Incline Village- Real Estate and local news

Spring has arrived , well almost, give it a little more time before you start changing out the closet.  We have had our share of teaser days, you know what I mean …One day the beach parking lot is full and the volleyball courts are in full swing, barbecue is in the air and summer feels oh so close. Only to awake the next day to snow covered lawns and we all reluctantly pull on long pants, covering up our tan lines and donning  heavy jackets.

You know its spring when - bags of pine needles fill the street for pick up- Bears are making appearances throughout town- the birds are building nests- kids go to school with sun burns- people are wearing bright colors -  lawns are visible and the trees have buds- die hard skiers are on crutches or wearing slings.

I showed property in the Upper Tyner subdivision  at an elevation of 6800 ft , the snow is still 5 feet deep. This is one reason sellers  wait to put their homes on in May when most of the snow is melted.

I recently purchased a video camera to capture and share special hiking trails and document local insider information.

I will be off looking at colleges with my daughter next week, Colorado and Arizona (I’m voting for the warm state my other daughter is going to ASU) but we’ll see.
