The Boise River flows through the middle of town and is the lifeblood of the city. Not only do people swim in the river, they kayak, inner-tube and fish. Recog- nizing the energy and value that a beloved river provides to their citizenry, Boise has made great efforts to cultivate greatness and innovation with its river. Earlier this spring, Boise opened a white- water park north of down- town. When I moved from Boise to Portland 15 years ago, Port- land was becoming known for its “green, fresh-thinking” culture. Almost immediately upon arrival, I was put on no- tice that “nobody swims in the Willamette . . . it is a toilet . . . a Superfund site.” My initial reaction was out- rage, then disappointment.
