I'm not sure you can actually have a one picture photoblog, but lets give it a try. The original picture was taken this year at St. Michaels, MD. Just one of a gazillion pictures of sailboats. From my perspective it was an ok picture, a keeper but not something to go ga-ga about. The pictures bel...

REALTORS® are like the Swiss Army Knives when it comes to communicating with clients. Whatever their style is, we adapt.

Here are a few photos from the past years visits. The military remembers it's own at the Tomb of ...

We Crofton MD residents do love our tall, stately Oak Trees for the beauty and shade that they provide all summer. Now that summer is over though, all I can say is, UGH! The annual Crofton chore of leaf collection is in full progress from now until mid to end December. As a matter of fact, those ...
