News and views for Tuesday.

As of today, year to date the Kosciusko County MLS system has a total 1,612 active listings in the system.  Those active properties have been on the market for an average of 226 days.  YTD sold properties 181, having a median price of $101,250.  These sold properties as a group were on the market 153 days.  This kind of trend is normal coming out of winter.  With the sun shinning and warmer weather has the phone ringing.  We expect these numbers to change quickly in the next four weeks.

Traveling the CTA

For $2 you can see just about anything in Chicago. Some things you may wish you didn't see!

2 thumbs up for the Soup Box

A small little eatery on Broadway in Chicago features a choice of many soups and bread at a very, by Chicago standards, affordable price. No, this is not the home of the "Soup Nazi". Try it out 2943 N Broadway, Chicago, 773.935.9800 http://www.thesoupbox.com

"Scoop" a man of many talents.

Local cub reporter shows that he has many skills. Including surfing and playing guitar at the same time.

Pizza King, Syracuse, Indiana

Nothing beats a "Pat's Special" and a picture of brew. If you have never had a one try it! I recommend a side of barbecue sauce to dip your pizza in.

Meet Lydia

Head teller at 1st Source Bank downtown and a active and outspoken member of the local Habitat Organization board of directors. She is quite at home behind the counter where she keeps your money is safe. What a different story on the street where following her jaywalking and crossing against the light will certainly not keep your life as safe as your money.

One Happy Barista

Coffee served with a smile everyday at Courthouse Coffee downtown. Some what like Cheers "Where everyone seems to know your name". Make sure you mention you saw this picture. It won't get you a discount but the embarrassment caused will be worth it.

Ghost Reappears Downtown

As work progresses on the Munchie downtown the old sign to Sengers Department store makes a reappearance. Soon this building will be a brewery but it's past as a clothing store, furniture store, hotel, and other uses can be found from time to time.

LaPasida on Winona Ave

Check out the great lunch buffet on Winona Ave. It is just like being in Mexico. Order a coke (in the bottle) to complete the whole package.
