Spring has all of us panting like dogs! This is generally a really busy time of year because Northerners come out of winter (even a mild one) running toward summer and all the promises it holds in their minds. Lawns and gardens need attention, boats and docks reunite with the water again, deck furniture is …
One of our agents (Tom!) has a daughter living in Japan with her husband right now. She’s been capturing scenes of life in Japan with her camera and it’s been fascinating to follow. She shared this photo of a CENTURY 21 Office with us. It’s very small, but offers a lot of visual stimulation – which …
In case you hadn’t noticed all the warning signs posted at all entry points to the area, we’re under an emergency burning ban, including campfires and smoking outdoors.

This winter we were able to witness a carping operation on Clam Lake. It was fascinating and I think the photos I’ve posted below tell a lot of the story. Although it’s hard to translate the whole picture without sharing the smell, but count yourself lucky on that one! Clam Lake has been overcome …
We just returned from the CENTURY 21 Global Conference in New Orleans. What a great company! There were so many things offered, there just wasn’t enough time to take it all in.
