We all know Katherine and Gabe each chose to move to Idaho because of the beauty and the healthy life style that the people here pursue. They met each other here eight years ago. However, one of the persistent problems facing this area is that it can get very dry in summer and there can be forest fires. So everyone welcomes the rain when it comes in spring and early summer. I have been here since June 12, and on many days we have had cloudy overcast conditions, but no rain.
But today, as Huxley Stephen Schroder was entering the world, it rained and it is still raining. So, we are calling him the rain maker - that special one who, according to legend, brings life and energy to the world. Here are some pictures of the beautiful place where they live.
