Garden Of Eden

Team Diana was previewing a home yesterday. As we were touring the yard with the owner, we almost stepped on this little buddy. In the blink of an eye, he bolted from the ground to this tree perch. Now don't worry for us, he is not dangerous. Worry for him though. We probably scared the %^# out of him.

Ok, back to the new listing in Three Rivers. Watch the Team Diana website. This awesome home should be up and running next week. A few details.... approx. 2200 sq ft. 4 bedroom, 4 bath historic home on 5 RIVERFRONT acres. Amazing details like redwood doors ( from giant Sequoias), cedar beams with sycamore inlay. More to come!

My Sweet Babies



I just love it when my children come home for a visit. As they walk through our front door, they immediately morph into little girls again. They call me mommy, play games, cuddle, cook, pull out their favorite teddy bears and we all laugh and laugh until we cry. Our quiet home is once again filled with noise, loads of laundry, mountains of dishes and a million smiles and hugs. We stay up all night, every night, talking.
Now that Easter break is over and our home is once again occupied by only two, we will await our next visit from our sweet little babies!

Just Sold

Did you ever have a dream? Paul and Dolly did! They dreamed of owning land in Three Rivers and building their dream home. Last week their dream started to become reality. On a beautiful spring day, they closed escrow on their land.

Team Diana was so excited to surprise Paul and Dolly with this little portable bistro table. As they approched their new acquision, Dolly- who is naturally enthusiastic- squealed with delight. In addition to their zest for life, these buyers are just very nice people. They are going to be amazing additions to our community and we are so glad they are going to be neighbors!

aH, ThE PEOPle wE mEEt

Today on our morning walk we were greeted by many neighbors. Fran, a local senior, was sitting on a rock awaiting her walking companion. She told us the story of how she acquired her dog. Cynthia was nurturing her garden and we shared in her vision of it's full maturity. Nina peeked out her window( above- she is at the middle window on the upper level). With coffee in hand, she shouted out a hello. Her husband then came out and invited us in for breakfast. Kelly met us at the bridge. She caught us up on the latest in her world. Her dog occupied himself by sniffing at us then at the surroundings.
Oh, the people we meet daily in a small community! !

For Everything There Is A Season

We just visited Los Angeles/Orange County. Upon returning it was evident that we have made the right choice by living in Three Rivers for the last 28 years. I can breathe here, work here, worship here, serve here and truly enjoy creation. Living in a place like Three Rivers gives one the freedom to CHOOSE to have a balanced life. I suppose one has that freedom anywhere they live, but here there are not many materialistic distractions.

Distractions in Three Rivers consist of stopping to pick wildflowers, deciding if one should nap in their hammock with or without their favorite book. Shall I stroll along my favorite street and visit with all of the neighbors or go for a serious hike on BLM land?
I am thankful to be working and playing in my own backyard(community)! Is it your season to make a life change? Come join us!

BULL


I, Diana G., drove out to the end of South Fork yesterday to take some pictures of our new listing, a 680 acre ranch bordering Sequoia National Park. On my way back I could not get down the mountain because two bulls were fighting in the road.
It was so exciting! The bulls were as big as my car and so powerful. I kept beeping my horn at them to get out of the way but they paid no attention. The white bull was the aggressor and I thought he was going to push the brown bull over the edge to a sheer drop into the South Fork Canyon.
I am a farmers daughter from Wisconson and I wanted to get out of my car and chase them off the road, but my husband would not let me. He is a city guy and was intimidated. Not me- Oh yee of little faith.
We have just about everything in Three Rivers. :)
