Winter Blah's

Winter seems to be shorter this year (oops, am I speaking too soon?). As Marilyn and I gear up for The Toronto Cottage Life Show in March, we are pouring over our notes, reconnecting with clients, planning our Spring, and getting the word out to get cottages priced now so they can be advertised at the Show. Time has flown by but we are excited for the new season. Winter is a quiet time for making sales, but a wonderful and busy time to organize, reconnect, strengthen our education and improve on systems. You have to be constantly improving and learning in real estate. I will be sad to see Winter go though, it is great to see the snowmobilers whizzing by and enjoying the outdoors, the visitors walking the streets with their Sir Sam's Ski Hill passes and their cross country ski trail passes hanging from their coats, and to smell the fresh crispness of Winter air - there is nothing like it! I don't mind all the dull, grey-brown trees without their leaves because they provide a wonderful contrast to the sparkling white snow. Today the sky seems more blue than usual, and it is definitely a day to enjoy some of that fresh air! But alas, I have to work. Perhaps after work I will get to go for a leisurely walk - Winter will soon be over! I hope that the people reading this are taking the time to enjoy what nature is offering before it is gone. Life is short - don't let the seasons pass you by! There are 4 of them!
