Log cabins bring memories of simpler times here in the West. Here’s my brief video introduction to inspecting them. If you have a cabin, it’s probably a good idea to have its structure inspected … it can deteriorate in the weather surprisingly quickly …

to a friend...

A friend of mine died suddenly a week ago.  Tom’s hawaiian shirts, sense of humor, and dedication to God are missed by many people.  I just want to make this simple tribute to him, and to the great example he set for so many of us.

As spring moves into summer, the aspens start to leaf out.  Seen against the deep blue sky, they appear to be stretching higher and higher. As spring moves into summer, the aspens start to leaf out.  Seen against the deep blue sky, they appear to be stretching higher and higher.

At a recent inspection I lifted the lid to check the propane tank.  And there were five baby birds.  I figured they were crows, based on the grown bird sitting on the roof nearby and screeching at me.  Boy, they looked hungry!

"The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated."

That’s what Mark Twain said, and it kind of applies to me, too. A Realtor friend told me that he heard I was retiring.  Well, the short answer is No.  Sometimes I think it would be fun to live the retired life.  But then I remember that I still have six mouths to feed at home.  And I still have a house payment.  Oh, and I suppose the utility companies would like to hear from me each month.
But you know, I don’t really want to retire yet.  I really enjoy what I’m doing.  I get a kick out of seeing all the different types of properties we have here in southern Colorado.  And I sure enjoy helping people figure out what they need to do to a house to make it into their dream home.

So, the rumors of my retirement have been greatly exaggerated.
