After years of working together, often conferring and confabulating several times a day – although we’d only seen each other in person once, 7 years ago, long before we started working together, since he lives in FL – my treasured assistant Mike Doherty, his family and I spent a fabulous day together today. Mike’s wish was to see some of the homes he entered into MLS for me, and some of the places we’d blogged and posted about over the past couple of years. His take? It all looks better and more interesting in person. Melanie and their 3 kids were supremely forbearing as Mike and I yakked on and on. Thank you, Mike, for your interest, willing attitude, and patience!

And have an awesome day tomorrow celebrating your birthday in Boston! Onward, in strength and grace!
