Florida Keys Real Estate and Activities

This is a really great post.  I think that it would be good to ready daily just to start the day with a little light reading, humor, and motivation.  Thanks Pam for the fun post! The older I get the more I realize how smart my mother & Dr. Suess are. Yes, Dr. Suess may have some crazy rhymes and ...

Dave, this blog is music to my ears.  I too try to find some extra time and money during the Holiday season to help others.  In my area I have just recently starting volunteering (http://activerain.com/blogsview/2009849/great-cause-getting-attention-in-gainesville-va) on a weekly basis with House...

What a great blog!  I just downloaded Evernote and took a picture of something with my Palm Pre Plus that would have been a pain to find a pen, paper, and write it down (not to mention find that piece of paper later when I needed it).  After taking the picutre I checked my laptop and miraculously...

Ok, just a quick post to say that I am enamored with the new color touch-screen Nook from Barnes & Noble.  My son has it on his Christmas list this year so I have been doing a lot of research on it.  I have been in the Barnes & Noble store twice this weekend and spent some quality time at their f...

This coming from someone who professes to work my business through referrals!  I know there is much controversy over print ads, flyers, post cards, car magnets and the like.  I personally think that anything that gets your name in front of potential clients is a great thing.  That being said I al...

As I have mentioned in a previous blog, Long & Foster in Gainesville, VA is collecting for "Coats for Kids" this year and I am spear-heading the distribution. I went into the office on Monday and found our box was overflowing.  So, I set out calling the local schools for a "wish list" of coats an...

An agent in my Long & Foster office in Gainesville, VA passed this along to her fellow agents, so I am passing it along to all of you. When filling out your holiday cards this year, set aside an extra card and send it to this address: A Recovering American Soldier c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Cen...

This is so true, and something I have learned recently.  I have a seller who wants to wait until the Spring (and I didn't argue with her at the time), but I am going to approach her with this same logic.  I think that she has a better chance of finding a serious buyer this winter, especially with...

Are you tired of spending money on greeting cards for the Holidays that don't meet your expectations?  Ever thought about saving yourself a lot of money and doing it yourself?  You don't have to be a skilled crafter or photographer.  All you need is a camera, some paper, two sided tape, a decent ...
