Greetings Fellow Life Travelers:

And just like that, Thanksgiving Day is over! Had a beautiful dinner with friends at a fabulous Clear Creek residence. Lots of good cheer along with beautiful food and great adventure stories shared. It feels a bit strange not to have snow on the ground, and predictions aren’t very encouraging for the next while. For those who know Reno, Perenn Bakery has a new restaurant – Claio – in the shopping center at Mayberry and McCarran, where I had dinner on Wednesday. Interesting cocktail specialties and a fun, different menu. Let’s see what was on the real estate menu this holiday week.

Residential Real Estate – week 11/22 – 11/28

Location	New Listings	Escrows	Solds
N/W Shores/Truckee MLS	20	12	20
Incline/Crystal Bay MLS	4	7	2
East Shore MLS	2	5	2
Reno/Sparks MLS	35	92	52

Kinda wimpy numbers for this short week. Only big deal was Crystal Pointe, listed at $43 M, that went to escrow.
