Steve Grobl Real Estate announces the 2004 Historic Highways Driving Tour contest winners. In the closest finish ever, 78 minutes separated first and second places.

Matt and Lisa Hanlon, with sons Matthew and Luke, took top honors and the $200 prize.

Roger Wood, left (with Kyle, Andy, and Joey on deck), split the $100 prize. Katie Wood says, “the boys deserve all the glory.”

Lisa and Roger identified Lake Pepin and Ralph Samuelson; answered Mr. McGregor’s garden/McGregor, Iowa; pinpointed the Blackhawk Bridge at Lansing, Iowa; and named Winona, Minnesota.

In this contest, time was of the essence. In a real estate transaction your agent must keep everyone focused on the big picture, while not letting negotiations over personal property—an appliance, for instance—allow another bidder time to emerge. At Steve Grobl Real Estate your dreams come first, refrigerators second.

Congratulations to all of our participants. We hope you join us for the 2005 contest!
