Victor City Mural Approved — Fundraising Under Way

Victor City Mural Working Comp

When I spent three months in Teton Village in 2015, I met former Victor mayor, Scott Fitzgerald, at a Silicon Couloir meeting. He described Victor, Idaho (population 2,088) with such enthusiasm, I was sold, and moved to Teton Valley with my family in March of 2016.

It took one round of golf with the current Victor Mayor Jeff Potter, to inspire civic involvement… which lead to my role in the Victor Placemakers Committee, and eventual board seat on the Victor Urban Renewal Agency.  While collectively discussing public art possibilities, another former mayor, Zachary Smith, came up with the brilliant idea to paint the stage in Victor City Park. With the help of my fellow Placemakers — Liv Goodale, Erin Gaffney and Molly Absolon… we built a mural proposal from the ground up… which was approved by City Council last week!

Road Trip! Minnetonka To Victor, Idaho With Greg McMahon

Welcome To Victor Idaho

2015 was Voltron. Vega was born in February. One month later we found ourselves in Exuma, and in July, we left Manhattan for good. The nomadic lifestyle was good to us… and, in fact, it was during our stay in Teton Village that we decided to move to ‘The End Of The Trail’.

Here’s what went down on the road (NSFW, just kidding, it’s very safe).
