COEUR d’ALENE — Rabbis Berel Bendet and Levi Dubov say they’re having a delightful time traveling North Idaho and meeting its residents.
And, no doubt, those who get to meet the two from the Chabad Rabbinical Visitation Program during their tour of Idaho are enjoying Bendet and Dubov as well.
“Idaho is, in general, a very welcoming and warm place,” said Dubov. “It’s not like in the East where everybody is a bit snappy.”
Bendet said the Coeur d’Alene-Post Falls community has been very open and welcoming.
