About Sacramento's Land Park

Recently I was asked by a local artist to accompany her and several friends for lunch at the new Scotts Seafood on the River in South Land Park known as the Pocket in Sacramento.

It was actually the second time I had eaten at Scotts but I had not toured the hotel. I was honored to be asked and blown away by my friend's talent.

I knew Claudia was an artist but had no idea the magnitude of her artist qualities until recently.

After being escorted in a white limo from Fretty's Limousine Service and arriving to Scotts Seafood by the River for a delicious lunch and lady's chat session we ventured over to the hotel side at Le Rivage. With the artist in tow we were all mesmerized by her enormous painting of the Goddess of the River in the lobby of Le Rivage.

We have one of our very own here in Sacramento that is of notoriety. And isn't it nice to find a local artist that brings such talent to our community.

Claudia Iudice, artist and friend as well as 55 year resident of Sacramento living in Curtis Park was commissioned by Bob Leach, the builder of Le Rivage Hotel in Land Park on the River to paint several large River scenes for display in the hotel.

Claudia, known as "Carrie" is featured throughout the hotel with many life size paintings. She is also a docent at Crocker Museum and has been featured at many of Sacramento Art shows and galleries.

Land Park has a golden secret on the River at Le Rivage hotel. They are to be commended for show casing local talent like Claudia Iudice.

I highly recommend an evening at Scotts for fine dining in a wonderful atmosphere by the Sacramento River and then a luxury stay at the newly appointed Le Rivage Hotel where Luxury is second nature and Art abounds.

The Land Park and Pocket area of Sacramento is a beautiful area with wonderful homes and great neighborhoods. Land Park is a real estate dream come true now with this exquisite facility for all of us to enjoy.

Here is just a taste of the artwork by Claudia that you will see while staying or visiting at Le Rivage Hotel.

What a great time we had arriving in a stretch limo, having lunch at Scotts and then given a royal tour of the hotel.

Each room in the hotel exhibits original photography taken by the owners on their travels.

It was a privilege to be included in such a wonderful day with such inspiring friends.

Yesterday, I received a pile of emails and numerous phone calls from potential Internet fraud victims. I'd like to alert you to this scam, because it is unlikely that I am the only real estate agent whose identity has been compromised in this manner.

Here is how it works. A woman in Africa goes to Yahoo.com and sets up an email using your name. She used my middle initial, which I use solely for the Department of Real Estate and MLS, which is how I know she did not pick up my name from the various web sites where I post my listings. I am guessing she got it from Realtor.com.

She downloaded my listing photographs and posted my Land Park listing as a home for rent on Craigslist at an incredibly low rental amount. For example, this home would easily rent for $2,000 a month, and she advertised $600 a month, including utilities. She asks would-be renters to send first month's rent and a $200 deposit to her in exchange for the keys, which she promises to send upon receipt of the cash.

You might want to check on yahoo to find out if an impersonator has set up an email account with your name.

I have reported this person to Yahoo, Craigslist, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Division and the Sacramento Police Department.
