Salinas, CA

Our Monterey County listing in South Salinas was posted on MLS yesterday and it's already generated 3 offers. Part of the reason is that we aggressively marketed the property even while we were waiting for the Listing Agreement and price. We hosted an Open House and posted the property on Craig's List while we were waiting for the Listing Agreement and price! Our own website which is syndicated to Yahoo, Google, Vast, HotPod, Trulia and Homescape also generated a lot of info requests for the property. The results are more qualified, pre-screened buyers with less probability of cancelations! We got more than 12 buyers who had called and got on the waiting list for us to notify them and their agents when the price becomes available. What works for you?! We invite your comments.

A few blogs ago I posted about the deer in my backyard and included a few photos; one with my dog Charlie looking at the deer in the window. Well, last week I found the photo that I thought that I had lost.

One day will making lunch, I saw what I thought was a large cat, dog? I looked up and saw that it was not a cat or a dog well it was a large cat..a bobcat!!! I had heard that they are in the area but I not seen one before so close!

My new Nikon was on the kitchen counter and without even thinking, I ran back to my bedroom..in the direction that the bobcat was headed and I opened the bedroom door (I still can't believe that I did that!) and proceed to take a photo of the majestic cat! He turned and ran down the hill (lucky for me) and as he looked back I was able to take this photo of him. I have not seen him since!

This morning while I was cleaning of my desktop computer and working on my next blog idea, I came across these two photos that I wanted to share with those folks that live at Las Palmas Ranch as I do. We all know there are deer here. That is a given. Especially when your precious roses disappear. But these photos are amazing and show just how comfortable and unafraid the deer are in this this area.

This photo is taken from across the room in my kitchen. It was a good thing my camera was lying on the counter and handy!

Well then my little 9# cockapoo, Charlie got all excited and barked and barked. This deer didn't care he just looked up and kept on eating!

They can be a pain sometimes but they are just doing what they do. I actually enjoyed watching them as they ate and marched on by.

I couldn't resist This weeks issue of OFF68 has a featured article on twins and yes, I am included in that article. It was so much fun to meet other twins in the area and I am hoping to form a twins group at Las Palmas. Although that has been a challange. There is a great twins group that just formed and meets monthly at Parent's Place in Pacific Grove. So for those of you that are interested in seeing the photos and reading the article, please go to:
