Going the Distance....

This charming fellow hangs on my wall in the office. Every morning I walk in, and there he is to greet me! I smile every time! A simple gesture from a client that means the world to me! We get caught up some times in the bigger things in life.....large gifts, things we own, things we accomplish, but it is truly the small things that give us all the pleasure in the world!
The people who gave me the bear emailed me one day. We had never met or spoken before. They said they saw a piece of property - an acreage, and wondered if I was willing to represent them in the purchase process. First I said I wanted to go see the property so I knew what I was negotiating over. So out I went - tried to find lot lines, looked at the terrain and the neighborhood. I then called them and told them what I had done. In return, they wanted to come see the property again, with me. So out we went and walked, climbed, hiked and stepped in moose leavings...did I mention the property was 28 acres??
The end result is that they are very happy with their purchase, they couldn't believe I was willing to go out in the bush with them, and I got this token to remember them by. The backpack is perfect! And the bear represents a carved bear that was on the property. 
Now it is confession time....walking through the bush is not a hardship for me. Just give me an excuse! Every time I see this guy on my wall I wish I was back out there! Never been to the Highlands?? Oh my goodness you have to come! Haliburton Highlands is stunning and loaded with fun! See you out there one day!
