We had a fantastic weekend in Door County! People everywhere. We had an incredible Winter Festival in Fish Creek. Oh, sure, it was about forty, we had one inch of (melting) snow, but people were comfortable and they had fun. Fireworks, my much-touted "Wheel of Meat", and Human Foosball....it was another great festival. And it was bigger than last year, with free trolly rides, and I hope it grows even more next year. The spill-over carried into Sister Bay for the dinner hour, and the Bowl, JJ's and Husby's were BUSY. Al Johnson's parking lot was packed when I drove by yesterday morning, too. I hope everyone had a FANTASTIC weekend.

This is a Sister Bay week for me. I have a lot of showings, and a LOT of follow-ups on customers or clients who have been on the fence. I expect a contract back today, and I need to be showing in the next hour.

Alas, I have enjoyed this warms spell (I swear our grass is getting green again) but it's supposed to be (properly) back in the teens by the weekend. Make it a great week!

Winterfest Update---our parade went through, people are stopping in for real estate guides, and it is warm! The thermometer only says 25 (high of 37 predicted) but the beautiful sun and blue sky makes it seem much warmer.

I had a great week showing property; have a few contracts to draft, and other items on the agenda today. Make it a great weekend! Fireworks in Fish Creek tonight!
