One of my favorite subjects in school was history. This past week I went on a listing appointment and this listing had a unique feature that was a direct result of events that shaped the later half of the 20th Century. It had a full blown three room bomb shelter with electricity! It was located in Bellevue near Offutt AFB which at the time of the cold war was the HQ for the Strategic Air Command.
Currently, the bomb shelter has been sealed shut. I was told it had three rooms, electrictiy and a reinforced concrete roof that is three feet thick! This would make a cool get away, tornado shelter or a "fort" for a ten year old!
Here are a few photos


Stay tuned,

While the economy is causing Microsoft to temporarily put the brakes on construction of a data center in West Des Moines, Yahoo is proceeding with its plans for a data center in the Omaha area. It will build a data center at 109th and Giles Road in La Vista in the building that used to be Tender Heart Treasures. Yahoo also has plans to build a data center in Council Bluffs.
The project halted by Microsoft was a $600 million venture. The poor economy has resulted in many competitors delaying expansion projects.

When you are moving across town or across the nation you should work with a real estate agent that has knowledge about the different areas. Plus agents need to know who the point of contacts are so they can provide the buyers a list of people they may want to talk to or visit with if they have questions about an area. After 21 years in real estate I find buyers are not informed about the difference between being in a subdivision that is in a SID and a subdivision that is in the city.
Clients that relocate often, do not realize they need to interview agents that are going to assist them in one of their most important investments that affects the whole family. I believe when they are relocating they should be able to talk to 2 or 3 agents. The person relocating needs to know the agent will work for them so when they become a seller they know they had a knowledgable real estate agent. I have assisted hundreds of military families relocating to Offutt AFB plus many families that work for large corporations.

Amid mixed feelings, Dr. Jack's officially opened a new tattoo parlor in downtown Papillion on January 14, 2009. Mayor Blinn was present for the ribbon cutting ceremony. Many Papillion residents objected to the idea of a tattoo shop in Papillion fearing it will mar the city's clean-cut, small town image and will be a negative attraction for the local youth. The objectors noted that the store is located just a few blocks from the junior high. At today's ceremony some people expressed the opinion that in a year the big flurry of concern will be forgotten.
