I’ve always been in awe of anyone that decorates their home to the extreme for the holidays. The Internet is filled with people and their impressive Christmas decorations. I remember in the early 2000s when a guy first synched all his lights up to music and the world was wowed by the hard work it […]
There are people that will always tell you how dangerous something is as if it’s the most dangerous thing ever. In actuality it’s just another everyday thing that you could get injured doing or even worse. My response has always been that you can get hurt “just getting out of bed”. In some cases you […]
There aren’t as many old farm homes out there with the original root cellar in them. Most have been renovated to add space to a home or have been filled in. The house I grew up in had one that became part of our basement game room. Usually these were used to store canned goods […]
Sometimes quick thinking can keep a disaster from turning into an insurmountable loss. A Chisago County police officer in Minnesota couldn’t stop a car fire at a rural home. He tries to use a fire extinguisher to stop it with no luck. He asks the owner if he has a tow strap and uses his […]
The price of homes that last year has been astounding. I’ve heard of homes being sold for more than double what they would normally be worth in the current market.

Have you seen the movie “Up!” from Disney? No? That’s a shame. It is a beautiful movie that runs the gamut of emotions from start to finish. It’s a movie for kids, but adults can watch it alone and feel the swell in their hearts when it tugs at their strings, and laugh out loud […]
OK, I’m over 40 and my kids are grown so I do what everyone else my age does and that is peruse Zillow. Sometimes to find weird or cool houses, but mostly to look at local listings we can’t afford and send them to my wife with sayings like, “Look at this piece of crap.” […]
Not everyone puts up wainscoting. Not everyone likes wallpaper. Not everyone wants only neutral colors in every room. This home owner definitely isn’t doing what most people do. The housing market is hot right now and a gentleman in New Mexico figures it’s best to sell while the getting is good. You just have to […]
