What an unexpected beautiful day in the Tetons.
What is the weather usually like at this time of year ? Well … it’s variable.
I came across this blog entry, Work/Life Balance … is it a Myth? earlier today, written by an IT recruiter. Can you have your cake and eat it too? The article points out the importance of making choices and setting priorities … something I talk about all the time.
To give you a brief description of the Journeys School philosophy:
Teton Science Schools connects people, nature, place and education to a wide variety of audiences. Journeys School is one of the six major program areas of Teton Science Schools. Journeys School’s mission is to integrate ecology, culture and community to ensure academic excellence and personal success in a Pre-K through 12th grade independent school setting. Journeys School faculty and staff, along with the rest of the organization, work in a collaborative and inspiring setting where ideas are freely shared. All care deeply about innovative education, challenging their students to think, and a sustainable lifestyle; the belief that their work will change the world permeates the organization.
Times are certainly changing here in the mountains; Professionals moving to ski towns for their careers.
After leaving town for less than a week, I came back to a completely different colored landscape. It is now officially autumn in Jackson Hole.
How important is finding inner peace, and is it possible that a “place” may lead you to it?
Just read about this new program at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado ...
The truth is, not everyone in a ski resort town is a millionaire, and for those of us who are not, I would not say that we are truly suffering either. Personally speaking, I can think of quite a few scenarios that would be worse than living in an expensive ski town, but then again … I really do love the mountains.
Just another festive day in the town of Jackson, Wyoming with “Chefs on the Square” and the “Takin it to the Streets” art fair featuring the many talented local artists in this valley. Definitely a success … everyone looked like they were having a great time. I attempted to capture this with a photo, but will obviously have to work on my photography skills. Anyway, as you can probably tell by now, ski towns love to host many outdoor events. And why not? Isn’t that why people come to the mountains … to spend as much time as possible enjoying the great outdoors?
It is hard to believe that there are so many employment websites out there these days. Where to even start? If you have found your way here to MountainJobs.com, you are most likely looking for a “mountain job”. I like to keep things simple.
Every now and then you start to think about how great it would be to just be … somewhere else. Nothing wrong with exploring your options, but sometimes even the thought of moving can be overwhelming.
