It's Been A While

07/24/2008 9:00 Mountain Time

Moving, Vacation, Summertime.

These are busy times in Park City. Locals have abundant options:

Playing, like our friend Cam below - he is putting in ont the Payette River

Listening to music: Check out the Mountain Town Stages calendar

Yardwork - there won't be any pictures of me in my wife beater pulling weeds out of a lawn gone brown due to our rainless summer

Houseparties and BBQ's - no pictures of me with Sangria and veggie burgers

Working a real job - no pictures of my cubicle either, although the cubicle has helped to spring

Into the Markets, LLC

Working the Locals Have More Fun gig. Which is turning out to be quite the busy summer:

Park Silly Sunday Market - August 17th and 31st

MAGIC in Viva las Vegas!! (the premier sourcing show for the apparel industry)

OUTDOOR RETAILER DEBUT - August 8th - 11th - THE LOCALS INDUSTRY DEBUT!!!!!!

Regardless of what you choose to do, make a pledge to do something positive:

-watering your lawns early in the morning or late in the evening

--even better, figuring out an irrigation system

-carpooling

--even better riding your bike more

--sucking it up and trading in the truck for a car

What do you thinkg are other initiatives that you can do that can positively impact your environment and community?

Have fun,

Head Local

Fields Of Gold

06/25/2008 10:15 Mountain Time

Fields of Gold relates to the upper Jeremy Ranch mountain biking trail system. Here, on the north east side where the Preserve Connector trail starts to head from Jeremy into the Preserve is where there is an ABUNDANCE of yellow wildflowers. Every once in a while you will see BRIGHT red flowers and an occasional blue/purple. But yellow dominates. Absolutely beautiful!

While riding on Sunday around 16:30, I ran into all of 5 people. A great, lazy, Sunday afternoon spin with no one around. This will all change as the snowmelt is at its peak and the ski hills open up for summer activities. The weather is beautiful (an occasional rain would be nice to quell wildfire risk).

"Locals" summer activities are also in full swing. Mountain Town Stages (Making the Mountains Swing) is in full glory with multiple stages around town. Free music, mountains, cocktails, friends. What could be better than that on a Wednesday evening?

Speaking of Wednesday evening, Locals Have More Fun - An Environmentally Cool Company has a busy week:

06/29 Park Silly - Embrace the Madness on Main Street
07/02 Deer Valley Mountain Town Stages
07/04 July 4th at Miner's Park

Locals tip: Locals will have hoodies for men and women!!!

Have a great holiday!
