From Our Home

to Yours:

Johnson Family

Highlights

of 2009

Jossy and Holly

continue to thrive in

school, now in Grades 1

and 3. Camping, drama,

dance, science, and

water sports all spelled

out summer fun

Mary staged more

homes than ever, for

Bruce’s clients and

other REALTOR’s

clients, with many

opportunities to put the

transformative power of feng shui into practice

Bruce took his kayaking skills up a notch or twenty by

exploring the infamous Ottawa River play spots

Time with friends and family—and especially our parents—

was a blessedly recurring theme, in Minnesota, Florida,

South Carolina and holidays here at home in the Beach

The Blessings of

Impermanence We all know that nothing lasts forever.

Still, in spite of being the natural order of

things, some changes can surprise us —

like when a blanket of snow suddenly

pops up

crocuses, or

a random kid

demos your

sandy

masterpiece

even before

the incoming

waves have a chance.

Similarly, times of recession and prosperity

ebb and flow; “what-if” anxieties rush in and

melt away and we’re too busy holding our

breath to pursue our passions.

In Wasaga Beach we are blessed with

colourful reminders that natural beauty, like

prosperity, good heath and even luck, is

difficult to predict, fleeting in endurance and

very, very precious to behold.

Here’s wishing you and yours a merry &

bright holiday! May 2010 bring you long-

lasting health, joy and—predictions be

darned—peace! -Mary and Bruce

Thank you…! After 13 years working at RE/MAX, it goes without saying that

we love referrals. But we really can’t thank you enough for

recommending us to your friends or family who are moving into,

within or out of the area. When you introduce like-minded souls

who value investing, growing, learning and playing in a healthy

environment, you make the world a better place! And because we

find that the line separating friend and client is a blurry one

indeed, we truly hope you’ll continue to keep us in the loop of

your life’s ups & downs.
