Our broker Kevin Butler congratulated Mama today on setting the new MLS standard for Saint John and the Valley with her recent sale of 30 Fox Den Court in Drury Cove.  This stunning glass house that Mama refers to as Malibu chic is her seventh Million Dollar Plus sale in southern NB.  She utilizes specific training from Prudential Fine Homes International which she is continuing on with upscale marketing through Coldwell Banker Global Luxury to bring high-end buyers to our most illustrious homes in New Brunswick.  Global Luxury is a relatively new name here in NB but luxury buyers from around the world are very familiar with it as the fabulous homes included in the program are advertised in 49 countries in 32 languages.

 

        

I never thought I would be so happy to see the rain but we’ve been watering our lawn daily and still patches were turning brown!  It’s been so hot and so dry (I’ve been practically living on our biggest AC vent and Nicholas isn’t too far away) that our little brook is almost dried up and I don’t remember seeing the river so low.  Our vet says there can be a lot of bacteria in the river when it’s this low so I’m been doing my swimming in the Bay of Fundy at a private beach in New River.  It’s so warm that Nicholas has been jumping right in with me and last Sunday Mama came in and swam with us!  Papa just laughed and laughed, he couldn’t believe she got in that cold water.  She says it’s not so cold when it is coming in over the hot sand, making a big difference.  I love it when she swims with me.  We don’t go very far from the shore and I keep a close eye on her swimming circles around her making sure she’s okay and not in need of any rescuing.  She’s not a bad swimmer but doesn’t hold a candle to my long smooth strokes as I glide through the water.  The water is so lovely and clean at New River and we can easily see every pebble on the bottom.

 

Charlie has been as busy as a bee negotiating several offers this week on some of our fabulous homes and working through conditions.  He is one hard worker and a great negotiator always putting our clients needs first!  You rock Charlie!

We want to wish a Happy Birthday to our dear friend Murray Northrup, Samantha’s Papa, who turns 50 on Saturday with a huge bash put together by Bonny, Samantha’s Mama with a live band, feast, open bar and more!  Nicholas and I wish we could be there (think you could save me some cake?).  Wishing you many more Murray!  Party hardy and enjoy, you don’t look a day over 39!!!

The rain is supposed to stop tonight and hot and sunny tomorrow.  Then heavy fog all day Saturday and then sunny with chance of showers on Sunday.  I don’t care if it rains but Nicholas doesn’t like it.  We have a hard time to get him to go out in the rain even for five minutes.  Enjoy your last weekend in July, rain or shine make the most of it and we hope to see you soon.  Nicholas and I have our rain slickers ready!

Your pal,
