carson valley homes: Wordless Wednesday Offering ... Carson Valley - 07/08/09 09:04 AM
Wordless Wednesday Offering  ... Carson Valley
Our brother-in-law is a wonderful artist.  This is another example of his beautiful work show casing our wonderful Carson Valley.  Last week we featured his painting  Sierra Nevadas.  Enjoy!
 
 
Carson Valley
The Carson Valley in Northern Nevada has the drama of light and shadow in all seasons. The Sierra Nevada range rises straight up from the valley floor. I liked the brightness of the cottonwood trees and desert Rabbitbrush up against the blue-purple mountains on this fall day.

An agent will do everything she can to protect your assets, but if you have a new agent and a thief that has been a thief for 20 years - who has more experience?  Remove the temptation - put it away.  After all, they aren't buying your jewelry - they are supposed to be buying your house.  You are moving anyway... pack some of your special things a bit early to play it safe.  You'll appreciate them more when you unpack at your new house ... and you'll still have them. Well priced homes are selling these days so your security … (6 comments)
