Growing Nowhere
Personal memory by Cameron
2018 • Idaho, USA
I moved to Idaho in about 2012 before moving away in 2018, but I visit the state often to see family and friends. It's a rapidly growing state though, and every time I go back more and more people are moving there. It's a lovely place, so I can't really blame them, but watching the skyline slowly fill up with office complexes, apartment buildings, and other societal structures is weird. It was once an incredibly remote place, yet it continues to grow. I hope it never grows too much.
