. I have great memories of fishing the Big Smokey creek. We also spent summers camping and hiking in the Stanley Basin at Redfish Lake.

                  I'm proud to be a son of the 208!

                          Yeah, I kept my truck registered in Idaho most of my BYU career because Utah had that god awful property tax on cars at the time. Utah finally wised up and got rid of that stoopid tax. Born and raised in the 208!

                              Don't push it... But it is good to hear that you had a taste of the good 208 life growing up.
