Apple Cup 2010 - Pullman WA

Excitement is always in the air when Apple Cup comes to Pullman Washington!  Apple Cup is our annual football rivalry game between the Washington State Cougars and the Washington Huskies for the much coveted Apple Cup Trophy.  Each year at the end of the season we meet to play this all important game to us here in Washington.

This year the big game will be here in Pullman and folks from all over the state are pouring into town today to begin the festivities prior to kick off on Saturday at 4. As a loyal Cougar Fan living in the heart of Cougar ville here in Pullman I am delighted to see the snow.  And it is going to be cold too.  It is forecasted to be a high of 27 tomorrow.  Now for those who know me, they know I don't like the Snow...and I don't like the Cold....too much anyway.  It is fine for a while near the Holiday time....and of course.....Apple Cup time.  

So Go Cougs!  And for those traveling to Pullman today, drive carefully.  And Welcome to Pullman!

Pullman Washington Supports Our Cougars....GO COUGS!

Cougar Plaza Pullman WA Lori Cofer Realtor®Pullman Washington, home of Washington State University, has been my home now for many years.  I love the small, friendly hometown feel of our great community.  And I love helping relocating clients to explore our corner on the border of Washington and Idaho.  

We are uniquely situated.  Spokane Washington is only about 1 1/2 hours to the North.  I personally love taking a quick trip up to Spokane and go often as I did on Tuesday.  We also have so many great outdoor escapes nearby.  If you want to take a quick hike you might try lovely Kamiak Butte.  It is only about 20 minutes North and provides fantastic views of the rolling hills of the Palouse and is a favorite for those new to Pullman.  Moscow Idaho, home of the University of Idaho, is only 15 minutes east of us, has great shopping and a fantastic Farmer's Market on Saturday.

Our town in Pullman consists of about 25, 000 residents.  That size nearly doubles once the students at WSU come to their second home in Pullman.  It sure keeps our community young at heart for sure!  And we enjoy so many wonderful benefits from hosting the university.

One of the best has got to be the Sports!  We take Cougar Athletics very seriously!   This weekend we will be jammed packed with the first Cougar Football Game! Football is definitely a great kick off to a great Sports Season  here in Pullman!   The one things you have to know about Cougs is they are tremendously loyal fans.  Folks from all over with come for the game and tailgating will be the order of the day!  

Wishing you a great Season!  Go COUGS!

Pullman Washington Prepares For WSU Fall Session 2010!

Washington State University  ~ Lori Cofer Realtor®

Pullman is on the verge of nearly doubling in size this week!  Washington State University is about to start its fall session for 2010.  It is always an amazing transformation for sure.

From the third week of July till about the second week of August, Pullman is always very quiet.  It is the time when Summer Session is over and most of our residents take their summer vacations.  I have been surprised to see how busy I have been in our  Real Estate Market here in Pullman during this quiet time.

The Seniors are now back getting their houses ready for Rush at WSU. The streets go from bare to jam packed.  It is a time honored tradition and full of lots of fun and energy as new recruits go from house to house finishing the week with pledging.  And many will go downtown Friday evening for the celebration of Pullman's National Lentil Festival.  Hope to see you there!  Come by and say Hi at the Beasley Real Estate booth!

Beat the Clock! WSU Fall Session 2010 is On Our Heels!

 

In Pullman we are on the verge of the students returning to Fall Session here at Washington State University. Many of the businesses, Fraternities and Sororities are all getting ready for the onslaught of returning students and faculty.

Campus is still pretty bare, but lots of workman are madly trying to beat the clock.  One of the jobs I have enjoyed is watching the skill of the masonry as he restored a nearby building.  Over the course of the summer, I have watched him bring that beautiful brick back to life.  First, he painstakingly cleaned the brick bringing back a vibrancy that I had never seen in the building.  Then he careful went in and re-pointed the entire structure.  On Sunday I saw him swaying high in the air on a platform as he rebuilt the chimney.  Before you know it the students will be returning.

It also looks like they are making headway on the clock tower.  All summer it sat without the clock in the tower.  Yesterday I saw that the clock face was now returned but the hands not yet attached.  Time is running out...Don't I know it, we need to get the family businesses up and going...

Washington State University - Summer Session

Yesterday was the last day of first session Summer School at Washington State University.   There still remains a second and a third session.  The first session of Summer School has been   unusually rainy and cold weather as the Pacific Northwest has been pelted with storm after storm. But at least yesterday and today the Sun is out and shinning bright. 

Summer is unusual here in Pullman.  The majority of students go home during their Summer break.  It leaves a quiet hush in Pullman.  I found it ironic today as I looked out the window to see the clock tower at WSU down for repairs during the summer.  It is as if time stands still waiting for the students to once again return. 

WSU Summer Session

 

This same scene in a mere 6 weeks will be full of hustle and bustle as the nearby sororities and fraternities get their houses open in preparation for Rush, andthe dormitories explode overnight as well. Living in a College Town has it's own change of Seasons, both seasonal and around our wonderful Washington State University.   Go COUGS!

College Hill Pullman Washington ~ A great place to live while at WSU

 

 Washington State University Pullman WACollege Hill  is found in the north east section of Pullman, and is one of four major hills that make up Pullman.  There are four major hills that comprise Pullman.   In addition to College Hill there is Military Hill found in the north west section of town, Sunnyside Hill found in the south west part of town, and Pioneer Hill found in the north west section of town.

Pullman contains a wonderful mix of both locals as well as students.  If fact, according to city data for Pullman,  Pullman is listed #51 on the list of Top 100 cities with highest percentage of college students!

Washington State University, which is often called WSU or Wazzu,  was the original and largest land-grant university and was founded in 1890. Thus the homes near the heart of the university are vintage in nature.   There are also some very wonderful homes that have a wonderful and unique nature from the 60s and 70's.  

The desirability of many of these homes is the fact that they are close  to the College, especially within walking distance.   Students especially enjoy living in the heart of campus. Professors traditionally enjoy living more on the outskirts of College life but within walking distance, especially in view our awareness of the importance of saving our national resources and living green.
