2008 

While looking through my old junk, I found this self-promotion advertisement that I mailed out in 1993.  That is the year that I went to work for RE/MAX Advantage.  Well, the truth is my friends found it and showed it me.  They'd saved it because they liked it. It really is irrelevant that when ...

  Anita's husband, Robert, has sent me this old photograph of Searcy's first jail.  I looked at it and thought it was a mighty nice structure.  Look at the fancy brickwork and the elaborate work around the door!  It appears to be a nice home with bars. My next-office neighbor, Jim Baugh, who grew...

  This old hotel is still in Searcy AR and still being lived in.  I don't believe it is a hotel anymore but more of a permanent home for people and office space for businesses.  It is within walking distance to our Spring Park, where people used to go for herbal water treatments.  We had a deligh...

I received a call from a person at one of my listings wanting to see it.  I started in on the qualifying bit and he said he can pay cash!  I then asked for his name and he gave it to me.  I recognized the name from the week before when he'd been at another house wanting to see it.  I'd put him of...

Hubby and I don't watch TV together at all.  He has it all to himself.  Sports, sports, or sports and sometimes weather make up his happiness.  He controls the remote.  Me?  I'm addicted to activerain or a book and don't watch TV.  He even has his own TV in his private bathroom.  You see, we have...

  This building was a familiar sight in Searcy Arkansas for many years.  It was torn down just about a year or two ago in order to make room for a Walgreen's Store on the old Truman Baker Cheverolet corner at Race and Main Streets.  It had changed over the years but not a whole lot.  It was made ...

   My broker often brings his 9 year old son to work with him because he lives in an area with no playmates for the child.  Rainey is a character and all of us sorta pamper him and sometimes cater to him.  He asks to do chores for us for a few cents pay.He came into my office the other day and sa...

  This is another picture of Searcy Arkansas and is reportedly the West side of North Spruce Street.  I put up one about three days ago that showed this same area or a part of the area but it appeared to be posed with gentlemen dressed in finery.  This appears to be a more likely scene with peopl...

I've just had the most interesting conversation with a fellow agent.  With the theft of copper becoming so rampant everyone, I suppose, is trying to protect their house.This agent went to show houses and probably had 14 to show.  During the tour she approached a house that she'd been told was vac...

  This is another picture of Searcy Arkansas White County taken so many years ago.  I love the guy on the light pole who may have climbed up there for the photo.  I would assume photos were a big deal then.  Do you think there were people on the streets for the photo or were there that many loite...
