The City of Brandon held their Annual Easter Egg Hunt Thursday evening at Shiloh Park. Hundreds of children came to the ball fields to race for the colorful eggs and to jump in the giant inflatables. Four ball fields contained over 2000 eggs each to accommodate the excited children. The well-organized hunt enabled the younger children to collect eggs in their own age category while the older children played until their turn on adjoining fields. Several lucky participants grabbed the "prize" eggs and received special Easter baskets filled with stuffed animals, candy, and other treats. Although many cities held their hunts earlier in the season, Flowood's Winners Circle Park will host an Easter Egg hunt Saturday afternoon from 3-5 p.m.   Hope you have an EGG~cellent Easter!

The onset of Daylight Savings Time gave our family an extra hour to spend outdoors Sunday, and we spent the time at Lakeshore Park in Brandon, off Spillway Road. It was a great March afternoon, perfect for flying a kite, grilling burgers and hot dogs, playing on the swings, or tossing a frisbee.         It wasn't crowded, but over 300 people enjoyed the spring-like weather at the park Sunday afternoon. Besides Lakeshore Park, there are several parks and trails located along the Ross Barnett Reservoir for hiking, boating, tennis, and soccer. Throughout Ridgeland, Madison, Flowood and Brandon, there are over 20 parks for fun family activities, like Old Trace Park, Freedom Ridge, and Wolcott Park in Ridgeland.                 Visit The Rez for more information about waterfront parks throug...

It rarely snows in Mississippi, so when it does, it virtually causes all activity to cease. School was either cancelled or dismissed early due to the winter storm that hit central Mississippi today.     Rain, sleet, and snow pelted the Jackson Metro area early this morning, and noon time temperature reached a mere 36 degrees today. It is quite a slushy mess. Bridges are iced over, and a Winter Storm Warning is in effect until 6:00 p.m. today. Since the southern states are not equipped to handle snow and ice accumulation, it is recommended that you stay indoors unless absolutely necessary to travel. (This photo taken a day BEFORE the snow.) Tomorrow's projected temperature is expected to return to a more normal 50 degrees. To see live weather cams of the Mississippi area, click here. Pho...

It was the perfect family. Charming husband, beautiful wife, two amazing kids. Happy Little Family They had just bought a house in a nice well established neighborhood and were putting the finishing touches on their remodel projects. Dad thought he had it all. The only thing that could make it better would be a new baby. He had been trying to talk his wife into having another child for some time and she was not interested. Well one day as Dad was relaxing on the couch Mom came in to give him some big news. Lazy Dad "There is going to be a new addition to the family." "A baby? We are having a baby? I am so excited", said Dad, "This is going to be great. We can turn the office into a nursery...." "A baby?", Mom interupted. "I don't think so. I told you, we are done." "Then what are you ta...

  Gary S Smith built the largest independent real estate brokerage company in the state of Mississippi and spent 23 years becoming a household name in the Jackson, MS metro area.  It has been a pleasure to work under Gary's direction and learn at his School of Real Estate when I started in the business.  Gary started LCTV with a 30 minute real estate show many years ago and created a unique avenue to market homes for sale.  As a company we are merging with Century 21 Masselle and Associates and look forward to a positive future servicing our clients in the Jackson, MS area including Brandon, Madison, Pearl, Ridgeland, Flowood, Byram, and Canton.  Becoming affiliated with a national company was the only thing left to do... We always delivered the "WOW!"

The Kroger Company opened their new 64000 square foot supermarket at 1070 Spillway Circle in Brandon's Reservoir area a week ago. The long-awaited opening was extremely well received by hundreds of local residents. My two visits to the store thus far were positive shopping experiences. Kroger has an impressive selection in their produce department, the organic section is awesome, and their fresh seafood section; yum!   There is a sushi bar, prepared fresh daily, a soup and salad bar, and an olive bar. (I highly recommend the sushi.)    The store opened at the corner of Spillway Road and Northshore Parkway in northwest Rankin County. Although there is another Kroger a few miles down the road at Dogwood Promenade, the addition of this store is a welcome relief to those of us who live and ...

No Major Purchase of Any Kind This includes furniture, appliances, electronic equipment, jewelry, vacations, expensive weddings...and automobiles, of course.When you get a raise or accumulate some savings, you may find yourself confronted by an innate instinct of modern civilized men and women.... the desire to spend money.  It begins simply, by going out to restaurants, and then accelerates to purchasing clothing, electronic gadgets, and since North Americans have a special fondness for the automobile, you may even buy a "brand new car." If you're married or ambitious, a few months later your thoughts eventually turn toward buying your own home. Or a move-up home, if you are already a homeowner. Next, you contact a loan officer to get pre-qualified for a mortgage loan. You state your ...

Not all fires are the same. Some fires smolder and smoke for hours before flaming up and some fires burn quick without much smoke.  It makes good sense to install an alarm with duel detection features. The most popular type sold in the U.S. today is the Ionization alarm. This type monitors ‘ions,' or electrically charged particles in the air. Air molecules in a sample chamber are ‘ionized' by a radioactive source. This allows a small electrical current flow. Smoke particles entering the sensing chamber change the electrical balance of the air. When combustion (smoke) particles enter the alarm, they obstruct the flow of the current. An alarm is pre-programmed to sound when the current gets too low. Ionization smoke alarms respond first to fast flaming fires. A flaming fire devours combus...
