It definitely was the year of the family and 2016 looks just as good, if not better!

Wayne- wow, you did have a busy 2015 and from what I see 2016 will be even busier... all good and all family!   Florida will miss you, but being close to family when you can is important.

Good morning Wayne.  It just so happens July 23rd is my birthday..  Moving from Sarasota to Chicago is one hell of a move.  Too cold for me.  Will you still deal in real estate when you move?

You encourage me. I would love to pick up and move when I feel like doing something different. But I'm a stick in the mud about that.
