This Week in John’s Life
This week has been one of abundant gratitude. I was able to help so many people in the last 6 months. Several of these clients have sent me words of gratitude since moving into or out of their new homes (image here & image here). Today we introduced a Hammond Bay main level entry walk out home to the market (video here).
I have also been fortunate to get out exploring in the evenings. This past Thursday I attended the Thursday Night market in Downtown Nanaimo (images here) and have been off the shore of Nanaimo exploring all the amazing islands and beaches (video here). Next week I will be taking a few days to relax with my daughters at our property on Thetis Island.
