Christmas

Wow

Amazing experience tonigh, I want to let you know about my Denver Metro Santa Clause "sleigh ride"

I started out with 16 "presents"...(all of them containing a card with a "personal note that Jesus loves you and cares for you)

Each stop was amazing. I went to Morrison to 104th/Wadsworth to Federal, south to colfax, to downtown, then colfax/Colorado, then to Potomac/Arapaho (Arapaho county jail - VERY hard for me to do!).

Best moments:  at federal and 45 I stopped at a convenience store where a (homeless) woman was sitting on the curb, staring at the ground, wrapped in a blanket .... 29 degrees out.  I took a gift inside, gave it to the clerk, went back to my pickup, grabbed another gift with a $25 gift certificate, gave it to her and said "Merry Christmas".  You should have seen the look in her face. Best described as "I have nothing, I am freezing, its Christmas Eve...thank you".  I left the gas station with tears in my eyes.

2nd Best Moment...downtown at Colfax and Broadway...I stopped next to a homeless man in a wheelchair, wrapped in blankets, got out of my truck and gave him a food basket and gift certificate of $25... he looked and said merry Christmas...I drove away and just cried...but it was a happy cry. 

Made a bunch more stops and then off to the Arapaho County Jail.  Very hard for me. I parked in the front entry, walked up to main entry point, entered and rang the "buzzer", spoke into the intercom and said, " I have a present for the officers here". She said,"why?"...I said "I appreciate all that the police officers do for the community.  She said " I will be right there"...ha ha.  I left not crying but very happy, relieved, tired...but very fortunate for all that I have.  

Started at 8:30 and just got home 12:45, drove 100 miles, and absolutely loved every second of and...

I will do it next year!

Love,

Bret

Think the housing market is recovering?!

As of March, banks had an inventory of about 1.1 million foreclosed homes, up 20% from a year earlier, according to estimates from LPS Applied Analytics. Another 4.8 million mortgage holders were at least 60 days behind on their payments or in the foreclosure process, meaning their homes were well on their way to the inventory pile. That “shadow inventory” was up 30% from a year earlier.

Based on the rate at which banks have been selling those foreclosed homes over the past few months, all that inventory, real and shadow, would take 103 months to unload. That’s nearly nine years!

This is how it is done...branding "Montana style"!
