Summer in Jackson

Summer time is hear for real now in Jackson. The tourists have again taken over the town. Jackson in the summer attracts a different breed of tourist however. Gone are the ski enthusiasts. Now the town is dominated by families and old people. Which are as you should know, the most annoying of all tourists. Watching families stumble around town staring in wide-eyed wonder at Jackson's sights, makes me feel sorry for those people. They no doubt, live in some suburb of some large city. Where the houses are all close together and all the lawns are perfectly cut and green. Then they come here and think its crazy that anyone actually lives in Jackson. I can't wait untill they leave. I make my money from tourists, but I also get pretty sick of them. Then there's the old people. Most of them are from the south and they come here 'cause they think it will take them back to a simpler time when rodeos were the main attraction and folks were decent to each other. Then they get here and realize a large percentage of the people who work here are from Mexico, and that straight pisses some old people off. Then they meet the Eastern Europeans who are the summer time seasonal workers. Many don't understand basic english, but they get jobs 'cause the town is desperate for workers. A lot of people don't realize that Jackson is just like any resort town. It may be pretty isolated, but the town still runs off of foreign employees. Whatever, I'll take their money, then blow it all on ski gear for this winter. Booyah!
