Links Back to the Week That Was 1/18

Wow – I wouldn’t want to move my own stuff in if I lived here. Waaaay too time consuming, although the view might be worth it, even if I was on a lower floor…

Ouch. Ouch, ouch, ouch – foreclosures up nationwide. Stockton, Vegas and Detroit are on the list of hardest-hit areas. That’s one top ten list I would not want to be on.

My love affair with The Consumerist continues, and so I’m sharing this info about keeping your car windshield ice-free for very little moula. It’ll probably come in handy this week as lows should hover right around the freezing mark.

And the waiting game drags on…Fluor’s contract gets extended and Lockheed gets to guess as to what the future holds.

Homeowners who live along the Columbia river in Kennewick, Richland, and Pasco gathered this week to provide feedback to the Army Corps of Engineers regarding the Corps new dock plans. This was in the paper on Tuesday -and Thursday saw this meeting recap published, and Saturday we learned that the Corps had extended the amount of time for the people to share their concerns. Actually, they had extended the deadline by the time the Wednesday night meet was over, but the Herald reporter didn’t stay long enough to get the full story. Kudos to the residents who told the Corps that a month was not nearly enough time.

And that’s it for this week!

My husband and I came to the Tri-Cities in 1994, and we thought it would be a temporary stop on our way to larger cities. He was a television sports anchor at the time, and we planned to go wherever the "next step up" took us. Twenty-plus years later, we're still here and we've loved every minute of it! We have two children now, and we've found the Tri-Cities area is a wonderful place to raise a family. It's a great place to do outdoorsy things -- I like to hike Badger Mountain or run along the river path. I also love reading ... by a cozy fire in the winter or a beautiful picture window in the summer (with the A/C on!). I've been a licensed Realtor since 2004. I earned my managing broker's license in 2016, which means I can run my own brokerage, or create a team of real estate agents and supervise them, which is exactly what I did when I formed the Cari McGee Real Estate Team in 2018! We have administrative and marketing personnel, as well as additional agents to serve you. I became a director of the Tri-Cities Association of Realtors Board of Directors in 2016, became Secretary/Treasurer of the organization, and was elected to Vice President in 2019.
