Today, while I was showing homes in the Silver Spring/Takoma Park, MD area, I happened upon the perfect home for my family and me. It was love at first sight! As I got out of my car, I happened to glance over to the neighbor's yard and spotted this: How awesome is that? I could immediately envision my girls playing right there (while mom is sipping a freshly brewed coffee on the back porch)... The perfect home for me has to have an awesome back yard - or at least the potential to be awesome - this home had it all. Check out the details .. are these cedar shingles on the roof? I bet there's a bucket attached to the rope and it even has sparkly lights all around! Too bad this Takoma Park (tree) house is not for sale!

One of my favorite authors, Sarah Ban Breathnach lived in this colonial house located in Takoma Park, Md.  She lived here from 1980 to 1998, while she was married to Takoma Park's Former Mayor. This is the house where she wrote my all time favorite book - Simple Abundance - a daybook of comfort and joy.  The book was published in 1995 and became a runaway bestseller after Sarah made an appearance on Oprah. Takoma Park, Maryland is mentioned several times in the bookI got my, now dog eared, well worn copy of this book in 1998.  This book never ceases to amaze me.  The book is set up as daily meditations, there is a meditation for every day of the year.  If you know me, you know I've never been the "meditating" type, but I have always loved this book and use it like a daily bible of sorts...

Our clients were looking for a larger house in Silver Spring or Takoma Park. They were living in a small home in the Del Ray Neighborhood of Alexandria, Va.  The clients wanted enough space for their extended family, mom and dad were planning on moving from California to live with them and they wanted to plan for a second baby.After putting their home in Virgina on the market and looking for many months, this one came along!  It was not easy and involved moving out of their house in Virginia that had sold and moving into a hotel with a small child for a while. They were delayed, waiting for the seller and lender to get their acts together. Long story short - I think they will tell everybody that it was all worth it to finally move into this Gorgeous Big Craftsman Bungalow, overlooking S...

Matt Drudge is the creator, owner and editor of the Drudge Report, a news aggregation website.  He is probably most famous for being the first to break the Monica Lewinsky scandal story in 1998.  His headlines and links to stories are often salacious like this one: "Man beats elderly woman to death with air conditioning unit..." or this one "Woman faces charges in mummified boyfriend case .."I have to admit, when I first heard of the Drudge Report, I thought it was a small rag magazine or newspaper named Drudge, because it "drudged" up dirt on people.  Until I looked it up, I didn't know that is was named for a guy that grew up Takoma Park and went to Blair High School in Silver Spring.Matt Drudge grew up in this adorable 2 bedroom, 1 bath "Santa Fe" type cottage, built 1941 in the Hist...
