Believe it or not, I had this house listed about 20 years ago.  The tree was crowding the storage room even then.

Why is it that we always want to go on vacations?  Do new things?  Travel to foreign parts? I guess it's our sense of curiosity.  It is also good for us to go places, see things, do different things, witness other cultures.  One of my fellow Realtors just got back from a tour of Italy.  She staye...

Everyone needs to take off for a short time and just be with friends and visit another town.  I have just returned from Branson Missouri after a two night stay there.  Branson appears to be the vacation mecca of the South if you don't want to gamble.  It has so many shows to choose from, all whol...
