Look to the Sky When You Need Inspiration

The sky…something we see every day, yet something still so vast that it’s difficult to comprehend how far it really goes. The same is true for our lives–our goals. While we may not see the progress when we look at our feet, we can see it in the sky and how far we’ve come. Your journey may not be over, but it’s important to celebrate how far you’ve come. Use the sky’s neverending possibilities to keep moving forward.
With that in mind, we’ve curated several topics for our February edition–let’s take a look:
- Video: The State of the Economy in Northern Nevada by EDAWN
- 2,300 Jobs Added in 2022 with Record Average Wages
- Local Events
- How to Clean Your Windows the Right Way
- What We’re Talking About Online

If you have questions about anything local or real estate related, consider our Team a resource. If you or someone you know is thinking of making a move, we’re always happy to help.
Sincerely,

Everyone has windows, and it’s always a struggle to keep them spot- and streak-free. Try this checklist to keep your panes perfect:
- Place towels on the floor and a smaller on the windowsill to collect dirt and any water.
- Clean curtains and blinds first so you don’t have dusty curtains/blinds touching your clean windows!
- Label each screen before removing it and setting aside.
- Use a large duster or whisk broom to clean around the window frame.
- Next, clean the inside of the window with a damp cloth before applying a window cleaner.
- Use a window cleaner and spray each section as you go, using an S motion, avoiding spraying the whole window at once because it might dry before you can wipe. Clean the window with a microfiber cloth or other lint-free cloth.
- Dry with another cloth, a dry part of your first cloth, or a squeegee.
- Believe it or not, the outside is easier because you can use a garden hose! Be sure to close all windows first and dust off debris. Rinse with the hose, then dry with a squeegee or microfiber cloth. For windows above the ground floor use a telescoping pole with a cloth attached for the cleaning and drying.
