    Have you ever walked on the Boise Greenbelt or floated the Boise River? Then you've technically been in an Ada County Park. The county manages Barber Park and miles of trails around the Treasure Valley.

    After months of work and public input, the county is about to unveil a master plan for its parks and waterways. So we invited Robbie Sosin with Ada County Parks and Waterways back on Idaho Matters to tell us more.

    In 1923, Eleanor Davis became the first recorded woman to climb the Grand Teton – the namesake for Grand Teton National Park. One hundred years later, an all-female group of climbers summited the peak to celebrate her legacy. Wyoming Public Radio's Hannah Habermann went along for their recent climb, and has this report for the Mountain West News Bureau.

    Election Day is Tuesday, which means people will be heading to the polls to cast their votes for local officials taking part in the mayoral, city council and school board races across the state.

    We wanted to take a closer look at what voters can expect to see on their ballots, as well as what they'll need at the polling station. So Idaho Matters invited Idaho Statesman reporter Rachel Spacek to help break things down.

    For many people, vaccines for flu, viruses and COVID-19 strains are extremely effective at warding off the diseases they’re designed to protect against. But for some, including the elderly and people with chronic diseases, the results can be less effective.
    Dr. Laura Jenski has worked in immunology and oncology at places like Purdue and Marshall Universities, studying the immune system and how it works. She’s been looking at progress in how vaccines are developed and how they’re becoming more effective for more people.

    Dr. Jenski is teaching a class on vaccine development Thursday, Nov. 9, at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute in Boise, and she joined Idaho Matters to talk more.

    Over the last year, Idaho has become home to over 1,200 refugees fleeing war and persecution.

    Despite finding a safe harbor though, the resettlement process is not an easy one. Which is why programs like Artisans For Hope are working to support these new members of the community, starting with a needle and some thread.

    Ellie McKinnon, the Executive Director of Artisans For Hope, joined Idaho Matters to talk more about the organization.

    This week on Expressive Idaho, we head to the Melba home studio of weaver Linda Morton-Keithley. She started weaving more than 50 years ago, when she took an undergraduate occupational therapy course at Western Michigan University.

    Morton-Keithley dove deeper into fiber arts for a master’s degree in historic costume and textiles at Colorado State University. Her education led to her roles that include being a curator, museum director and an archivist.

    Now, she and her husband outfit modern cowboys with handmade gear, including Morton-Keithley’s hand woven saddle blankets. Arlie Sommer brings us her story as part of the Expressive Idaho series.

    Dr. David Pate, former CEO of St. Luke's Health System, joined Idaho Matters to talk more about how to do this.
