The wife and I moved here in May of 2001. Throughout my career I have moved 14 times since college. Of all the wonderfull places we have lived there is no place like Park City. We came here to open Glenwild Golf Club and Spa, a wonderful, beautiful golf community. Golf Digest has rated the Tom Fazio Golf Course the best in Utah every year since it opened. After my job was finsihed at Glenwild we simply decided this is where we want ot live and we enjoyed it too much here. Now I also need to tell you that my children and grandchildren are here which also played in our decision. So of course besides family here is why we love it here.
First of all the sheer beauty of the mountains and landscape. I tell everyone that I live and work inside a postcard. I don't care what season it is, I love it...shoot I even love the Muddy Season (spring). Living here makes you want to be more healthy...wherever you go you see people enjoying the outdoors. Even if you haven't done much exercise in the past...you will WANT to start a new activity or rekindle an old one. As a matter of fact my wife has taken up hiking which she never did before moving here and in the winter we used to cross country ski (21 years ago when we lived in Michigan)...I should also admit that I have taken up hiking these mountains with Jackson our 1 year old German Shepard. I used to do the eclipical machines for 30-45 minutes however I enjoy the hike with Jackson...outside in the Aspens on any one of the many trails in and around Park City. I bet no matter where you live in Park City you could walk/hike to a trail right from your home.
Where ever you go in Park City and the surrounding communities it is just awesome. You will find that your life is just less stressful here. Now I am no shrink or anything like that but how can you not relax in this atmosphere. Where i live (like most homeowners) I wake up, make a pot of coffee and then just enjoy the coffee on my porch looking at Pine Trees and Mountains...just as if I was on vacation.
You will find that the people here are really friendly and I believe that is because of everyone enjoying where they live, the stress reduced lifestyle.
In upcoming blogs I will tell you where our favorite breakfast and lunch establishments are...as well as dinner. We will discuss the "Wine Strolls" on Main Street, the Silly Market on Sunday mornings, hiking trails, motorcycle rides and many other subjects...all to do with why we live here and why you should too.
If you have any question about living in Park City, pls post them here and I will do my very best to get you the honest answer and probably my take on it also...so for now...enjoy the day...
