I remember sitting here last year writing my Uno de Juno blog... I invented it (or so I thought) because of a trip to Mexico I took a couple years ago on Cinco de Mayo. I was speaking with our cab driver (as best as I could being uni-lingual), and he told me essentially that the majority of Mexicans don't really celebrate the holiday. I figured if Americans can go so crazy for a Mexican holiday that really isn't... I can invent my own. But if you google Uno de Juno, there are only a few references to the "holiday" and even wikipedia deleted presumably a bogus page devoted to Uno de Juno. Oh well, so much for original thought, but I'm celebrating today by showing two different buyers homes :0).
Real estate, has been hopping. You may have noticed I skipped May altogether... or maybe not, consider it my gift of vacation to you. It has been extremely busy in these parts, best first half of a year i've had in the last 3. Prices are still down, but homes priced according to market and that are in good condition, move quickly. Rates are great still, it is still a great time to buy... just be ready to pull the trigger on an offer when we walk into the perfect home, or someone else will. We haven't seen that dynamic in a couple years either.
The ligers are off to a great start, we have won 3 of our first 4 games, still can't get past our nemesis team. Golf is in full swing and I'm actually starting to play respectably (knock on wood) this year. Rain must be my switch. Kellys playing in a league this year as well, but between rain and travel, she has only been out once this year. Maybe tonight. Haven't had the motorcycles out much, tough to ride when all you do is hydroplane.
Jessy and Anthony are working on getting their first home in preparation for baby number 1. Hopefully they'll close and be moved in by the end of June. Not sure if she wants me to broadcast this, but grandbaby number 5 is going to be a girl. Bella is sooo happy.
Dave, Lauren and the tribe are great. Still can't tell the twins apart, I had it down pat when they were new, but not at all for me these days... I just refer to them as the twins, I figure I'll just ask them who they are when they get old enough to tell me. Austin is a complete hoot right now. He stepped out of babyhood to all entertaining boy. Bella just takes it all in stride, there's a lot of dudes around her, she really seems to enjoy spending the night with G-diddy and MeMa for some reason.
Well that's all for now, need to get out there and celebrate this grand holiday. As always, I truly appreciate your referrals. Without them, a Realtor has nothing.
