Jackson, ah, Jackson. A lot of people don't like Jackson, but I think that is because they see the surface only. If you spend some time there and get to know locals, and see what is happening under the polished western facade, Jackson starts to look quite wonderful. The Grand Teton Music Festival, for example. Not only is it a world class music festival, but they offer free private lessons to middle and high school kids during the school year. How cool is that? They support local musicians, and grow student abilities, while boosting the music program at schools.
I am in love with Jackson, truly in love. I could live there, if only I could afford it.
An intermittent blog about Wyoming. Trail me as I wander around the state (working!) and I'll tell you about gorgeous places, our vibrant arts scene, good food and interesting people.
