If there was a lake in our "lake country area" west of Milwaukee that I would call unaffordable, it would be Pine Lake. Are there any cottages left on this lake? I don't think so. There are historic mansions, 1970's mansions, and newer mansions - but cottages? I sold a 1970's-mansion on a beautif...

In the beautiful Silver Lake area in Oconomowoc, there is a condominium/single home community that is trying to beat the recession odds.

Back in March, near St. Paddy's Day, I held an open house for two condos in the same complex in Johnson Creek.

They say that Spring has arrived but I saw (for a short time) snow on the ground on Saturday morning, March 21 (around 6:30 am, in case you didn't get up until 8:00 am!). Not unusual for Wisconsin. I remember a May snowstorm in 1990 that left a few inches. So I asked my friend, and local farmer, ...
