“Mustang Sally Better Slow That Mustang Down”
“Mustang Sally better slow that Mustang down!” Yes it’s time again for the 21st annual Ford Mustang Roundup. This weekend the streets of Steamboat Springs will be filled with 450 Mustangs of every year and model. A variety of events occur throughout the weekend but my personal favorite takes place on Saturday June 20th when Lincoln Avenue will be closed to traffic from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. between 5th and 10th street allowing the Mustangs to show off their shine and grandeur. Strolling down the road seeing all of the classic and modern Mustangs and conversing with the owners is always an annual favorite.
Another Father’s Day favorite event is hiking up to the top of the Gondola and enjoying their tremendous brunch. From there my wife, Janet, and I will be joining our friends for our weekly “Sunday” round of golf. The winner is proudly presented with the winner’s jacket ala the Master’s tournament. Our jacket is passed on week to week and each winner is responsible in adding something to the jacket. The jacket itself is a rather hideous blue with gold piping. If you are looking to finance you may want to take a fresh look at FHA (Federal Housing Administration) programs. The FHA was created in 1934 and used extensively during the 40’s to help finance military housing and homes for returning veterans and their families. FHA funding has fallen out of favor in the past few years for a variety of reasons, one of which was a complaint that FHA appraisal guidelines were too stringent and the appraisers were too picky. The focus has shifted away from “picky” items like cracked windows and leaky faucets. The FHA is now concentrating on the overall valuation of the property. With the changes and streamlined features that the FHA has made there may be an opportunity to get better terms and better pricing then conventional loans.
