Googling North Idaho

*RuralNorthwest.com provides the wanted boys and girls from the Kootenai County sheriff’s warrant roundup here.

*Bonner County Repubs are up-in-arms about the $$$ pulled in by legislative wannabe Steve Elgar from out of state here.

*Frankly, I don’t know anything about the Eat-It Club and columnist Jane Rees of The Japan Times On Line, but, apparently, she and others visited Coeur d’Alene for a golf tournament recently. And she talks a lot about our town here.

*Matt Gipson, who averaged 16.3 points and 8.0 rebounds per game for North Idaho College last season, made his debut as a Hawaii Rainbow Warrior here.

*Oregon investors are dropping $32 million into two big Post Falls projects here.

*The North America Vexilological Association judged the flag for the city of Pocatello as the ugliest one of 150 in the country here. (OK, this isn’t North Idaho. But it’s still interesting.)

*The Green Bay Press-Gazette mentions a local girl who’s done well in North Idaho: Cynthia Blohowiak. You know her as Jim Hammond’s wife, Cyndie. And you can read all about her here.
