Idaho blows horn at Olympics

Ketchum man joins Ukraine in Olympic parade

Idaho officials and the media descended Monday on Salt Lake City to visit the state’s tourism center and cash in on 2002 Olympic fever. “This is a dream come true just to go to the Olympics,” said Gov. Dirk Kempthorne, left. The Winter Games “have opened the door to the West.” Above, Kempthorne shares some of his state promotion with Boise’s KTVB News Channel 7 Reporter John Miller.
