I look forward to the Tallahassee Real Estate Market update each month provided by Joe Manausa.  It is always informative and well done.  This month was no exception and I think his graph showing how interest rates affect mortgage payments was especially timely.Also, as I try to grow my YouTube C...

We have been enjoying a lot of cauliflower dishes in our home lately so when I saw this recipe, I knew I had to try it.  If it is good enough for Chef Dolores to make for Roy Kelley, I know it is good enough for us.  This dish makes me hungry just thinking about it!  A sauce of oil, maple syrup, ...

I really enjoy the stories of those that work so hard to achieve a better life.  Kathy Streib's post immediately made me think of this quote,“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.” Norman Vincent Peale.  I'd say that being among the stars is a very good place to be. A...

Last month's ActiveRain Challenge was one of my favorite challenges.  I thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone's story.  I think they all should be shared again and again.  George Souto has a particularly interesting story and I knew I had to share it when I read in it that he had a sizeable basebal...

This is great advice from, Bob "RealMan" Timm, for new agents.  It is the one thing that I struggled with for longer than I should have, fear.  Fear of hearing someone say no.  Fear of inadequacy in real estate. Fear of introducing myself as a new agent.  And so many more.  Bob puts things in per...

We are getting our next listing ready for the market and thought it would be fun to share on of the coolest features of the property, the pond.  Imagine coming home to this quiet and relaxing backyard.The pond does have its share of wildlife that visits too.  We spotted four or five turtles enjoy...

Yes, I did steal this Aesop quote from one of our friends within the ActiveRain Community, but I will address that in a bit.About a week ago, I entered our monthly challenge and wrote a bit about my family, Ray Henson and Family.  I relayed a few stories about my family and, in particular, this o...
