No, you didn’t suddenly stumble upon the local weathercaster’s blog.

In our family we think it’s funny to discuss negative degrees.  We want to know, how can you have a debit of degree?  How can you be in debt to zero?  We say things like, “Someone, somewhere, has taken more than the alloted degrees allowed for the day, and we now have a degree debt.”

This morning I read the forecast aloud to my kids – “There should be 1 degree on Friday night, and it should be 6 BELOW zero on Saturday night.”  I then asked my son if he’d like me to awaken him at 1 or 2 am on Sunday morning, and we could go searching for the missing degrees  He said no.  He’s a smart kid.

If you have pets, please be sure to bring them indoors.  And, no matter how tempting it is, don’t go looking for negative degrees!

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.
