The CRS Certified Residential Specialist Conference was held in Oahu, Hawaii this year.  Brad and I were both invited to speak at the conference where about 900 real estate agents from across the country came together to learn more about selling is a soft market. 

Brad & I also got away for a much needed vacation to Maui.  We were supposed to go in October, but our trip got postponed as I work hard with others on Matanuska Maid.  We returned home to 20 below temperatures, but at least its sunny every day and the days are getting longer.  The real estate market seems to be picking up a little and that's good news for everyone.
