Mini-Compressor-Monday

This past weekend we celebrated the upcoming Chinese New Year at a Carnival! January 31, 2014 begins the Year of the Horse, which is supposed to be a year for quick successes! We wish you all quick successes in your endeavors.

Us here, we’re enjoying our success, though it hasn’t been quick –we’ll be celebrating Saturday Morning Productions’s 6th birthday in February… (Think of all the things you’ve worked on for 6 years). Here’s when we thank our Mini-Compressor customers and wonderful clients for helping us to build our success story!

Those of you in this part of the world will know Edmonton was lucky enough to escape that nasty phenomenon known as the Polar Vortex(TM) 2014 that happened last week. However, those of you who know of this part of the world will know we’ve suffered through sub-zero temperature for weeks now (with no catchy brand-name, other than the tag known as “Winter”)*.

The SatMP family ventured out of the basement and took advantage of the mild temperatures by visiting the Deep Freeze Festival.  It was a lot of fun.

Our dear friend Brad at 8r4d.com has kindly loaned us some holiday cheer to share for our final Mini-Compressor Monday of 2013.  DD will have 2 weeks off from school and we fully intend to enjoy some family time, and take in all the celebrations that come our way.

It looks here that Brad and his crew enjoyed some family time earlier this month: here are 12 lovely shots taken at the Edmonton Festival of Trees*.

One thing that I love about Mini-Compressor Monday is looking through our expansive photo archive for ‘just the right’ photos to share.  Today’s medley features trees and greenery from Christmas present and past.  And let me tell ya how quickly nostalgia sets in for those of us with young children!

This week we conclude the Mini-Compressor Mondays Real Estate series.  You may be relieved if you’re not into fictional real estate.  And if you’re looking for more information about using Mini-Compressor to help sell real estate, by all means, give me a shout!

Today’s property is something that’s closer to what we know in our basement-based world: a bungalow with behemoth garden in a mature neighbourhood within walking distance of most amenities.  It hardly reads like the palatial monstrosity of our first post, or the sleek urban condo of our second post, but it is a reality and our home, sweet home.
