When our family first started off, we lived in Chicago. After kids, we made the decision to move to the Northwoods.... from a lawyer in Chicago to resort owners in little 'ole Presque Isle! In addition to the resort, we did what many in the Northwoods do, and sought out additional ways to make a living and be an integral part of our new community -- including running a restaurant and starting up a real estate/law office.
I now find myself ever thankful that all three of my children (after college and stints living elsewhere) made it back to the Northwoods and are choosing to raise their families in Presque Isle. They are doing it their way, with their own sets of values, and each having established a unique community fit. During the summer, I am fortunate to do a weekly "Grandma Day" with my seven grandkids and explore everything from waterfalls to carwashes. The kids are getting older and busier now, ranging in age from 7 to 17. I can only hope the memories we make will last, and that our experiences together may be a small piece of what they value as they grow up and move on. And maybe, just maybe, some of these crazy-amazing kids will eventually find their way back to Presque Isle, too. Are you interested in a possible move to Presque Isle? We have a number of affordable listings and great starter homes for families. Feel more than welcome to contact me anytime.
