RE: Crump: Becoming a Californian/Twin Falls Times-News

Kamm: I’m a California expatriate. I moved with my daughter 21 yrs ago. So Cal wasn’t a place for her HS experience; too crowded; too violent, too much concrete. It’s way too hard to celebrate Christmas when it’s 86 degrees. It’s been a good move for us. But I miss my old friends as I get older. When I traveled down for my brother’s funeral I realized how comforting and accepting they are, how I could jump back into a conversation that had ended 20 years ago, how easy it was to feel 18 in their presence. I won’t move back because my daughter and my grandson are in this area but I’m saving up for another trip to replenish my heart.

Question: How long do you have to live in Idaho before you become a true Idahoan?
