Honoring Presidents Day with some early Presidential Firsts   Once in the White House, each President made his mark in different ways. In fact, before Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President, came to office, the White House wasn't even called the White House! People called the building the President's Palace, President's House, and the Executive Mansion. Roosevelt officially named it the White House in 1901.   Theodore Roosevelt wasn't the only President to invent a new expression. Martin Van Buren, the eighth President, is sometimes credited with creating the word "OK." Van Buren was from Kinderhook, New York. During his campaign, Old Kinderhook (O.K.) clubs formed to support the President. Later, "OK" or "okay," came to mean "all right." Bet you never knew that was where that word came... 02/05/2014

It’s something we all can do and make our town and the world a better place.   Everyone of us has been a grouch at one time or another... okay, some more than others. Some people are seemingly grouches all of the time.  It's in their nature. Others are occasional grouches, influenced by events in their lives, lack of sleep, the weather, maybe they didn't get to the mountains this year for vacation, etc.  A few people are good at disguising their grouchy mood, but we all still need cheering up.   So today, can you look around for someone who is in a grouchy mood? Then, do him or her a favor that will cheer up their day. There's... 02/05/2014

Just how cold is it in Murphy, NC today? Well, its been really cold all over the country, but today it was 0.0 degrees when we woke up in the Murphy, NC mountains.

Why We Chose Real Estate - Moving to the Murphy NC Mountains! Sometimes it takes half your lifetime to find the right profession and place to live, work and play. I grew up in Homestead, Florida but my Grandparents had a summer home in the cool mountains in the small town of Burnsville, NC. This is where we spent all our summers and most of that time was spent down in the Cattail Creek that flowed right outside the home. Those summers continued as I became an adult and it was on a December vacation up to Burnsville that I first saw snow on Christmas Day.  Fast forward to meeting the most patient, caring and funniest person I know, my husband Lee. We lived in North Miami Beach, FL where Lee worked in the film industry as a Grip for commercials and movies and I in downtown Miami as a grap... 06/16/2013

Father's Day in the United States is on the third Sunday of June. It celebrates the contribution that fathers and father figures make for their children's lives.
