Today I had floor-time and it was a cool, cloudy day here in the So. California Desert-- highs in the 60's are our "winter days". I was bundled up in turtle-neck and sweater and went out front to talk to a couple who had stopped to check out our flyers. They were dressed like it was a warm and balmy day-- and I easily guessed it--- they were from Canada.
They were'nt in the market for buying or selling-- but asked me for restaurant info and I found out they were staying all the way up in Palm Springs-- 45min away from our Old Town La Quinta. I recommended Melvyn's Ingleside Inn for a romantic dinner and told them to ask for Brian to get a great table! We talked about the Indian Wells Tennis Garden and their grand daughter who hopes to play there in a few years.
They have been coming to the Desert for years and love it here--- and so do I. We found a common bond- and made a connection. They may never buy or lease a house from me-- but we connected and that's what really matters.
