Naturally Realtors are in a position to hook their clients up with contractors, lenders or moving companies, but more often than not, we help and connect people in all kinds of other situations, too. We work with so many different entities that we're the perfect people to create connections.
I was recently able to match a seller who had to pack up her household goods, with buyers, who just moved in and had a garage full of boxes to get rid of.
On another occasion I was able to direct a friend of a friend, looking for a rental home, to one of my military clients, who needed to rent her home because they were being relocated by the Army.
Another client who was moving here with three horses found a horse transport through one of my horse property sellers I introduced her to. A new-in- town client who didn't know anybody, met some of my friends at my Christmas party, who she now plays tennis with.
When a buyer mentioned that he really liked a particular gated community that currently had no listings on the market, I called one of my previous clients in that community, who was able to tell us of a neighbor who had plans to put his home on the market in the near future.
As Realtors we know our community and we're natural match makers. I haven't actually arranged a romantic match yet, but I'm sure that will happen eventually. It's a great job!

Although the Fourth of July is celebrated as America's birthday, the birthday of the American flag was on June 14th, 1777. Each year the anniversary of the official adoption of The Stars and Stripes is observed as Flag Day.
Every year a celebration of Flag Day is held at the Lacey, WA flag pavilion. The event is hosted by the Thurston County Realtors' Association and supported by local veterans associations, the local fire and police department.
As an immigrant the US flag holds a special place in my heart. I remember receiving a small flag at my swearing-in ceremony after becoming a fresh US citizen. The Stars and Stripes is a powerful symbol that unites people from all different backgrounds. On Flag Day, it's an impressive sight to see the Stars and Stripes suspended from the ladders of the fire trucks and waving against the blue sky, accompanied by a riffle salute.

Did you know that the Olympia Farmers' Market is the second largest farmers' market in the State of Washington, second only after Pike Place Market?
It not only offers local quality organic produce, meats, herbs, clams & oysters, breads & pastries, fresh dairy products, plants and flowers, but also hand crafted gifts, a variety of food concessions and live entertainment. The on-site snow cone stand and the balloon artist are a perennial favorite with kids.

I love the intermingled food aromas of grilled Bavarian sausages, Indian curry and crab cakes. For visitors wanting a respite from the crowds, there is a serene garden providing benches and views of a pond.

The market is open from April until December, so come down and visit.

There's a difference between a home that freakishly sticks out and makes you shake your head every time you drive by, and a whimsical home with a little bit of an attitude. I love the homes with an attitude. The freaks, not so much. I feel really sorry for the neighbors who have to live next to the yellow house with the purple polka dots that looks like it has the measles.
Olympia is a little bit of an eccentric town, a uniqueness that's reflected in some of the local homes.

Sustainable, "green" landscaping and gardening is not a difficult undertaking. Just a few different approaches, or changes in habit will help preserve our environment.
