After the winter comes SPRING, usually! This year it was skipped, we went from snow to summer. The wildflowers are gorgeous after our very WET winter, not many blossoms on the lilacs as they were hit by frost, ditto for the dogwoods at OUR elevation, but the lupine are glorious and I would guess that the SUMMER wildflowers will be as well!
The swimming pool at The Rivers Resort has NEVER opened this late; we missed Father's Day, and certainly missed Memorial Day!! The government-required retrofits, the paint that had to be applied at above 50 degrees, the tile that had delaminated from three places had to be reattached, grouted, and sealed. NOW the new-three-years-ago heater has a malfunction; the water is 54 degrees warmed by Mr. Sun only, since we filled it last week when it was the temperature of "snow melt" i.e. 42 degrees! It only takes a couple of days once that new heater gets going. So I have been praying for "divine intervention!" The local pool guy is checking to see which part we need, and I certainly HOPE that he has it in stock!! THAT would be an answer to my prayers.
So would a couple of new listings or a couple of buyers ready to put their names on the dotted line ... keep me in mind for your Real Estate needs. We get the job done and the phone rings in my pocket wherever I am!!

SUMMER??
Oh where, oh where has our SUMMER gone? Oh where, oh where can it be?
We've cleaned all the decks, put table cloths on, even painted the pool to be filled.
THEN IT BLEW and it HAILED and we knew summer'd FAILED. BRRRR!
But we all know that if you don't care for the weather today, you must just be patient, it too will change. Those sun spots have a way of traveling all this way and "messin' with us!" We have plenty of water in the lakes and the river, the fish have been planted and all the cabins have had their Spring Cleaning and are ready for you. Call 1800.514.6777 if you need to get away from it all and replenish your spirit at THE RIVERS RESORT.
On another note! The National Association of REALTORS is advertising this SATURDAY the 4th of June as OPEN HOUSE DAY!! Yours truly will be having not one, not two, but THREE OPEN HOUSES that day. HOPE to see you at one of them - Tinnin Road off Wards Ferry Rd in Sonora from 10-noon, Tanager Drive in Strawberry from 2 - 4 and home base - UNIT #1 at The Rivers Resort from 4 - 6 PM. I guess that I had better pack a lunch!! Cookies will be available and some hot cider!! Let me know if those hours / that day doesn't work for you and we will make other arrangements to show you property
