HAILEY — When Martha Burke bought the house at 203 E. Bullion St. in Hailey almost 40 years ago, she had no idea the house dated back almost to the city’s found- ing. She just knew she liked it. “I felt so happy when we moved in here, so lucky, and I’ve never stopped feeling that way,”she said. A few years ago, historians approached her with research done on the house, asking whether she would be willing to have it put up for consideration for the National Register of Historic Places. “It never occurred to me.

Ketchum couple lives Healthy home in tune with nature By Rebecca De Leon Times-News writer
KETCHUM — “We live a rich life and we wouldn’t trade it for anything,”Dale Bates said. Offhandedly, an observer might not understand his meaning of rich — Bates and his wife have only one car and live on a modest 4,400-square-foot lot. “There’s no way I would give this up for a fancy car and a high-rise apart- ment,” said Dale Bates, a longtime architect. The couple agreed they have found what’s important: love, health, spirituality. And it’s important to them to have a home that reflects their values instead of separating them from their natural surroundings. “Most of the people in society today don’t look at themselves as growing, but we’re always progressing, and our Peggy, left, and Dale Bates pose in front of their downtown Ketchum home, built on the backyard habitat should reflect that,”Dale Bates lot of a more traditional home that is now used as a business.
