Snow Day 1/12/11 The End

We received about 19″ of snow in the West End of Hartford during this storm. Not bad! Just about everyone has done their initial shovel out.

Look for a super monster spectacular data blog post in the upcoming week, as well as

We haven’t actually heard from or seen her since 2004, but every December we get our calendar, like clockwork. You might have this happen too. Agents like to send these desk or refrigerator calendars to their past clients to remind them that they’re still alive and could potentially help them sell their home if the need
