Voting From Home A Bad Idea for a Good Reason?
Camas Prairie Historical Monument on Johnson Hill
from Jack Varin Perhaps no other time is the grandeur of the Camas Prairie greater than in the spring. As one drives across the Prairie there is a sense of promise and memory of the people who do and have called the Prairie home. The History of the Prairie is truly remarkable from both a geologic, natural and historical context. The first inhabitants of the Prairie came in the spring to enjoy its bounty. Across the years many, many others have come to enjoy and make the Prairie their home. The turn out on Johnson Hill has beaconed all to come and behold the sight of the Sky, the Mountains, the vastness of the Prairie. As I drove across the Prairie last Wednesday to see how the work on the Johnson Hill Historical Sign site was going, I was overcome with the beauty of the Prairie as well as the memory of the many people who called the Prairie home. I saw the big red barn at Beulah Baldwin’s and thought about the ranchers and farmers, then by the Manard School Monument on Frostensen corner. Then I remembered the early Manard community who developed the Manard town site that I soon drove by. I recalled that there were many communities on the Prairie where people lived and thrived, even in the hard times. Next I drove on across the new bridge on Camas Creek and remembered the first inhabitants, the Indians, who came in large numbers to harvest the bounty of the Prairie. I also recalled the explorers and trappers and how they must have been taken with the beauty and aliveness of the Prairie. When I arrived at the Johnson Hill turn out, I thought how it is a mystical place for all to come and behold the sight of the Sky, the Mountains, the vastness of the Prairie and remember the people. Now, a monument is being constructed that will help all know and remember the uniqueness of the Camas Prairie and the many people who have called it home. Soon the Historical Sign will be placed that will help all who come to see and try to grasp the grandeur of this place and its people.
This year, voting from home has become a necessity. If you haven’t done so already, you need to make your request for an absentee ballot online, by contacting your county clerk, or check your local post office for application forms. You have until May 19th to apply, but don’t wait. Do it today! These new vote-from-home rules are only in place for the State Primary Election, but there may be similar rules put in place for the November General Election. In fact, there is a desperate effort by certain political groups to use the current “crisis” to make voting from home the norm for all elections. President Trump is very much opposed to this idea because of his concern for voter fraud. While many in the media are quick to pooh-pooh this concern, voting by mail has been irrefutably established as a gateway for fraudulent voting. Of course, the risk of fraud depends on the election rules of each state (some states are better than others). Perhaps the bigger concern with making voting from home the norm is that supporters of this idea also want to move away from paper ballots to on-line voting. This would save a considerable amount of money. But, if we have learned anything over the last several years (Russian meddling, the Clinton computer server, Ukrainian shenanigans, Facebook & Google), putting our elections on-line is the last thing we want to do. There is, however, one other thing to consider: who really benefits from wholesale voting-at-home? In general, Democrats want more vote-from-home, Republicans want to keep in-person-voting. Voting in person at your polling location is far safer - if you want fraud-free elections - but people who vote at home might be better voters. Absentee voting is meant for individuals who can not get to their polling location due to disability, military service, or other reasons. Yet, many individuals like voting absentee because it helps them be more involved and educated about the decisions they make. It is a sad fact that many voters are woefully uninformed or deceived about the world we live in. They vote for what “feels” good or the candidate who offers them the most benefits (money). Some just vote for a letter. Don’t be that kind of voter.

Cup of Tee
© March 31st, 2020, saw us with our third largest recorded earthquake in Idaho. It was 6.5 on the Richter scale and was near Mount Borah outside of Challis, Idaho. (Each number on the Richter scale is 10 times more than its previous number.) Where were you when we had this? I myself was driving a heavily loaded gravel truck near New Plymouth, Idaho, and didn’t notice the earth moving. Due to the Coronavirus shutdown, my daughter, Tiara, was teaching her class on-line. She was going over her syllabus (students curriculum) and telling the students what they should be expecting in their acting class. Tiara was broadcasting her on-line class from the remote mountain location of May, Idaho, which is only miles from the epicenter of the earthquake (point above the origin of the earthquake). In her syllabus, she was telling the students about visual, non-visual, and audio activities that the class contained. As she was doing this, the earthquake struck. Her first thoughts of the quake were her cousin slamming the cabin door in another room behind her. This was not the case. As she looked from wall to wall she realized it was more than the slamming of a door. The walls seemed to be moving. In the background a roar of the earth’s movement could be heard. Remember, while Tiara is making facial ex-

pressions, body movement, and the audio in the background, the class is watching her on-line as the computer is shaking as well. She told the class, “I think we are having an earthquake!” Her class didn’t believe her. After all, this is an acting class and she is in Idaho. The State of Idaho is known for the underground tuber (the potatoe) not the underground movement of earthquakes. As some point the students realize (probably by checking other electronic devices) that Tiara is actually in an earthquake and is not acting to emphasize the class of acting. Nature sometimes has a strange way of assisting us for things we need to learn. In the Continental United States, Idaho ranks fifth in earthquakes. California would be first, followed by Nevada, Washington, Wyoming (Idaho) and Utah. Overall, Alaska is number one and Hawaii is tied for third. In all of these states, there is volcanic activity, sharp mountains, and rivers. All of these assist in the earth’s movement underground. As my daughter experienced one of Idaho’s worst recorded earthquakes, I myself (generations earlier) experienced another of Idaho’s worst earthquakes in the same general area. I was hunting just outside of Challis, Idaho. Be sure to catch next week’s letter for my details on the Challis Earthquake of 1983.

Camp Rainbow Gold Moving To Virtual Camps For Summer 2020
1-208-246-9999 • Wednesday, April 15, 2020 • The Courier NEWS
Nonprofit organization prioritizes health and safety, sees opportunity to reach more children. Idaho nonprofit Camp Rainbow Gold has announced their summer camp programs will be provided via virtual events and activities this year. Health and safety of campers, families and volunteers are the top priority, and as a medical camp, Camp Rainbow Gold has been especially cautious for its campers and wants to respect the time and resources of local health systems and volunteers. The mission of Camp Rainbow Gold is to provide emotionally empowering experiences to Idaho’s children diagnosed with cancer and their families. While most well-known for week-long summer camps, Camp Rainbow Gold also provides family events, the teen support group “Survivors Supporting Survivors”, a college scholarship program and a community of support for families who have endured pediatric cancer. Camp Rainbow Gold is much more than a week of camp. “Our programs are going look different, but Camp Rainbow Gold is not closing, cancelling or changing our mission,” executive director, Elizabeth Lizberg shared. “We’re not going away, we’re getting creative.” Camp leadership teams are already adjusting programs to assure children and families can experience the hope, love, fun and magic of camp from the comfort of their homes, or even hospital rooms. “This year is an opportunity to reach even more vulnerable children and families across the state who have been unable to attend in-person events due to cancer treatments,” Lizberg said. Camp Rainbow Gold is already connecting campers in new and innovative ways, leading art classes, hosting Easter activities, planning virtual campfires and game nights, and moving their teen support group online. Camp Rainbow Gold’s summer program—combining Family Camp, Sibling Camp, and two Oncology Camps—will be held July 12-24, 2020. More information about the program schedule and events will be announced in June. Camp Rainbow Gold programs are open to any child who has ever experienced a cancer diagnosis. With virtual programs, children or families who may have previously been unable to attend camp for any reason should be encouraged to register and get involved. Families or caregivers should visit www.camprainbowgold.org or contact Camp Rainbow Gold by phone at 208-350-6435 or via email at info@camprainbowgold.org. Lizberg shared, “It is not our intention to transition to virtual events forever. Our greatest connections and relationships are built at camp and through our teen support group and we are committed to returning to in-person events when it is safe to do so. But we may also find some virtual events we really love! Some programs may remain in place in the future to reach even more fragile children every year. We anticipate the creativity and imagination during this time is only going to enhance our programs overall and provide us incredible opportunities to connect.” Camp Rainbow Gold is a community supported organization and is resilient because of support from Idaho residents. At the onset of the coronavirus situation in Idaho, Camp Rainbow Gold’s largest benefit, Share Your Heart Ball, was canceled a mere 48 hours before the event. While this was undoubtedly the right decision, it caused a devastating loss of funding for 2020. Donations made to Camp Rainbow Gold now will provide summer program resources and technology, support adjusted activities for camp, and help fund the 2020/2021 Scholarship Program. In a time of isolation and health concerns—which our families are all too familiar with—our campers need hope, love and fun more than ever and Camp Rainbow Gold is committed to providing the best services possible.

Aaron James Bean
January 2, 1983-March 22, 2020
Aaron left us much too soon on Sunday, March 22 in Wendell, Idaho. An amazing brother and loving uncle, we will miss his easy-going personality, infectious laugh, and huge heart. He loved shooting and fishing and was a big movie buff who could trade one-liners all day. He was humble, loyal, and hard working. Everyone who knew him is better for it. Aaron was born, raised and graduated in Burley, Idaho. He worked for his brother-in-law Tony, at DeWit Dairy in Wendell, where he had been employed for 15 years. He was an integral part of the operation and will be missed by all his coworkers. Working there kept him close to family where he enjoyed watching his niece and several of his nephews grow up. Aaron was preceded in death by: his mother - Lisa, with whom he was very close; and his grandparents. We know that they are back together watching over us. Aaron is survived by: his brothers - Jason (Jodi) and Nick (Jami); sister - Julie (Tony); nephews - Seth, Adam, Rowan and Cooper; and niece - Avery “Gracie”; and many aunts, uncles and cousins. Though Aaron left a void in this family that cannot be filled, the many lasting memories of him will carry us until we meet again. A celebration of Aaron’s life will be held on a later date. Cremation arrangements were under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service – Wendell Chapel. Condolences, memories and photos can be shared with the family by following the obituary link at www.demarayfuneralservice.com.

Perry Arthur Justice
1-208-246-9999 • Wednesday, April 15, 2020 • The Courier NEWS
Perry Arthur Justice died on the morning of April 8, 2020 of natural causes. He was 97 years old. Perry Arthur Justice was born February 23, 1923 in Hagerman, Idaho to Arthur William and Francis Ellen Stephens Justice. Perry reminisced: “Nobody had a better childhood than I did.” Growing up on a horse and cattle ranch beneath the Justice Grade, there was always fun to be had riding horses and rousing good times playing cards with his loving parents, five siblings, and cousins. Upon graduating from Hagerman High School, he enlisted in the US Army in 1942. Perry was part of the Second Engineer Special Brigade operating in the Pacific. His unit’s mission was to map, explore, develop landing zones, when called upon to spearhead landings, liberate American captives in prisoner of war camps, and recover the dog tags from mass graves of Americans who had been killed. The Second Engineers participated in six campaigns and 22 landings on Pacific beaches of New Guinea and the Philippines. Two stories give a glimpse of Perry’s character: Their transport ship was being strafed by kamikazes. The men, locked in the hull, were crying or yelling. Perry calmly said: “You might as well settle down and read a book. If we’re hit; we’re hit; if we live; we live, but there is not much we can do about it right now. The second story, Perry told of being overrun. He said his knees were knocking. He knew he was going to die. “I just wanted Dad to know I died like a man. When I knew I was going to die, I stopped being scared and have never been afraid since.” After the war, Perry married Norma Kathleen Ploss of Jerome, Idaho. He received a BS in chemistry from the University of Denver. Working as a chemical engineer for Dow Chemical Company for eight years, he decided he wanted to work with people. Subsequently, he taught chemistry and physics in Idaho high schools. After retirement came his favorite job: a reporter and editor for “The Farm and Ranch Reporter” of Meridian, Idaho. He loved talking with people and was a great story teller. Perry was passionate about the visual arts, especially painting, wood carving, and printmaking. He had a thirst for knowledge and was a bibliophile, studying Western history, geology, and solar energy. In his spare time hunted mushrooms, rock hounded, salmon fished in Alaska professionally, and built a three-story house in New Meadows Idaho, almost single handedly. He remained active throughout his life - golfing, bowling, and ballroom dancing. He hiked and skied into his late eighties. His daughter, upon seeing a drawer full of gold metals from the Senior Olympics, commented: “Dad, I didn’t know you were such an athlete.” His reply: “Well, when you are the only one who enters, it’s pretty easy!” Perry is survived by his dear friend of 17 years - June Heise; his daughters - Sivita Eve Justice, Jennifer Ann Justice, and April Lee Justice; his son - Gregory Kim Justice; 11 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren; and cousins - Florence Mary Sandy, age 96, Bill Jones, age 93, and Willa Walton, age 89. He was preceded in death by his son - Michael Douglas Justice; brothers - Leonard Stephens Justice and James Wilson Justice and sisters - Willie Lee “Billie” Johnston, Margaret Francis Hoff, and Eleanor Earl Swoboda. Perry’s advice on living: “Be kind to everyone.” Perry was buried in a private family service in the Hagerman Cemetery on Monday, April 13, 2020. At a date to be determined, a Celebration of Perry’s Life will be held at the Hagerman Methodist Church. Shared with the family at www.demarayfuneralservice.com
