Seamons) Known first as Worm Creek because <strong>of</strong> a stream winding through dry bluffs, <strong>Preston</strong>, Idaho, blossomed as its first residents harnessed life-giving waters from surrounding mountains.

On his way to Bear Lake, Brigham Young, colonizer <strong>of</strong> the West and president <strong>of</strong> the Church <strong>of</strong> Jesus Christ <strong>of</strong> Latter-day Saints, had his driver stop near the present business district <strong>of</strong> <strong>Preston</strong>. Placing his cane to the ground, he said, “There will be a great city built here.?? Today, <strong>Preston</strong> is a pretty great place.<br />
