While the "recommendations" for potential blogs to highlight were much appreciated on Colleen's post about the next contest, I thought I would highlight local Minnesota bloggers here on Active Rain, that aren't always in the spotlight. Sorry Teresa but unfortunately I have to keep you off the list as I only have three spots, and if I included you, you would get all three which would numerically be impossible considering the contest rules. So, in no particular order, here are three bloggers in Minnesota that I highly recommend.
(Weenie photo? Need I say more?)
1) I just love to read posts from Teri Eckholm. She is a great writer, and adds that faint twist of dry humor to her posts that makes me laugh. Her recent experience sitting in continuing education made me chuckle as I have been in her shoes, as I am sure many of you have. Dumb comments from other Realtors keep the time in class dragging on. It is especially hard on a blogger who is just itching to post about the experience on her Weenie blog.
(I neither admit or deny that those could be Teri's shoes. Legs may or may not be included)
2) If you haven't seen the Codgers, then you are really missing out a great blog that is different then anything else I have seen. The graphics alone by Jay Merton & Jack Boardman make me tune in a couple times a week to see what Jay has created. His post this month on how Realtors are helping write house history is something I had never considered. While I would love to copy one of his portraits he created, they are copywritten and I don't have permission to do so...check it out for yourself!
(for the record, Jay is not the girl in the photo, as I do not have a "real" photo of him)
3) My favorite post of the month comes from Bonnie Erickson. With so many rants on Active Rain, it was nice to finally read a happy post. Bonnie had the privilege of working with a listing agent that showed just how professional our industry should be. Would you act the same way if you were in the LAs shoes?
(I like to think this photo represents how Bonnie felt as she walked out of her closing)
So there you have it. Three great real estate bloggers here on Active Rain that don't get featured 24/7. Up here in Minnesota, we may not get noticed as much as other states, but we have some fantastic down-to-earth people that make reading and blogging worth while. Be sure to say hello and check them out weekly, or better yet, subscribe to their blogs and keep better tabs so you don't lose them in the 40,000+ member shuffle.
