The entire state Capitol has turned into something of a three-ring circus today, with the first, second and third floors of its ornate central rotunda crowded with displays, booths, and crowds of browsers sampling Idaho products. It’s the annual “Buy Idaho” show, which showcases dozens of Idaho businesses and their products, and draws folks in to try everything from the gourmet popcorn to the special sausage to the pure bottled water.

To top things off, the fourth floor of the Capital also is filled with displays for Boise State University’s lobbying day at the Statehouse. In between the crowds, lawmakers are threading their way through to their various meetings and sampling the wares along the way.
