If I had ever been here before I would probably know just what to do, don't you

Packing to go on a week-long horse roundup in Idaho, plane leaving in, oh, about 10 hours. I'm not worried about the riding, I'm not worried about being off the grid for that long, I'm not even worried about whether I have enough shampoo or micro-SD cards. It's just... I don't... I've never been to Idaho before, and what if it sucks?

ETA: I can pack for Stockholm in half an hour max, even if I'm staying an extra couple days to do a race. So it's definitely a slightly-outside-my-comfort-zone anxiety.

Well, if it sucks, you'll eventually leave and come back home. :)

But horses! So it can't suck -that- much.

Have fun!

A friend from California recently went to Boise and would seriously consider owning a vacation home there if money allowed. I interviewed Boise city librarians and the assistant to the Mayor for my book year before last, and they are marvelously progressive.

It's totally a blueish-city-in-a-red-state situation, so even if you're not in Boise, at least there's some kind of there there.

And also, HORSES! <3
