How can you visit Idaho without calling in on the Idaho Potato Museum? It would be like going to the mountain and not seeing Mahomet! Even in Australia the name Idaho is synonomous with potato. One third of all US grown potatoes come from Idaho. Potatoes aren't so attractive, so Idaho invited Marilyn Monroe to stand in a potato field for a promotional poster. This copy of the poster is in the museum.
We are spending two nights in the very small, but quaint town of Victor, just this side of the Tetons from Jackson. The weather is beautiful. It is 6.10pm and 25C (77F), fine and sunny. Murray is at the site next door where they are sitting outside having a beer, so I had better go and join them before it is dinner time.
