Getting Better

I have lived in Pueblo for 3 years now and the city has only gotten better, in my opinion. My husband still drives to Springs for work, but that is not unusual. I have three children (ages 7,4,2) and the recreation for them is great. There is the Children's Museum, Pueblo Zoo, a lot of parks, city pools, and the Pueblo Reservoir. Plus Pueblo is only a 30 minutes away from the San Isabel National Forest and the Wet Mountains.
I have had no problems with the schools my children attend. The teachers are always very helpful and have a genuine interest in the kids education. The school district recently hired a new administrator who wants to make Pueblo City Schools a world class institution, and the plans are already in motion.
Pueblo has several festivals, inlcuding the Chile and Frijole, State Fair, and the B Street Festival just to name a few. It is a slow-paced town and there stills seems to be a "old boy's club" mentality, but from my perspective things are continuing to get better all the time.
