Living Lake Country -- What is Culling?
Living Lake Country -- What is Culling?
The governor signed the bill at the Golden Mast Inn on Okauchee Lake near Oconomowoc last Friday morning. The bill's author, Republican Rep. Joel Kleefisch of Oconomowoc.Culling refers to catching a fish, keeping it in a live well and then throwing it back after catching a bigger fish. The practice is illegal in Wisconsin, but the bill creates an exemption for bass tournaments. Kleefisch says the change will draw larger tournaments to the state.
Friends of mine were on hand for the event -Republican Rep. Joel Kleefisch of Oconomowoc, Aaron David and Mike Simonds!

Time to start thinking Summer vacation HOMES in Waukesha County Wisconsin
Vacation Homes
Are vacation homes a good investment?
You can buy a vacation home today for investment purposes as well as enjoyment. And yes, there are tax benefits.Some people buy a vacation home to use as a permanent retirement home later, which allows them to get ahead on their payments. Another benefit is that the interest and property taxes on a vacation home are tax-deductible.
Some real estate experts predict that vacation homes will appreciate in value due to rising demand from the aging Baby Boom generation. You also can depreciate the property if you live in the house less than 14 days a year.
You also need to consider whether you can afford to carry two mortgages, pay for the extra utilities and maintenance costs, and how this investment fits into your total personal finance picture.
Have a productive day and we will see you at closing!

Rain Rain go away.......
Rain Rain go away!
Spring Rain Equals Wet BasementsWe have had our share of precipitation this year, with record snowfalls and now week-long rains. The constant moisture requires diligent checking on one's home to make sure no water is seeping into the house. In particular, heavy rains can cause problems in the basement. Even homes that never had issues with water in the basement may start to see some small areas of seepage.
If you happen to notice water coming into the basement of your home, here are some steps you can take to reduce the dampness:1. Clean your gutters. Often, gutters will be filled with leaves and debris to the extent that rain water actually overflows the gutter edge. Get out there and clean out your gutters so they can property move rain away from the house.
2. Check the grading of soil around the foundation. Ideally, the soil around the foundation should slope away from the house, so that there is a grading of the soil from back to front. Soil height should be higher on the foundation and lower into the lawn area.
3. If moisture is a consistent problem, consider installing a sump pump. A sump pump will help to keep water out of the basement. Homes that have recurring water in the basement may benefit from this device.
A roofing/gutter contractor, and landscaper, and a basement professional can help you determine the cause of water in the basement as well as possible remedies. Be sure to get this problem addressed quickly.
