Schizophrenic is the word our pastor used to describe our weather this weekend. As a Texan who now calls the Springs home, he had not yet experienced Rocky Mountain springtime, "when summer and winter collide". It was a record 73 degrees here a yesterday, but it is 25 and snowing at the moment.

I showed a lot of property in the 600's this week, and I thought I would share a couple of observations. While there are a lot of nice homes out there, the truth is that they vary tremendously in terms of the combined package of lot, location, size and quality. Some of the nicest settings have a little drive to offset that. Some of the nicest amenities with the most convenient locations, come without a decent lot. Some of the largest floor plans came without quality in some key areas.

One of the homes I showed is pictured above. At $659,900, it happens to have an exceptional 5 acre treed lot that is zoned for horses, has 3 good sized outbuildings, is located in the close in portion of school district 20, and at around 5,000 square feet is quite large, with lots of rooms for just about everything.
