The Jet City

This site was originally created as a web site, as opposed to a blog, for Jet City Real Estate. At one time I wanted to have a Real Estate Brokerage. Simply by luck our contracting business started doing well, and we diverted more energy into that. My wife started doing regularly scheduled house cleanings, because she is really good at it. Then her brother started working in the business, then his wife, and it all snow balled. We now have a great cleaning service, a house painting company, and we do yard work using casual labor. The Brokerage never took off.

This page is for the links I was collecting. We would like to add more nostolgia about the golden era of Seattle which was around the time of the Seattle World’s Fair. If you have something from around that time you can put it into the comment section.
