I love the Bitterroot

After the crazy election season and a lot of property rights fights, I am happy to say we were successful in our own little piece of politics. So, getting volunteers to agree which side of the sidewalk to get signatures on is not easy. And deciding how many friends I will lose after the election is over is not fun. Or, do I really want another story in the paper that mentions my name and usually not favorably? These are the pitfalls of local politics. But after a long campaign, we were grateful to win and grateful the whole fight was over.
So, we decided to have a dinner for all the volunteers to say thank you for all their hard work. It was sweet to see those that have put their lives on hold to assist you in an important cause. It is refreshing to rub shoulders with those that stand by their convictions, and I must say how proud I am of my new friends. In a time when every battle seems uphill, I am proud to live in the Bitterroot Valley.
If there is ever a time that you want to remember what a blessed person you are, just look at the Mountain range, take a breath of cold air, walk your dogs by the river and remember that you live in a treasure, not only a treasure of nature but also a treasure of individuals.

Not very good at blogging

Well obviously I am just too busy to blog. The market in Hamilton has really picked up and everyone is busy, busy , busy. It often surprises me of the different personalities in real estate. There is everything from the very quirky to the passive. Some that are using the same tools since 1970 and others that are ready to launch into 2020. I am closer but not quite the latter.

Hamilton is really great. The farmers market has started again and paints a clear picture of the perfect small town. Bitterroot Resort is looking for investors and developers to get its international Ski Resort off the ground.

The management for the resort is world class. With experience at Vail and Jackson Hole, when this resort is developed it will rival the best resorts in the world. All in our beautiful Bitterroot Valley.

The river is high and fast and sadly we lost a local guide last week. Dave Dedmon was very kind and down to earth. Though I did not know him as well, I did know his wife. And to think of her without her love, breaks my heart.

To those that visit our beautiful mountain paradise, when taking in the sites please think of those that died to live and play here.

I hope that life meets you with the sun at your back and love in your eyes.
