Closing Week

With much fanfare the 2007-2008 ski season came to a close this past weekend. The ski conditions were the best that I have ever seen for closing with over a 10’ base and mid-winter conditions all last week. The weekend finally brought sunshine, warm weather and spring ski conditions on Sunday. Sunday the mountain was crowded with all locals and parties were everywhere. By Sunday afternoon the beach at Silver Lake was rockin’ with many stories being told of this past season. As we now wait for the snow to melt we can take a deep breath and relax with many fond memories of the season. From late December through early February was some of the best skiing imaginable as it snowed most every day. This year people were finally saying that they’d had enough powder skiing for the season.

Big news in real estate this week is that Lewis, Wolcott & Dornbush Real Estate is now a Sotheby’s franchise and our new name is Summit Sotheby’s International Realty. This is very exciting as Sotheby’s brings strong name recognition, and a lot of power to our upper-end market. With the worldwide connections we expect to tap into much more of an international market than we could as an independent brokerage here in Park City. Watch for further information as we make this transition.
