This week has some upcoming events of interest. Wednesday, Jan.21, 2009, the Council Zoning Meeting will hold Public Hearings on Amendments to the Comprehensive Zoning Map of the City of Baton Rouge and Parish of East Baton Rouge that includes Plank Rd., Joor Crossing, Southdowns Subdivision, Perkins and Acadian, Destin Place Subd. http://brgov.com/dept/council/agendas/zoning.pdf
The intersection at Coursey Blvd. and Sherwood Forest will be under construction for about 5 months. During this time there will be no left turns in any direction. Plan you routes accordingly. http://www.2theadvocate.com/news/37401384.html 
PEP keeps you up to date on our East Baton Rouge Parish schools. Their recent January 2009 newsletter will get you informed on key issues like the new Secretary of Education in Obama's team, Arne Duncan. Other topics include the Louisiana Department of Education plan for intervention in academically unacceptable schools, the Superintendent Search, and the Magnet Score Rerouting.
Learn about their mission statement and get involved with our community: The PEP Group.
Monday evening as the sun went down, Baton Rouge Tweeters gathered at Chimes East on Coursey Boulevard.
There was good food and fellowship and much amazement at the power of Twitter to call such a diverse group on short notice. It was a first one here and no one knew quite what to expect. College students, Gatorworks techies, grandparents, bankers, outfitters, poker players, Realtors. There were even 3 of us Active Rain bloggers there, some who didn't know each other and hadn't found each other on Active Rain until last night!
Bryan Castillo, Linda Fredericks, and myself.
I was lucky as I just started my account and was able to get in on this first Twitter event in the Baton Rouge area. It was such a success I'm sure there will be more in the future. Much thanks to David Link of Baton Rouge's GatorWorks for organizing this one.
This weekend all the lights will be coming down. So we captured one neighborhood, Woodlake at Bluebonnet to share their beauty. The luminaries were found on most homes, jolly by daylight and glowing in the evening.
Their were many neighborhoods areoung Baton Rouge lighting up. This is one example.
May you have a prosperous 2009.

"My husband and I have worked with Baton Rouge Area Homes and Ann for over three years now. We purchased a townhouse in Baton Rouge in 2001 with Ann, and since then Ann has worked diligently to keep us informed about the market in our area. She has helped us look for property and continues to do so. Ann gave us very useful tips and references when we built our new home. The list could go on and on of the many services Ann provides in the Real Estate business. Most importantly Ann is so prompt and accurate in her response and information, which rates her #1 in customer service in our book! Thanks for all your hard work, Ann!" (During corporate transfer,she sold our home quickly to secure our bonus!)-Galeb Ghaddar, Exxon Mobil -Kiley Ghaddar, Homeowner, Fair Oaks
"Very pleasant experience. BRAH takes full advantage of technology and does a great job of giving the seller feedback on property showings. Ann Dail is a very knowledgeable real estate agent/broker and I have a lot of confidence that the advice she gives her clients is sound" - David Davis, Homeowner, White Oak Landing
"Thank you for this opportunity to share about my experience. The first thing I wanted to say about working with you is that you listened. Secondly, you were compassionate. I was going through a very difficult time and my sadness often got the best of me. You helped me hold it together for the closing of one house and the purchasing of another. I knew I could count on you to tell me the truth and to evaluate offers fairly - using your best judgment to help me make some very important and difficult decisions. You always conveyed that you had my best interest at heart in all my conversations and dealings with you. I knew I had found a prize in you! ." Mary Wilkins, Managed Health Care, Homeowner, Carter Hills, Denham Springs
-Ann Dail sold me my first house and she was absolutely wonderful. I have referred clients to her for both listing and those who need an agent. She has always done a spectacular job for both. Laura Sonnier, Homeowner Parkview Oaks
"Ann was great in helping me find my first home. I was a first time buyer and she made the process completely painless. She was able to explain things in a manner that made sense to me. She always looked out for my best interests. I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends or family looking to purchase a home in the Baton Rouge area." -Scott LaFleur, Stryker Endoskopy Homeowner, Country Ridge
"Baton Rouge Area Homes assisted us with the purchase of a condo for our daughter, an LSU student. We live in Houston, and had no knowledge whatsoever of the Baton Rouge real market. Ann made the process a breeze. She happily spent the time necessary to familiarize us with different areas of the city and with Louisiana real estate laws. A true professional, Ann has stayed in touch with us over the last year, providing names of contractors and companies to assist with maintenance of our property. Our highest recommendation goes to BRAH for anyone looking for a qualified and honest real estate company." -Tom & Debbie Ashley, Houston, Texas
"Baton Rouge Area Homes was very helpful in helping me purchase my first home. My agent, Ann, was always willing to show me a home at the last minute and was very knowledgeable when I had questions. As a first time buyer I had many questions and/or concerns with purchasing a home, but Ann was always honest, forth coming and patient with me. I highly recommend Baton Rouge Area Homes to anyone looking to purchase or sell your home. If you're looking for a company with integrity, character, and honesty, then Baton Rouge Area Homes is the choice for you. -Angie J. Brown, Pennington Biomedical Homeowner, Perkins Village
"My experience with buying a home through Baton Rouge Area Homes was definitely a good one. Ann's knowledge and experience made me feel at ease throughout the home buying process. I have already recommended Baton Rouge Area Homes to friends and family and will continue to do so in the future." -Aaron Gothreaux, First Time HomeBuyer Homeowner, Stumberg Place
