Chris Von Trapp (yes! he is actually related to the Von Trapp family!) is also a Realtor with my company Coldwell Banker Hickok and Boardman. He has this fantastic listing in North Hero. It is a Lake Champlain Point! The property consists of 17 acres on Green Point Road. There is a three bedroom home as well as a two bedroom that the owners currently lease out for holidays.

Here is where the story comes in! There was an Broker Open House held last week and to stay green we filled a car with 5 agents and drove to North Hero. The cottage was extremely unique. The owners had decorated it with charm and flair!
Whilst driving up to the Islands somebody mentioned that there was a dinosaur in a garden of a house. Obviously with Callum being 5, he is just getting interested in dinosaurs. So my ears perked up and I inquired some more. I was told that there was a Brontosaurus in a field looking out on to the water. Well that would be a sight! So we all had visions of this large and obvious dinosaur and decided on the way back to take a quick detour to see the dinosaur. Below is a picture! It does exist but with all the growth it isn’t particularly obvious and definitely isn’t large! Now having seen it and showing Callum we have decided that it is probably in honour of Champ the Lake Monster. Callum was far more impressed than 5 realtors!
The owner of the bottle contacted Veuve Clicquot, who said the bottle was the oldest in existence. The company now has it on display at its visitor centre in Reims, France.

Being a NETBALL player I was a little concerned that there might be another sport that was about to take over Burlington! So I did some research and felt that KICKBALL is basically a version of ROUNDERS!!
So I rocked up at Oakledge park last night with Callum and Charlie to watch Euan.
I was gobsmacked!
Every thursday at 6.30pm kickballers literally descend on Oakledge park. They all have their different coloured t shirts printed with team names and teams consist of the young and the old! There are 5 fields marked out were 10 teams play. The beauty of the event is that there is an 11th team who works the BBQ providing burgers and hot dogs for the hungry kickballers. Each team has their week of playing “chef”!
As one can imagine, the emphasis is on fun. Which is very refreshing! It was so well organised and to top the evening off, the weather was perfect and the sunset was typically stunning.
Last night was the second week of “kickball” season, they will be there all summer so please come and support those kickballers on a Thursday night at Oakledge park.
More info on the KIDS (Kickball in da Summer) league can be found on their Blog http://kidskickballog.blogspot.com/
Sunday was the local marathon. I had a couple of friends who were running in it and all did really well. It was a hot day which was great for the supporters of which there were heaps but not so good for the runners! There were some folks on North Avenue who set up a sprinkler shower for the runners which was very thoughtful!
Congratulations to all of those who took part!
