How do you want to spend the spring and summer of 2022?

A little bit of work and a little bit of play. That's always a good goal.

Work hard... Play harder. That's another good motto.

Work smarter not harder. That's a favorite saying of mine.

Mansion Like No Other Home in Illinois with Island, Beach and Waterfall

The most surprising thing about this Downer's Grove dream home, at least to me, is the listing price. I expected it to be much higher than it is.
