We had a particularly difficult winter with the cold and snow. For some reason the flowers and shrubs in our yard have been a little slow in coming out. Yesterday as I started to do some cleanup, I had an opportunity to really see the yard, and I was really pleased to see the earth starting to wake up. The dogwood at the top of the driveway is starting it's blossoms, which means the birds especially the hummingbirds will be around, but you need to look quickly to find them. Also, the pachysandra at the base of my trees are starting to blossom, and I had forgotten that they do blossom. I don't remember who, but some time ago an ActiveRain member posted a blog warning about creeping myrtle, and the damage it can do. I do recall commenting about pachysandra and how easy it is to manage and...

In the West end of Waterbury Ct is the most unique collection of homes in the city, in an area known as just The Ridges. Just as the beginning of Oronoke Rd, is the entrance to a selections of homes that can still capture the essence of early Waterbury Ct and the lifestyles of the people that were known to all. The first homes in the subdivision were built in 1933, and all are still standing, updated for modern conveniences, and still offering a touch of elegance. The stone monument at the entrance of the Cul-De-Sac serves as a reminder to those that entered that this was not just any residential neighborhood. The years have removed the guarded exclusivity of this Waterbury, CT subdivision and it has become a neighborhood ideal for raising a family. The tree lines streets maintain the ...

One of the more developed, yet cozy areas of Waterbury Ct would be the Pierpont Rd Area. This access road connecting Meriden Rd and East Main St in Waterbury's Very East End is one of most sought after neighborhoods for housing because of it's convenience to the highways and services. The Pierpont Rdarea is bounded by East Main St to the south, Meriden Rd to the north and Norris St to the West. The Pierpont Rd area is mix of simple residential homes with some small condo complexes, interspersed. The style of home would be a cross of ranches with an occasional cape style. The streets are wide and it's not unusual to see the kids riding their bikes or playing ball. Many of the people who live in this area may well have moved in back in the mid'50's when the homes were first built. Neighbo...

Not an April Fool but a reality. The Federal Tax Rebate program for First Time Home Buyers has just 30 days left for getting as home under contract. This would be the end of the second extension to this program, and in all likelihood, the end of the program completely. For the first quarter of 2010, 42% of all home purchases across the country were by First Time Home buyers who were taking advantage of the 'perfect storm' for their real estate experience. Probably never again will there be the combination of record low mortgage rates, low home prices, and an $8,000 tax rebate to make the transition easier. The program has not had the intended response in stirring our economy, and that may be the basis for not getting it extended. The new home purchase does not need to close by the end ...
