And in other non-election news, it’s Ski Swap time. Doors will open at 3 p.m. today for the 66^th annual Ski Swap at the Expo Idaho, benefiting the Bogus Basin Ski Education Foundation. That’s earlier than in the past – in fact, it’s coming right up, but here I sit waiting for political types to return my calls.

The swap already is open for sellers to check in equipment. It opens to buyers today from 3-10 p.m.; Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is $3 today and Saturday; on Sunday it’s free with a canned food donation.
