During the past weekend, I noticed several groups of folks picking up trash along Old Phoenix Road. As lovely as the scenary is throughout Lake Country, trash on the sides of our roads can certainly negate the beauty. Undoubtedly, these good people were part of the new Adopt-A-Roadway program recently approved by the Putnam County Board of Commissioners. If you would like to adopt an area for yourself, you can find more information at the county website (www.putnamcountyga.us). The link to the application form is provided below:

Driving past my old home this weekend I passed my good friend's business just south of Greensboro. Dr. Rob Durham operates his Veterinary Clinic just south of Greensboro off of the Old Eatonton Highway. Recently, he completed some renovations and landscaping to include new fencing and two sharp looking 
signs at the entrance to the clinic. These new signs tell of a unique family history.
"Doc" Durham started his practice in 1938 after graduating from the Vet school at the University of Georgia. His legacy is commemorated on the sign shown to the left.
Dr. Bobby Durham graduated from the UGA Vet School in the 1960's and joined his dad in practice. Dr. Rob Durham followed in his dad and grandfather, completing his veterinary studies at UGA in the 1980's. Rob has since taken over most of the practice, taking on two more doctors to assist with the increased area business.
Whether you have small or large animal needs, you can certainly depend on the doctors at Durham Veterinary Clinic. Call the number on the sign below whenever you 
require veterinary services.
Dr. David Lowther (Southeastern Radiotherapy) and Dr. Bob Cowles (Cowles Clinic) are hosting a healthcare town hall meeting on Thursday, Aug 20th from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at the Spotlight Theaters of Lake Oconee.
Unlike most of the town hall meetings seen on television, this event is not sponsored by a political party affiliate or PAC. Here is an excerpt from the flyer that has been circulated to area businesses:
This event, like Town Hall #1, is being organized by no political party, PAC, or organization and is the result of the efforts of a few concerned neighbors taking their free time to help in any way possible to explain and discuss the elements of HR 3200 and their potential effects on the citizens of the Lake Oconee area. None of the participants is an elected official and therefore has no power to affect policy beyond what anyone in the audience is capable of doing themselves. This is not intended to be an event at which all questions or concerns are going to be discussed or solved. It is a venue only to discuss concerns. Therefore, please be courteous and respectful of all you come in contact with, regardless of opinion.
1. Respectful, organized, courteous participation
2. No signs, no exceptions
3. A healthy, upbeat attitude !
This will, by necessity, be a first come/first served basis for seating so come early !
Refreshments will be offered at significant discounts to all participants courtesy of the management of Spotlight Theatres.
The Spotlight Theaters is located at 1050 Parkside Main, adjacent to the Publix Shopping Center near Reynolds Plantation. www.spotlighttheatres.com/find_us_parkside.php

The Real Estate business is one of relationships; of finding solutions to sometimes complex problems facing customers and/or clients. Surveys have repeatedly indicated that there are several things important to you when it comes to selecting an agent. You desire:
1. An Agent who listens and seeks to understand and meet your Real Estate needs and expectations.
2. An Agent who places your objectives foremost in the Real Estate process, whether you are buying or selling.

4. An Agent who "goes the extra mile" to make difficulties transparent to you, ensuring your desires and expectations are achieved to the greatest extent possible.
5. An Agent who remains your most valuable source of information concerning the local area and any Real Estate-related issues, even after the completion of a business transaction.

I grew up in the area I now serve, having lived in Greeensboro and Eatonton, GA. The native residents of the counties surrounding our two lakes (Lake Oconee and Lake Sinclair) are some of the best folks you will ever meet. I am blessed to know them and call them friends. Likewise, the growth around the lakes have brought in new neighbors who are very involved in our communities. Their presence and participation in our schools, local governments and businesses have made this an even better place to live. I make new acquaintances each day which provide the real joy I receive from my Real Estate business.
