mark don mcinnes: 'April Showers Bring...' - Sandpoint North Idaho
- 04/29/25 10:48 AM
As we transition from April to May this week. I thought this photo perfect for the ole saying 'April Showers bring May Flowers'. With rain today and dark skies these beautiful blooms at the Sandpoint Realty Office begged to be shared. Sandpoint North Idaho is so lush this time of year. Fresh blooms so vibrant, rains keeping everything clean and fresh. In my opinion there is no 'bad season' or month for North Idaho but some days certainly stand out from others. Enjoy the transition North Idaho. Be safe, stay healthy!

Sandpoint Realty 'Monday Motivation' should help us all keep moving as we near the end of 4 months into this year. Incredible I know I often forget that success is not found overnight, no matter where you are looking for it. Marriage, relationship, personal endeavors, business. Probably the best examples being sports related. We don't run a marathon by starting with a 20 or 30 mile run to get in shape. Small increments improved upon weekly. We don't bench press 200 pounds immediately. Working consistently towards that goal is how it is achieved. Make it a productive week ahead North Idaho. Be safe, stay (11 comments)

Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' revisits a previous site, but with a new twist. We have seen this USA Flag location before at 5th Avenue Car Wash in Sandpoint Idaho, and much needed with the recent rains. But, I enjoyed the contrast in colors with the Turner Pro Wraps car sitting directly under our 'Star and Stripes'.
Enjoy the weekend North Idaho. Be safe, stay healthy. 'Experience the Difference' in working with a full time Professional Sandpoint Realty REALTOR® Your wants and needs will always be my priorities.

Sandpoint Realty 'Thursday Thought' was found in 'April Shower' quotes but fits quite well year round. With spring finally upon us in earnest a fresh new feeling is abound. Blue skies, green grass, new blooms, buds yet to yield their beauty. Make it a great rest of the week and weekend North Idaho. Be safe, stay healthy.

Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' reminds us that it is that wonderful time of year again. Liberty Tax in Coeur D'Alene Idaho normally has someone by the flags dressed as Statue of Liberty to help draw attention. I was unfortunate in my timing in driving by on this particular day. Point is made with the sign and USA Flags though. Thank you North Idaho Business for proudly flying our 'Stars and Stripes'. Make it a good weekend North Idaho. Be safe, stay healthy!

Sandpoint Realty 'Thursday Thought' is oh so true, especially in North Idaho. As seen with the pics below we enjoy a wide variety of North Idaho unpredictable weather in April along with big changes in temperatures to go along with it. Today supposed to be mid 60's and next couple of days will drop back down to night time freezing. Gots to be bringing the summer plants in at night. lol Make it a good weekend North Idaho. Be safe, Stay Healthy!

Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' is the first for April, and 2nd quarter. Our usual North Idaho battle is going on between winter and spring weather but makes a nice back drop for these nicely framed USA Flags. Logging is a major part of North Idaho economy. These flags found at the entrance to LaClede Mill, part of the Idaho Forest Group. Impressive display overall, with a pond at the base I was unable to show and properly show off the 'Stars & Stripes'. Thank you Idaho business, Idaho Forest Group, for proudly showing off 'Ole Glory' in such a (8 comments)

Sandpoint Realty 'Thursday Thought' does give us something to think about. This puts me in mind of the ole adage. Ask a teenager while they still know 'Everything'. Yeppir, the more we learn the more we realize how little we know. Make it a productive week North Idaho. Be safe, stay healthy.

Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' has an extra treat for us starting this week. It seems of late we can not take enough classes, sit in on webinars, or read articles to keep up with all that is going on in the Real Estate world. A recent class in Coeur D' Alene Idaho was hosted by Flying S Title and of course I was compelled to take the photo. Thank you Flying S Title for proudly flying our Stars & Stripes. And this having been the final Friday of the 1st quarter I thought it would be a good time to kick off a (7 comments)

Thought with March Madness starting with Sweet 16 today we might enjoy Sandpoint Realty 'Thursday Thought' reflecting on words from one of the great coaches. Sports are so much about life in general, as this quote easily demonstrates. How can one be disappointed with themselves, in any facet of life, if they have given 100% of themselves?

Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' is set with the snow, from the last storm, of which is now disappearing rapidly. With the Sandpoint Idaho warmer temps, low 50's mid day, the snow is quickly moving on. I thought this last look at the USA Flag flying at the chaparral ranch gate with the snow appropriate. The worn wood fencing, horns and wagon wheels gives it a nice feel. Found in very popular Selle Valley in Sandpoint Idaho this photo will go in the file along with many other Selle Valley Residents flying our 'Stars and Stripes'.

Sandpoint Realty 'Thursday Thought' brings us to the end of February, but does not mean this past month's quotes should be set aside the rest of the year. I really like this. We all know we can not physically be in two different places at the same time. Why then would our hearts and minds be any different. The choice then becomes ours as to what direction our hearts, and minds, want to take. Focus on what we do not have? Or focus on all that we do have? The choice not always easy and clear, but I doubt any of us would argue (10 comments)

Sandpoint Realty 'Monday Motivation' continues with February theme of appreciation. A simple reminder for us all, no matter our age. No matter how we want to look at it, we actually only have 'today' to live. Yesterday's are gone, tomorrows but a distant promise. Enjoy your day North Idaho. Be safe, stay healthy.

- 02/23/25 09:16 AM
It took me a while to do a full mental buy in on this important item. Not because I don't believe its importance, but in Real Estate we tend to think the world will come to an end if we are not available 24/7. I do my very best in now trying to make my North Idaho Sundays as free of 'Have to Do's' as possible. Not that I don't enjoy getting up and getting things done but they are not on I have to get that done today 'to do list'. Part of my special treat on Sundays are seen above. (10 comments)

Sandpoint Realty Friday Flag is showing off some of the beautiful skies popping in and out right now. Between North Idaho storms right now we might get a day of 'partly cloudy skies'. And after the storms the skies are such a clear, clean, vibrant blue. Add in the colorful sunsets and the perfect setting for 'Friday Flag'. Thank you Naples Idaho resident for proudly flying our 'Stars and Stripes'. Enjoy the weekend North Idaho, rain or not. Be safe, stay healthy.

Sandpoint Realty 'Thursday Thought' continues to show a common theme, as well as unveil one. In searching out quotes, and motivations, for the love struck month of February, a not so obvious theme seems to be showing itself. Gratitude obvious. On top of that, and quite consistently, is gratitude leading to much more. Looking at what we don't have, rather than appreciating what we do have is formula for much of the bad 'possible' in our lives. Even being discontent with what we have presently and not realizing it may not have been that long ago that we wished and dreamed for the (5 comments)
mark don mcinnes: North Idaho Weather Proving True to Forecast
- 02/19/25 05:25 AM
While driving south on Highway 95 to Sandpoint Realty office in Sandpoint Idaho I saw what looked like blue skies in the distance as passing McAuthur Lake, Naples Idaho. I never tire of this drive to Sandpoint Realty's office. There is always something special to make me appreciate where I live, and work, in North Idaho. As I continued south I was not disappointed. PS...for those of you who have followed me at all over the past years you will recognize this photo being another shot of what I like to refer to as my Lollipop Tree. I never tire of the (11 comments)

Sandpoint Realty 'Monday Motivation' tries to maintain the February theme as well as throw in a little something for 'Presidents Day'. Caring and sincerity go much further in gaining trust, than words alone will ever achieve. Enjoy Presidents Day Holiday. Be safe, stay healthy North Idaho

- 02/14/25 06:41 AM
Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' has not been an easy one for me to catch. Persistence finally won out. Ballard Golf and Power is located on Warren Street Hayden Idaho, but fronts Highway 95 if traveling between Sandpoint Idaho and Coeur D'Alene Idaho. With no where to pull over on the highway and parking in their lot would require climbing fences back out towards the highway this has been a tough photo to get. Required shooting out my drivers side window as driving north, in traffic, and doing my best to avoid cars, and trucks, traveling south. Ballard Golf and Power, while a (6 comments)

- 02/13/25 08:36 AM
Earlier in the week I posted the forecasted temperatures being at, or near, zero. The below photo was on my way to the Sandpoint Realty Office this morning around 6am. Less than 20 miles down the road from Naples Idaho the temps had warmed up to 2 and 3 degrees. Good news to this is we are still forecasted to start warming up thru today and into this evening with high temps during the North Idaho days reading balmy high 20's to mid 30's. I would be very surprised to see single digit temps again this year. Oh no!!! Did I just say that. (12 comments)
