I then went to COCC and started teaching for La Pine Head Start ( I have an endless amount of patients:)). I'm married to Bruce and we have a 14 year old daughter Samantha who attends La Pine middle School. She is a active 4-H member and participates in the Horse and Swine projects. I and another parent have been the horse leaders and have been active parents for the last 4 years. I enjoy being a 4-H leader here in La Pine and representing Deschutes County. It's great to see the our members be so dedicated and focused and for us to be able to watch them grow and achieve there goals.

I was ready for a new adventure in life and started studying for my Real Estate Licenses and achieved that goal. My patients has made my Real Estate Business grow here in Central Oregon. While growing up I had many opportunities to see the process of Real Estate from buying land and developing the property to selling your investment. My father is a architect here in Beautiful Central Oregon and he has gave me great tools for starting my business. I'm have a great time with my new career and finding and learning so much about myself.

Have Great Day.

Central Oregon is a place of beauty and an area that is often shared with a wide variety of wild life. Most of the wild life in Central Oregon is harmless and beautiful to look at, enjoyed by all and often the talk around the water cooler. Who saw a heard of elk, or a deer crossing the road and so on?

Today reality set in for some, a home I sold about 2 years ago came into the news. The home owners live in this cute little home with their children and a dog. They started their day as they typically do. One of the kids went to the back door and let out the family dog, turned to go put on his jacket and go play with the dog.

Dad apparently looked out the door or window prior to the child going out to see a cougar chasing the dog. The homeowner was able to get the dog in the home before it was injured and called 911. The sheriffs that responded called Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife who felt putting the animal down was the best resolution. It was daylight, in a neighborhood of families and tracking or trapping the animal could lead to a dangerous situation for children getting on and off school buses.

Although, this is not an everyday occurrence, it does happen. No matter how long you have lived in Central Oregon, it is a good idea to always respect the wild life and keep a safe distance. If you find your self in a situation similar to this one, please call the authorities and let them deal with it.

Thinking of moving to La Pine - what a great idea! La Pine is a small city in fact it is one of the most recently formed cities in Oregon. Located just 30 miles south of Bend, Lapine offers an easy commute to a larger city and a lot of great outdoor activities. Some people only have the opportunity to do while on vacation, here you can enjoy the outdoors year around.

One of the biggest attractions to home buyers looking in the LaPine area is space. Lapine may be a city, but the actual city is small in comparison to the area referred to as La Pine. Most of the homes for sale in what is called La Pine are actually outside the city limits and are generally on lots of about an acre.

A few of the great attractions of La Pine are; Newberry National Monument, Mt. Bachelor, The Big Deschutes River, North Twin and South Twin Lakes and Crane Prairie and more than I will list here. Central Oregon is more than real estate it is a lifestyle. A lifestyle that few have the opportunity to enjoy everyday, are you ready to be one of those lucky few?

La pine has many choices in real estate, along with a huge price range. LaPine offers everything from the starter home to the multi-million dollar riverfront with Mountain View home.
