Paladin:
I would love to enter a "below average" vote if I knew how.
St Raphael:
Mike, In comparison to what? To other DOE sites, or to the industry in general?
St Raphael:
Eastern Idaho's largest city, Idaho Falls is somewhat small (50,000). Although small, there are about seven communities surrounding Idaho Falls - giving the area a lot to offer. Eastern Idaho has it all, Camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, kayaking, mountain climbing, as well as about 13 golf courses. Four scenic byways. Sand dunes. Fantastic winters because the snow is super light. Great for snowboarding and downhill skiing, with the Grand Tetons- Jackson Hole-Yellowstone about an hour away. Opal mines in Spencer. Several museums- the states largest - the Museum of Idaho. Shoshone-Bannock Gaming Casino at Fort Hall. A great Bluegrass festival in the summer in Targee. For the Arts crowd; Idaho Falls Arts Council, plays, dance, classical music, musical threatre, opera, the Colonial Theater, Rock, Blues. Willard Arts Museum, 8 Art Galleries, Comedy, Dinner Theater, nightclubs and bars. An airport with direct flights to Seattle, Boise, and Salt Lake. Three universities and a community college. Shoppping; TJMaxx, Bed, Bath and Beyond, Malls, And yes, of course the INEEL. Biggest drawback - NO OCEAN!!!!! :( [smiley=bigcry.gif] Only an airplane ride away. :D

Great place to go if you love outdoors and being away from big cities and what these can offer - good and bad. If you like to hunt or fish or whitewater raft GO. If you like night life, easy access to everyplace else, warmer weather - DON'T GO ! Its a very conservative area.
