Field trip: Idaho State Capitol Tour

Today we took a tour of the Idaho State Capitol Building arranged by the Treasure Valley Homeschool Meetup group. It was a great field trip! The capitol looks all shinny and new. They did so much restoration and took great care to maintain the historic look of the building interior. (See awesome pics below-House is Blue, Senate is Red.) We had been to the Capitol before the renovations and it looked old, worn out, dimly lit, and yellowish. It looks amazingly bright and light now. All that shinny white marble, white paint, and skylights making it glow.

  3. I didn't know there was a TV HS Meetup group! As a new Idahoan, will definitely have to take my children to the capitol soon.
