About Lulu and Tim Blodgett
Lulu was born and raised in Chihuahua, Chihuahua Mexico. Tim was born and raised in Michigan and served in the Army from 91 to 99. Lulu is a Realtor licensed in Texas and New Mexico., while Tim is a Project Manager for the Department of Veterans Affairs. We both love to travel. Lulu while growing up did much of her travel with her family in Mexico and South West USA. Tim traveled throughout Northern Michigan with his Grandparents and Mother. Tim's Grandpa owned an old late 1800s Log one room cabin and remembers the family vacations. Lulu's Father had always wanted to build a cabin just outside of Chihuahua, Lulu’s home town and planned to call it the “El Chalet “. So, in 2020 Lulu and Tim started our search for our own El Chalet and closed on this wonderful home in January 2021 and quickly named it “The El Chalet” in honor of her father.
