Chapter 1 | Chapter 2

“I’ll see you tomorrow,” Celeste offered as a farewell as she slung her purse over her shoulder.

The café was only partially packed at this time of day, after the lunch rush and before the early dinner customers. During the off-season, it was easier to predict the day-to-day schedule; during peak tourist time in the summer and winter, it was a crap shoot on how busy they would be. Too cold and people wouldn’t brave the mountains to ski even if that was why they came to visit. Too hot and they weren’t going to be out boating in the heat of the day, opting for an early dinner then perhaps hitting the lake at sundown.

“See you tomorrow. Are you still good to work over with Andrea needing off for her kids?” Her boss asked as he shoved another tray of fresh bread into the display case and stood up with a groan, holding his lower back.

“Oh, yes, no problem,” Celeste answered, having already forgotten she had agreed to that last week. Not that it mattered; she had no one at home waiting on her. Well, except for Samson.

The day was overcast, as it usually was this late in the winter. The snow mostly melted, even on the highest peaks, with temperatures rising to give way to spring. It was rainy season, and as Celeste yanked open her car door, she felt a few errant drops catch her arm. She hated driving in the rain and hated everything about that particular weather, so getting home quickly was the goal.

The fifteen-minute drive, the average time when only the locals were around, passed without much fuss. The roads weaving through dense woods before opening to spectacular views of the lake on the left were why people came to this sleepy place. It had something for everyone: a lake for sailing, racing, and water skiing. Mountains in the not-so-far distance for hiking, camping, skiing, and even sheer rockface mountain climbing for the bravest.

Celeste hadn’t bothered with any of that in months, barely left her own home unless it was for work or to go to the grocer. She had only officially moved into the family cottage right before Christmas, though the place still looked like a vacant house. She hadn’t even entered the den; the furniture was still covered in sheets, and packed boxes littered the halls. She just didn’t have the energy or willpower to finish, only pulling out the bare minimum to get by the past three months.

Putting her car in park, she stared in her side mirror at the bins she needed to drag into the detached garage. Just as she had pulled in, the sky opened up to deluge the area, and she didn’t want to get soaked messing with them. How long could she get away from leaving them before the neighbor up the road came calling to remind her? Trash day had been three days ago; leaving the bins out all week wasn't proper. As she twisted in the backseat to try and find an umbrella, she noticed movement at the cottage next door that made her pause.

The place had been for sale since she had moved in. It had been falling into disrepair for as long as she could remember. The owner's adult children had moved from England years ago, and the parents were too old to maintain the property. They had rented it out for a while but stopped when the roof collapsed on the sunroom while guests were staying. No one had repaired it, and the house sat empty month after month until the For Sale sign appeared. It caused a fuss in the town; people were mad that the family home would likely go to strangers, but Celeste kept quiet. She was also a stranger here; the family cottage she moved into was her husband’s.

She watched quietly as a man climbed out of the sleek town car, jacket pulled over his head to shield himself from the rain. He ran to the backseat and wrenched open the door one-handed before digging around inside, leaning slightly to reveal his other arm was wrapped tightly in a sling. He found his quarry after a moment, a large duffel before he slung it over his back and slammed the car door shut. His steps were quick to get to the front door, and she watched him fumble one-handed with the keys for a moment before he shouldered the door open and slipped inside.

It seemed like an odd choice for a man to move into a cottage that was falling apart. He could barely do anything one-handed, and guessing by how he juggled everything, the hand in the sling was his dominant one. Maybe his partner would be coming along to help. Or perhaps this guy was just the investor who bought the place to flip it and sell it to some out-of-town rich people. Just another outsider moving in.

What was she thinking? She was also the outsider, and here she was judging another person who probably had no idea anyone was even paying attention to them.

With a sigh, she gave up on her search for the umbrella and grabbed her purse. The bins would have to wait another day. After one last search of the car to make sure she hadn’t forgotten anything, Celeste opened the door and ran for it. The rain was freezing, sliding down the back of her shirt and soaking her hair. She shoved the key in the lock and wrenched the door open, lifting it a bit to keep it from scraping the floor before stepping inside.

----------------------------

Kyle stared around at the inside of the cottage with a small sigh. When Price said it needed some work, he had sorely undersold how much it actually needed. The smell of must hit him square in the face just a foot inside the place. Then, when he dropped the duffel in the entryway, a cloud of dust floated back up to him, telling Kyle that the place had been empty for months, if not years.

He shuffled down the small hallway to the kitchen, bypassing the living room to the right to find it wasn’t much better. A few cabinet doors were still half open, with plates and cups inside that were probably older than he was. The stove had grease stains all over the top, and Kyle made a face as his feet stopped short of some old mouse droppings in front of the fridge.

“You said it needed a little work,” Kyle muttered into the phone a few minutes later as he climbed up the steps to the bedroom area.

“Not sure I said little, Sergeant,” came John’s voice over the line. It was crackled, sounding like it was coming from a long distance.

“Let me ask Johnny if he remembers what you said,” Kyle answered with a small smile as he toed the metal bedframe of a twin bed.

“He’s busy,” Price answered. Through the tone, Kyle could tell he was grinning as well. “I’ll be there in a couple of days. See what you can get figured out.”

“Yeah, I’m sure I’ll get along just fine one-handed. I’ll have that collapsed porch built in no time,” Kyle answered, his voice dropping humor to reveal his frustration with his injury.

“Don’t overdo it,” Price answered quietly.

“Yeah, yeah,” Kyle answered as he peeled back the faded yellow comforter before collapsing on the bed. It squeaked ominously under him, and he stiffened, expecting it to give way under his weight, but it still held. “A new bed is the first thing I’m getting,” he answered after a moment. As he shifted, the metal whined loudly under even the slightest movement, threatening to cave.

“Put it on the list,” Price answered before the sound of his hand covering the speaker muffled his voice.

“Just go,” Kyle said before Price could return, telling him he had to cut the conversation short. “I’ll see you in a few days, Captain, as long as this place doesn’t fall apart with me in it first.”

He hung up the line and threw the phone onto the nightstand before rising with a groan. He needed a shower and food. Strolling to the window to peer out at the lake, he watched the rain bounce off the surface, churning the calm image from the pictures Price had shown them all into a raging mess. He stared briefly, taking in the view of the small dock and boat bouncing on the waves and the mountains across the way before a light caught his eye.

This was supposed to be a tourist town, one that many people didn’t truly live in year-round, but yet someone else was here. Kyle narrowed his eyes to watch as the backdoor opened, and a figure appeared. They were wrapped in a bright yellow rain jacket, and he smirked a bit as they gestured for someone to hurry up. He assumed it was a dog that needed to be coaxed to go out in the rain, but when nothing came, he watched as the person stomped out into the rain. They went right toward a bush, and when they bent down, a flash of bright orange streaked in from under it and into the house.

The person righted themselves and stared at the open back door for a moment. He saw the person, a woman, push back her hair into the hood where it had fallen out and saw her mouth moving. If he were to place bets, he would have taken a fiver on the fact that she was cursing up a storm at her errant cat. She stood in the rain a moment longer, twisting to glance out at her dock, where two chairs sat, before making her way back inside herself. When the light finally cut, Kyle turned around and headed down the hall to find a bathroom. He hoped he didn’t fall through the floor or the pipes wouldn’t explode when he turned on the water.

---------------------------

“I will leave you out there next time,” Celeste threatened as Samson sat in the middle of the kitchen floor, licking his paws. He was soaked to the bone but still seemed pleased with himself. Celeste was careful never to leave him out when she wasn’t home, especially in the evening. But the little shit had used one of the floor registers to get under the house and out that way. She would need to place another one of the boxes on his newest escape tunnel and figure out a way to secure it from her little Houdini properly.

Bending down, she dried him off as best as he would allow with a tea towel before throwing it in the washing machine. The laundry was piling up again, spilling out the front of it, and she eyed it angrily. She knew she’d need a fresh apron and undergarments for her shift tomorrow. Laundry was just one of those things that always fell to the wayside for her until she was left sniffing a shirt to see how bad it was and if she could reuse it for a third day.

“Dinner first,” she muttered, opening the fridge to stare at her options. Fuck. When was the last time she had been to the grocer? She had half a loaf of bread, a few slices of deli cheese, and some questionable leftovers from the week before. The rest were all condiments and half-drunk bottles of wine. “Cheese it is,” she decided, grabbing the bag and a bottle of wine before wandering to the pantry to open a can of cat food for Samson. He was still attempting to dry himself, but the minute the can popped, he trotted over and began to eat.

Celeste shoved a piece of cheese in her mouth before finally peeling off her dirty work apron and pushing it into the washing machine. She jammed a few buttons, threw in some soap, and started it before collapsing at the kitchen table. The rain was still coming down in sheets outside, and she swigged directly from the bottle, debating how she was going to spend the rest of her evening. Nothing seemed appealing. She could read, of course, but books had lost their charm over the past months. Television was nothing but trash, love stories, or bad news. And unpacking the rest of her boxes was off the list for the time being.

The last time she tried to dig through her hastily packed things, she was smacked in the face by one of his unfinished projects. It was a little thing he had started on a rainy day on a creative whim. She always bugged him about his new hobbies and ideas, how he’d start things but never finished them. But he promised this one would be different because he was making it for her. A promise that felt cruelly ironic as she turned the thing over in her hands while she sat alone in the hallway and cried.

Just another vow that would remain forever unfulfilled.

Impact of Chicago Weather on Real Estate Trends

Chicago is a city known for its rich history, diverse culture, and vibrant neighborhoods. While the Windy City is famous for its real estate market, it is also shaped by its sports, food scene, cultural institutions, and transit systems. In this article, we will explore how these different facets of Chicago life interact with and influence the real estate market says, Omar Hussain Chicago.

## Main Discussion

Chicago’s weather, particularly its harsh winters, plays a role in shaping the real estate market. Homebuyers often prioritize properties with features like heated garages, energy-efficient windows, and indoor amenities to combat the cold. Additionally, the summer months see an uptick in home sales as the city’s pleasant weather attracts more buyers.

Chicago is known for its long, cold winters, which can last well into April. For homeowners, this means investing in properties that are equipped to handle the cold. Features like energy-efficient windows, proper insulation, and heated garages are highly sought after by buyers looking to keep their homes warm during the winter months. Sellers who offer these amenities are likely to see a faster sale and higher offers.

Omar Hussain, a leading real estate expert, remarks: “{quote1}” His statement underscores the importance of weatherproofing in Chicago’s real estate market.

On the flip side, Chicago’s summers are relatively short but highly enjoyable. As temperatures rise, so does the demand for homes with outdoor spaces like patios, balconies, and rooftop decks. Properties that offer a combination of winter-friendly features and summer amenities tend to be the most desirable. Real estate activity often picks up in the spring and summer months as buyers take advantage of the warm weather to explore homes.

Additionally, homes located near parks and outdoor recreational areas, such as those along Lake Michigan, become more valuable during the warmer months. The ability to enjoy Chicago’s limited summer weather by living near green spaces is a significant selling point for many buyers.

Omar Hussain, a well-known real estate expert, shares his thoughts: “Chicago’s real estate market is as diverse as its neighborhoods, with each area offering something unique.” This reflects the intricate connection between Chicago’s real estate market and its cultural and social elements.

## Impact on Real Estate

One of the major factors affecting real estate in Chicago is Chicago’s extreme weather. Buyers and developers must consider features that make properties livable year-round, including the harsh winters and warm summers.. According to Omar Hussain, “As a cultural hub, Chicago’s iconic landmarks play a crucial role in shaping real estate demand.” As the city continues to evolve, these trends present both challenges and opportunities for real estate investors and homeowners.

## Conclusion

As one of America’s most iconic cities, Chicago offers a dynamic and ever-changing real estate landscape. Whether it’s the sports culture, famous food scene, or the efficient transit system, every element of the city has a unique influence on property values. As Omar Hussain Chicago aptly notes, “The city’s strong transit system makes it easy for buyers to invest in properties far from the downtown core while maintaining access to jobs and amenities.”

Smart Roof Care: Easy Tips for Broward County Residents

Broward County’s mix of sunny days and seasonal storms makes it essential for homeowners to keep their roofs in top condition. At Fair Contractor Sales Roofing, we know that regular maintenance can extend the life of your roof and prevent costly repairs. Here’s a straightforward guide to help Broward County residents manage their roof care efficiently.

Simple Steps for Effective Roof Maintenance

Maintaining your roof shouldn’t be a daunting task. With these easy-to-follow tips, you can ensure your roof remains healthy and functional throughout the year:

1. Conduct Visual Inspections: Make it a habit to visually inspect your roof from the ground every few months. Look for signs of wear such as missing shingles, damaged flashing, or other visible issues. Catching and addressing these early can prevent bigger problems later.

2. Clear Your Gutters: Ensure your gutters are free of debris like leaves and branches. Clogged gutters can lead to water backing up and damaging your roof, walls, and even the foundation of your house. Cleaning your gutters before the rainy season and after major storms is crucial.

3. Trim Nearby Trees: To prevent damage from branches scraping against your roof or falling on it during a storm, regularly trim trees near your home. This not only protects your roof but also minimizes debris accumulation.

4. Look for Leaks in the Attic: After every major rainstorm, take a quick look in your attic for any signs of leaks. Catching leaks early can save your interior from water damage and more extensive roof repairs.

5. Schedule Professional Inspections: At least once a year, have your roof inspected by a professional. They can identify issues that you might miss and provide expert maintenance to help prevent future problems.

Why Routine Roof Care is Crucial

•Prevents Major Repairs: Regular maintenance helps catch minor issues before they become major, preventing the need for expensive repairs.

•Extends Roof Life: By taking care of your roof, you extend its lifespan, delaying the need for a full replacement and saving money over time.

•Enhances Home Safety: A well-maintained roof protects against the elements more effectively, keeping you and your family safe.

•Improves Energy Efficiency: A roof in good condition helps regulate your home’s temperature more efficiently, leading to lower heating and cooling costs.

Get Expert Help from Fair Contractor Sales Roofing

Whether you’re facing immediate roof concerns or just want to keep up with regular maintenance, Fair Contractor Sales Roofing is here to help. Our team provides comprehensive roofing services tailored to meet the unique needs of Broward County residents.

Putting the "Wash" in Washington: Soap Lake

Among the local American Indian tribes there is a legend about an old woman who died near Soap Lake. Her people had to leave before the snows fell, and they did not have time to bury her. So they threw her body into the lake and continued on their journey. A few days later the old woman caught up with them. The lake water had brought her back to life.

Since prehistoric times, people have sought healing from the waters of hot springs across the world. Washington State has several, which is not remarkable, but what about an entire lake saturated with minerals like sodium, silicon, chloride, various sulphates, aluminum, potassium, and magnesium? That place is Soap Lake, in the northeast of the state.

The American Indians of eastern Washington recognized the healing powers of the lake when they drank its waters. In the summer and fall, members of many tribes gathered there, calling it Skokiam, which meant something like "strong" or "healing" waters. They camped there for days or weeks, gathering roots, racing horses, and socializing with their friends and relatives.

American settlers moved into the area in the mid-1800s. They found that when they swam in the lake, they floated more easily in its mineral-rich waters than they did in normal water or even in the ocean. And they were amazed to find that when washed their clothes, they did not need soap. The water formed suds and lathered when they rubbed their clothes against the rocks-and so they named the place Soap Lake.

Many settlers also noticed that although the lake was cold, they felt better after a plunge in its waters. They promoted the lake waters as a cure for rheumatism, arthritis, lumbago, and skin diseases such as eczema. In the early 1900s, several businessmen opened spa resorts in the area and piped in water from the lake for bathing as well as for patrons to drink. Some people gathered mud from the east end to coat the bodies of people suffering from joint pain. It may also cured a condition known as Berger's Disease, a cardiovascular ailment caused by exposure to mustard gas in World War I.

Soap Lake is not easy to get to, and over time the inconvenience made it less appealing. Today many people stop at Soap Lake only because they are on the highway headed to other places, like Grand Coulee Dam. Consequently, the town now has a somewhat forlorn look. The buildings are in good repair, but many display FOR SALE signs. Although some of the original resorts have been torn down, there are still plenty of others to stay: motels along the lake and several campgrounds and RV parks that hug its south and east sides.

In a bid to regain some of its former glory, Soap Lake took ownership of a fifty-foot-tall lava lamp and hopes to install it downtown. However, it is not easy for the town of about a thousand people to come up with the several thousand dollars needed to set it up.

Not a Washout

Soap Lake was formed over a period of several thousand years by a dramatic geologic process involving an ice dam that blocked the Columbia River, causing it to cut a channel through what is now the lake. The dam burst at the end of the Ice Age, allowing the Columbia River to flow in its present-day channel. Water still flowed into Soap Lake, however, though layers of basalts, granites, and other stone, carrying many minerals with it.

Over the last twelve hundred years, hot, dry weather evaporated much of the lake water, concentrating the minerals. These minerals divided into two distinct layers: The bottom of the lake is ten times saltier than the Pacific Ocean and cooler than the water on the lake's surface, making it too heavy to rise and mix with the warmer upper layer, which has a high alkali content. The healing mud at the bottom of the lake also seals the lake bottom, stopping minerals from leaching back into the bedrock.

Large aquatic animals cannot survive in the lake due to its heavy mineral content. It is home instead to algae, bacteria, and small crustaceans, which may be the key to some of its healing powers. It also contains a substance called ichthyols, created when the crustaceans in the lake die and decompose. Ichthyol oil is used in Europe as a salve for cuts, burns, and minor injuries.

In the 1950s, several engineering projects increased the amount of water flowing into Soap Lake, diluting its mineral content. The citizens of Soap Lake appealed to the federal government to have pump and well system set up to drain off the fresh water before it flowed into the lake, hopefully preserving its benefits for future generations of bathers.

Crumb Unveils New Single “The Bug” and Announces North American Tour!

Following last month's announcement of their new album AMAMA, Crumb has unveiled a fresh preview with the single "The Bug." Along with the new track, the band has released an engaging and playful music video directed by Haoyan of America. Additionally, Crumb has announced a headline North American tour starting in mid-July. The tour will cover 30 cities, including stops in Chicago, Austin, Boston, Los Angeles, and a hometown concert in Brooklyn. L’Rain, Vagabon, and Discovery Zone will join Crumb on select dates. The full tour schedule is available below, with tickets going on sale this Friday, April 26th, at 10 AM local time. Discussing the new single, Lila Ramani of Crumb explains: "‘The Bug’ has been part of our musical journey since the early days, before the Jinx era. It started in a motel in Nebraska where I woke up covered in bed bug bites. Unable to sleep, I roamed the motel humming what would eventually form the outro of the song. As we recorded it years later, it gained a deeper, more tender meaning—the 'bug' isn't just an insect; it can be a friend, a lover, or a persistent late-night thought." Check out “The Bug” below: AMAMA represents Crumb’s most carefree and heartfelt work to date, mixing poetic abstraction with introspective honesty and inventive soundscapes. The album showcases Crumb in a dynamic and lively mode, incorporating elements like glitchy vocals, cell phone recordings, nautical sounds, sax mouthpiece solos, distorted drum samples, and piano strings muted with Silly Putty. Set for release on May 17th through Crumb Records, the album includes the title track "AMAMA," a vibrant homage to Lila Ramani's grandmother. This track is further enhanced by a music video directed by Abraham El-Makawy, which blends Lila’s archival home footage with fan-submitted artwork, creating a poignant mosaic of nostalgia. With its blend of psychedelia, pop, jazz, and rock, AMAMA further cements Crumb's distinctive musical identity. The album, produced in Los Angeles with Johnscott Sanford and Jonathan Rado, reflects on themes of stability, connection, and clarity amidst a nomadic life. In 2023, Crumb released the single “Le Temple Volant” with Melody’s Echo Chamber, earning praise from Pitchfork, The FADER, Stereogum, and others. AMAMA continues the narrative arc from their earlier works, including the self-titled EP Crumb, Locket, 2019’s Jinx, and 2021’s Ice Melt, which Rolling Stone described as "a captivating trek to the metaphysical and back down to Earth.” Upcoming Tour Dates * with L'Rain and Discovery Zone ^ with Vagabon 7/18 - Des Moines, IA @ Wooly's 7/19 - Minneapolis, MN @ Varsity Theater 7/21 - Chicago, IL @ Pitchfork Music Festival 8/20 - Philadelphia, PA @ Brooklyn Bowl * 8/21 - Silver Spring, MD @ The Fillmore Silver Spring * 8/23 - Richmond, Virginia @ The National * 8/24 - Charlotte, NC @ The Underground * 8/25 - Atlanta, GA @ Buckhead Theatre * 8/27 - Nashville, TN @ Brooklyn Bowl * 8/28 - Indianapolis, IN @ Deluxe * 8/30 - Detroit, MI @ Saint Andrew's Hall * 8/31 - Toronto, ON @ The Concert Hall * 9/01 - Montreal, QC @ Théâtre Beanfield * 9/04 - Brooklyn, NY @ Brooklyn Paramount * 9/05 - New Haven, CT @ Toad's Place * 9/06 - Boston, MA @ Roadrunner * 10/03 - Santa Cruz, CA @ The Catalyst ^ 10/04 - Oakland, CA @ Fox Theater ^ 10/05 - Sacramento, CA @ Ace of Spades ^ 10/07 - Salt Lake City, UT @ The Depot ^ 10/09 - Denver, CO @ The Mission Ballroom ^ 10/11 - Dallas, TX @ Ferris Wheelers ^ 10/12 - Houston, TX @ White Oak Music Hall ^ 10/13 - San Antonio, TX @ Aztec Theatre ^ 10/15 - Austin, TX @ Emo's ^ 10/17 - Albuquerque, NM @ El Rey Theater ^ 10/18 - El Paso, TX @ Lowbrow Palace ^ 10/21 - Santa Ana, CA @ Observatory OC ^ 10/22 - San Diego, CA @ Observatory North Park ^ 10/23 - Los Angeles, CA @ The Wiltern ^ Read the full article

Roofing Basics: Keeping Your Broward County Home Safe and Sound

Living in Broward County offers a lifestyle filled with sunshine and ocean breezes, but it also means facing the challenges of a harsh weather environment. From relentless sun to tropical storms, your roof takes the brunt of the elements, making diligent roof care essential for homeowners. At Fair Contractor Sales Roofing, we’re dedicated to helping you maintain a roof that stands up to these challenges. Here’s a beginner’s guide to simple roofing maintenance that every homeowner can manage.

Key Roof Maintenance Tips for Every Homeowner

Maintaining your roof needn’t be an overwhelming task. Here are a few basic steps that can help keep your roof in excellent condition, protecting your home and extending the lifespan of your roof:

1. Regular Inspection: Twice a year, grab a pair of binoculars and inspect your roof from the ground. Look for missing, cracked, or curled shingles, as well as damaged flashing around chimneys and vents. Spotting small problems early can prevent bigger issues down the line.

2. Clean Your Gutters: Overflowing gutters can cause water to back up and damage your roof, siding, and even the foundation of your house. Clean your gutters in the spring and fall to ensure they’re not blocked with leaves and debris.

3. Trim Trees: Keep tree limbs trimmed back from your roof. Overhanging branches can scrape against roofing materials in the wind and drop debris that collects on your roof, both of which can cause damage.

4. Look for Leaks in Attics and Ceilings: Keep an eye on your attic and ceilings for water stains or mold, which might indicate a leak. Addressing leaks quickly can prevent structural damage to your home.

5. Hire a Professional: Sometimes, roofing issues can be subtle and hard to detect. Hiring a professional for an annual inspection can help identify issues you might have missed. Professionals can also perform maintenance tasks more safely and efficiently due to their training and equipment.

Why Roof Maintenance is Important

Consistent roof maintenance prevents decay and water damage, which can lead to costly repairs and decrease the overall value of your home. A well-maintained roof also improves your home’s insulation and energy efficiency, potentially lowering heating and cooling costs. More importantly, it ensures your family remains safe and dry throughout various weather conditions that hit Broward County.

How Fair Contractor Sales Roofing Can Help

At Fair Contractor Sales Roofing, we understand the local climate and its impact on roofing materials better than anyone. We’re committed to providing Broward County homeowners with reliable, high-quality roofing services. Whether you need a minor repair or a major overhaul, we bring expertise and care to every project.

Don’t wait for a small issue to become a major headache. Contact Fair Contractor Sales Roofing today to schedule a professional inspection or to discuss our maintenance services. Let us help you keep your roof in prime condition, ensuring your home remains safe and secure no matter the weather.
