Columbus Ga, Fort Benning News: Turner construction of Huntsville Al. has been awarded a 335 million dollar bid to build the new hospital at Fort Benning. The new facility will be nearly 750,000 square feet in size and will replace Martin Army Hospital. The soldiers and retirees at Fort Benning will have a first class health care facility when the construction is completed approximately 3 years from now.

Columbus Ga - Fort Benning News: The 3rd Heavy Brigade Combat Team is on the move, back to Iraq. In the next few weeks 3600 soldiers will return to Iraq, several hundred members of the Sledgehammer Brigade have already departed.
This is the fourth deployment to Iraq for the 3rd Heavy Brigade Combat Team. No other unit has been deployed as often. Kelley Hill, the home of the Sledgehammer Brigade at Fort Benning will seem eerily empty as the Brigade moves out.
It has been hard on the soldiers and the families of the Sledgehammer Brigade, but the soldiers continue to serve and the families continue to wait. I personally want to thank our soldiers at Fort Benning and all over the world. Your families, friends and neighbors await your return home. God Bless You!

I have been a Realtor in Columbus Ga for twenty one years. I try to keep my posts on a local level or real estate related. I could not help writing about the Nobel Prize in economics. All the fuss over the Peace prize left some very fine Americans under appreciated. Thank you Jeannine Aversa, Karl Ritter and Matt Moore for publishing the names and story of the NOBEL PRIZE WINNERS IN ECONOMICS.

Elinor Ostrom of Indiana became the first woman to win a Nobel Prize in economics. Oliver Williamson was also a winner in the field and the two shared the 1.4 million dollar prize.

Thanks again to the Associated Press for printing their story where I could find it.

The new (Taj Mahal) on Macon Road in Columbus Ga, will soon be home to hundreds of Muscogee County School District staffers and educators. The controversial construction is completed and School Board member Phillip Schley has come up with a name. MUSCOGEE COUNTY PUBLIC EDUCATION CENTER sounds pretty good. The name fits and guess what, it is the Muscogee County Public Education Center. If I may suggest to the rest of the Board Members, go with it. Don't spend thousands of dollars hiring consultants to research the name. It won't get any better. Save the taxpayers a few bucks and yourselves some bad press.

96,000 sq ft of space that once was part of the SEARS parking lot. It is a good looking prime property with plenty of room to add on. I am sure the Muscogee County School District will make good use of it. I am also certain that it will serve the community for many years.

Al Capone's former hideout / former tourist attraction sold on the court house steps in Hayward Wisconsin. Chippewa Valley Bank was the only bidder, it was also the bank that foreclosed. Capone's retreat in Northern Wisconsin featured 18 inch thick stone walls and guard towers. Nine separate buildings on the property also included a bunk house and a jail. The property sold for 2.6 million dollars.

Sawyer County Wisconsin has much more to offer than Capone's Hideout. The northwoods are beautiful and relaxing. Hayward Lakes is an equally striking destination with plenty of antique stores, and artisans. Canoeing, horse back riding through the forests and lumberjack exhibitions are high on the list of things to do. You can also find the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame and Museum here. If these attractions aren't enough to fill your days, this is golf country too. There are plenty of challenges on a number of golf courses in the area. I'm from Columbus Ga. but Fishing, Golf, fresh air in Hayward and Sawyer County Wisconsin sounds really inviting.
