    This was in our local paper last week. I thouhgt those of you that attend the yearly circle race would enjoy the article. Seems Burley is on the radar...
    BURLEY -- An official says that about 500 more jobs will be created in and around the southern Idaho town of Burley as a result of companies relocating to rural areas.
    Bob Shepard, executive director of the Mini-Cassia Economic Development Commission, says large companies are looking to move to rural areas because they can't compete for resources in the big cities.
    He says the area has workers, many of whom lost jobs during recent potato and cheese plant closings.
    Shepard says he would like to see a variety of diversified companies come into the area so that one industry suddenly leaving wouldn't cause big shock waves through the community.

    Great, maybe by the time my house is built in Burley, I can get a part
    time job. I think it will be a good place to retire.
