I just developed and uploaded a new blog yesterday called “Sunset Ridge View“. It is based on the Community I sell new homes in Cochrane Alberta.

I want to blog about the Community and hopefully will get input from the residents of events and interesting facts that I can add. Maps and pictures will also be included along with information about the great Town of Cochrane.

Have a great weekend!

Well, it’s been one official month here in Calgary. We officially took possession of our new home here July 1st. Robin has been doing a great job of “nesting” and putting everything in it’s place. I thought we had gotten rid of allot of ’ stuff ’ but it still seems we have too much. The house is great and we are really taking advantage of the big yard. It has a hut tub we inherited, and I have been doing my best impression of a handyman to get it going, but to no avail. It has a mystery leak near the pump that only a service guy can fix. Hopefully they will call me back for a time to come out.

Looks like we may have the old home in Abbotsford sold. It is pending a few conditions that come off Monday, so please pray that this will close and we turn the page on the BC life. The boys are still living there but seem to be doing well. Adam is coming out for his Birthday this week so it will be great to see him.

The new job is doing great and I am adjusting well. I am pleased with my progress even though I am hard on myself when it comes to results. I know they will come in time and I heard once that there is no such thing as luck…just hard work and opportunity coming together. I know all the effort I am putting in will pay off for myself and for Calbridge Homes. I am running my first sales meeting tomorrow and really looking forward to it.

The weather here has taken a bit to adjust to. It is finally summer here but the first few weeks were cold, rainy and windy. Not necessarily it that order. I don’t remember the weather like this when we used to live here, but maybe I repressed those memories on purpose! The drive out to Cochrane every day just got easier with the opening of a new highway (Stoney Trail) and the views of the mountains are spectacular. There are allot of crazy drivers here and everyone has a pickup. No kidding. Redneck Capital of Canada as well.

So there you go. The mid July update from Larry Clark Blog. I will add some new pictures to the next post as well. Take care and thanks again for tuning into the every changing and adjusting life of the Clark’s.

Enjoy your summer,

Larry

Well, I interviewed today for a New Home Sales position in Calgary and was hired. Yes Larry Clark blog fans, I am moving back to Calgary. I start on the 15th of this month for Calbridge Homes and will start selling in Cochrane at the “Sunset Point” development and I am really looking forward to it.

Calbridge Homes is an outstanding builder and I am blessed to be able to work with them. They are very forward thinking and have an excellent land position for growth for the next 10-15 years. This means the trail has ended for Allpro and myself and I will sell off the remaining assets and turn it over to someone else to carry on.

Looking forward to the challenge of selling new homes in a development again and we will now concentrate on selling our home in BC and moving to Calgary very quickly. I will miss our time and friends in Abbotsford as well as my years with Allpro, but it has run it’s course and it’s time I use the skills and experience I have gained through the years to help another Company grow.

I will continue on with my blog of course and will fill you in on life back in Calgary.

Thanks for keeping up with me,

Larry J Clark
