I live there till I was 11 and I'm 34 now and back then I remember Not much older then me at time fighting and putting each other in wheel chairs slicing faces and necks, stabbing and shooting each other to death and it was like another day in the neighborhood. The way I explain it to my girlfriend is that it's a small town with a chip on its shoulder that no one knows of so they have too go the extreme to show that they are just as ruff as the big cities. Much like the youngest kids in the gang are the most dangerous cause they have more to prove. Anyways I live Seattle now. And miss Maxies and Papa kelseys but that's it. Oh and the schools s**k a*s. Nothing to do except cow tipping and trying not to date your cousins, yeah it's a thing...
Dirkys lake was my favorite place to go when i did live there which was right off the snake river down a lil canyon and if u hike behind that they which was called then the hidden lakes which was like 3 or 4 of them and u could go cliff jumping off of them, but lots of deaths probably 3 each year when I live there I think don't quote me on that, and the other thing which is really popular now, it wasnt so much when i lived there but I think they had to capitalize on it to help the city gain more publicity is base jumping off the bridge with a but I hear about 3-5 people die each year doin that too but has gained a lot of attention across the nation and the world I believe for the extreme seeking fanatics at are into that stuff.
