pierce county: A Spring Trip to Coeur d' Alene, Idaho
- 06/04/09 04:02 AM
So we planned on hitting the road early Saturday morning to ensure some water time on Lake Coeur d' Alene by the afternoon, the wakeboard legs were itchin' for sure!

We actually hit the road about 12:30 and with all the stops we pulled in at almost 8:00! However, when we did, we knew it was all okay. Our … (3 comments)

- 04/30/08 04:00 AM
So I'm a few days out of the Lead Generation class with Jack Miller, Coach Extrodinaire from Keller Williams, MAPS and I must say how ...whats the right word...inspiring, encouraging, exciting, overwhelming,?
