On an unseasonably warm spring day, Sandy Nabbefeld and her husband Dave were sitting in the shade of the porch of the Dirty Shame, a popular restaurant and watering hole in Crouch, Idaho. The small town is an hour and change north of Boise, tucked into the western edge of the stunning Garden Valley, near the confluence of the south and middle forks of the Payette River. Pine-thick mountains rise many hundreds of feet in all directions.
