She's There!

Kat Palmiotti is on the First Page!

Of the Active Rain Leaderboard that is.

I knew it would happen this year (2026) but it happened even earlier than I expected so I say:

To one of the BEST contributors to Active Rain.

Kat rules the state of Montana when it comes to the Active Rain Leaderboard and as of today she is one of the top 50 bloggers on the largest Real Estate blogging site in America.

She is in the position she is because of her hard work and dedication to help all of us to be better at what we do. No doubt Kat treats her clients the same way, to educate and make their lives better.

Stop by Kat's about me page or her latest blog entry and say congratulations.

To learn more about Kat check out her "About Me" page HERE.

This is another (my 4th) entry into the February challenge put forth by Patricia Feager and Lew Corcoran to highlight other member involved here in the Rain. AR Member Appreciation Month

Do you enjoy the cartoons written by my son (Timmothy N. Timm) which I use as a springboard to write my daily posts? His strip, Titus & Philemon, has run in two newspapers for years as well as being printed in my blog every day. Titus & Philemon (pronounced Phi - Lee -Man) are guinea pigs. Their owner is Joe. Timmothy has never repeated a joke/comic strip in the 12 years he has been writing it. He has never copied another strip, such as Peanuts or Garfield. You can follow Timmothy on FB as Titus & Philemon and you can also check him out on Instagram as Instagram.com/titus and philemon/ .For Timmothy's website type timmtimmothy.com into your browser. I tried to put it in a link here but it refuses to work. Do NOT put anything in front of timmtimmothy.com or it will not work.

Hi Bob... congratulations to Kat Palmiotti. I appreciate the heads-up as I do not ever look at the leaderboard for standings so would never have noticed that.

I remember that Nina Hollander, Broker because when I congratulated you you didn't have a clue back then either. 😉

Kat Palmiotti I've been watching it like a hawk but what really surprised me is you did it over night and jumped TWO spots to #49. 😊

Bob "RealMan" Timm - that's because I participated in the Zoom call meetings and did the homework the last quarter of last year, and I participated in the January challenge - the points from those were all provided at once and boom!

Feb 14, 2026 01:37 PM
Bob "RealMan" Timm

I get it Kat Palmiotti because over night I jumped a spot as well with 7,000 points posted over the last 24 hours. 😊

Right you are George Souto . I forgot the 1st page is the top 50 so I just made that correction above. I hope to make it to page 1 this year myself.

Bob, nice of you to give Kat a shout-out for getting to Page one.   She has been blogging more lately!

Bob "RealMan" Timm

She was super active Joan Cox, Retired Broker/Owner and blew right by me even though I post daily. Then she slowed a little and I thought I would catch her but POW she put it back into overdrive leaving me in the dust once again. I doubt I will catch up but I am looking to join her on the 1st page yet this year.

Well, good luck Bob.

What an uplifting tribute to Kat Palmiotti, Bob "RealMan" Timm. The way you highlighted her steady work and genuine care says so much about the impact she’s had on this community, and it was a joy to read. Thanks for sharing this thoughtful entry and shining a light where it’s well deserved.

Back in the day, when she lived in New York we met at one of the infamous Meet-ups hosted by Dagny Eason.

She has been here a long time which is another way to ride up that roster.

Me too Ed Silva, 203-206-0754 , I've been here a lot longer than most. I never got in on any meet-ups because I'm pretty much alone here in North Dakota.

Hi Bob,
Kat Palmiotti is definitely our #1 Montana connection. She and her husband love Montana life and it shows!

Yup! Even though Montana is less than 150 miles away I knew little about it until Kat Palmiotti started blogging about it Carol Williams .

Good morning Bob. A fine choice to pick Kat. I have followed her regularly for a long time and she plays trivia daily. And chasing her will get you to page one much quicker. Enjoy your day.
