CreekStone Homes: Remembering 9/11

Just take a moment today to remember 9/11, and all the hero's that helped in the aftermath, and the families of the ones who lost there life.

I'll never forget I was at a food show in Detroit, checkinig out the competition for afollowing show. I arrived at the show before 8am and didn't leave for lunch until about 11:30. I walked into a Red Robin, the place was absolutely packed with people but it was silent. I was seated and asked the waitress why it was so quiet, with a tear in her eye she said, "you didn't hear," so my friend mark and I turned to watch the TV and were in shock. It was the first time I ever prayed at a restaurant, and we ate in silence.

Just take some time today and remember where you were on that fateful day. I'd love to hear.

CreekStone Homes: Someone out there is building a REAL nice house.

I am just amazed at the nerve of some people. In the worst (but changing) real estate market in years, I can't believe that people are still breaking into our inventory homes and stealing...Over and over again, I just don't get it. The police can't help, deductibles on insurance are too high so it is left to us the builder to fix, replace, and repair.

We quit putting TV's in our model homes years ago (after they were all stolen) But now people are after, windows, cabinets, a/c units, a/c line sets, and hot water heaters (god bless copper) Last nights occurrence in an established neighborhood, with neighbors on all sides, our microwave was stolen, what can a stolen microwave be worth? Damage was caused, the model now looks bad, the oven was on the list too but is was just moved not taken. It just frustrates me to holy heck...

So I just let it go and say to myself- "someone is building a real nice home, can't wait to see it!"
