What are things to do in and around BYU-Idaho and Rexburg Idaho? Question: I'm a student at BYU-Idaho and I'm looking for things to do in and around it! I have friends with cars, so if we need to drive to go somewhere fun, that's fine too. I've been here a week and I feel like I've already exhausted all possibilities haha help please! Answer: When I was there we just did tons of stuff with friends. If you're dying to actually do stuff where you have to drive, Bear World is fun, the sand dunes are fun, there are TONS of outdoor recreational opportunities like hiking, biking, swimming, camping, etc. Plus, there is always stuff going on on campus. What kind of stuff did you do at home? |

hauling a trailer with a Honda Civic? Question: I have a 2000 Honda Civic EX coupe 4 cylinder with about 130 hp and 100 ft-lbs of torque. I would like to hitch a trailer (87-1/2" L x 52-3/4" W x 22-3/4" H) that weighs 200 lbs with a 540 lb motorcycle on it and drive 1,800 miles (Houston, Texas to Rexburg, Idaho). Will my car be able to handle it? Is it possible? What are the risks involved? What kind of driving experience could I expect? The trunk and back seat of my car will probably be sufficiently filled with stuff as well. ~Thanks hitch: http://store.uhaul.com/hitches.aspx trailer: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?I temnumber=2575 Answer: I have a 98 ex coupe with 127 at the motor, but like you, it's probably down to about 110 at the wheel. I wouldn't recommend hauling anything with a civic that far. You're asking for it. Go the safe route and rent a truck with a trailer. Tie down your bike in the truck and your car to the trailer. I'm assuming you're moving. If you're not, obviously just tie down the bike. |

Did anyone hear the news report about the train accident in Idaho on Saturday? Question: I was driving my friend from Rexburg, ID to the Idaho Falls airport on Saturday, and we were in a traffic jam forever. When we finally got up to the scene, we saw a ton of rescue vehicles and police, a stopped train, a smashed car, tons of news stations and people in chaos. I found out later that an 8 month pregnant woman with her 11 year old son, and 3 year old daughter were trying to cross onto the highway when they were hit by the train. There car was knocked 100 feet into a pond by the river, the son was pronounced dead at the scene, the daughter is in the ICU, the mother had to undergo a C-section and the new baby is ok. Does anyone have any more details? I saw the woman and girl get life flighted, and I even saw the boy's covered body being loaded into an ambulence. It was an enormous scene. I was shocked and terrified. I prayed for whoever was involved and want to know more. God bless that poor family, not to mention the train conductor. Thanks for your time. Answer: The mother didn't make it, the 11 year old died also. :-( The three year old is in intensive care, baby was delivered and is doing fine. And the father recently returned from Iraq. |

Should I buy a cell phone in my situation? Question: I dont need to have a cell phone other than for safety purposes right now because my car may die at any moment. I dont really talk on the phone often especially since all my friends are at college. I'll be leaving for college in the fall to idaho (rexburg) At school I know I'll use the phone often but right now I just want a phone for security/safety If I get a cell phone I want the phone itself to be nice because I'll want a cool looking phone for college but Whats the least expensive thing to do for minutes? Should I just carry a 2 way walkie talkie on me when I drive (I've got one) Any Ideas? Today I'm supposed to buy the phone from a cricket dealer that is a motorola. Someone said cricket is bad because no roaming and I'll be going back and forth from Oregon to Idaho will that effect me? Answer: hi, well my suggestion to u is this, your car isn't trustworthy so u should get a pay as u go phone & that way u don't need a big phone bill cuz u pay as u go. then if u want to use it in college u can change your price plan. i like T-Mobile but in your situation u should check out veizon cuz they have roll over minutes & i think that's the affordable way for u so do your homework about price plans with T-Mobile & Verizon & choose the 1 u like best. good luck |

What are things to do in and around BYU-Idaho and Rexburg Idaho? Question: I'm a student at BYU-Idaho and I'm looking for things to do in and around it! I have friends with cars, so if we need to drive to go somewhere fun, that's fine too. I've been here a week and I feel like I've already exhausted all possibilities haha help please! Answer: Me too. Check your e-mail. usually the student updates fill you in on upcoming activities. So that can be helpful. I think when we get our FHE groups all lined out and everything, you'll find many more fun things to do with them. Since I'm from here though, I can give you a few tips. Go to the St. Anthony Sand bar and go swimming before it gets too cold. (And it will get very cold very fast.) Go to Barnes and noble in Idaho Falls and get vanilla bean frappuccinos (not coffee ha), and chill there, read some books. Do baptisms for the dead. Bike down west from from the temple (pass the stake center) and turn left after the newlywed apartments onto that one road that leads to the South Rexburg Exit.. Don't bike clear to the exit of course, but that road is fun to bike. There's not much traffic and it's a newer road. On Sunday nights, go stadium singing, bring a hymnbook and meet under the stadium at 9:30 pm. There's loads of people. Beaver Dick Park is fun. It's west of rexburg, past Burton. Have a picnic/party/s'mores roasting night at the sand dunes. If you head straight north out of rexburg (like on the walmart road) and keep going, you'll pass Salem and Parker, and you'll eventually see the sand dunes. They're pretty fun. With your friends, line out a few blind dates, That's always fun. Have lunch in the gardens make cupcakes, deliver them to neighbors, or boys. Watch movies at the paramount and Holiday. It's cheap there! and probably within walking distance. Make homemade icecream rent movies go up to Heise hot springs and do the cress creek nature trail hike. Join the gym sessions, like Yoga and aerobics for free. They're fun. Swim at Heise hot springs. Do you ski or snowboard? Kelly Canyon will be opening in not too long. take advantage of the gym at your complex. Porter Park is always FULL of college kids. Playing frisbee, having picnics, etc. Eat at Bambinos in rigby. It's right off the North Rigby exit. And it is delish. Go bridge jumping. I recommend twin bridges (not the one in Archer, the one in... Teton?. I'm not for sure the town, but its Northeast of Rexburg. Ask someone local, they'll know). It's a good one. I do not recommend Monkey Rock however. Go spelunking at the civil defense caves. (kind of by the sand dunes) and buy some glow sticks.. as many as you can. wear WARM clothes and good shoes (bring a first aid kit, and water), and hike in about 4 big caves worth (it gets really cold!), you'll eventually get to this cave that's the size of a football field. It will be completely black.So cut open all your glow sticks, (be careful about the ones with glass in them) and throw them all over yourselves and the cave. It will look like space in there. Then play hide and seek. Or sardines. It is SOO much fun. I've done this so many times, And it never gets boring. Go get Jambas at Jamba juice. It's a pretty good hangout. So is hogi Yogi... but watch out with Hogi yogi, sometimes there's strange people hanging out there... Go to the local high school football games with a group of friends. They're fun. Okay. that's all I can think of. Maybe if you don't have a job, be looking around for one. But I'm sure when the full force of studies this semester kicks in, you won't feel quite so bored. Good luck. Have fun. Hope this helped. If you have any other questions, you can ask me. I'll be happy to help you. |
