The sunset Friday Sept. 12, 2008 was spectacular and a little scary. What the pictures do not show is the trees are already whipping to and fro, you could tell that there would be trees down before morning, and the clouds were moving fast in a circular motion unlike the regular straight in from the coast winds before a storm clouds that we are used to. I stood out for the longest staring at the sky and watching the changes wondering what the night would hold for us. As the sun set in flaming colors, I knew that it would be a different world when morning came.
From the moment I got out of my car and realized, wow, "that's Jason Crouch" who pulled in behind me, I knew it was going to be a different day! The day definitely was not disappointing. I learned so much about different aspects of social networking, blogging and internet sites that I feel my head is going to burst. I will be able to apply so much of what was talked about without feeling overwhelmed with all the different aspects that you can stay connected to the technology available today.
This day really made learning fun, there was none of that three o'clock blues of when is this thing gonna end.
Met a lot of nice people and folks who I already knew from their blogs. The thing was all day I felt like I never meet a stranger, we were already connected.
Thank you, Thank you, Active Rain for hosting this event in my backyard.

Conroe's First Thur Concert In on July 3rd was a great evening to jump start the long weekend! I had clients all day so we missed the first band, but arrived during set up of Joe Ely.
We moseyed down and spread out blanket about 15 feet from the stage, The park was packed but not crowded and the evening breeze kicked in to cool to concert goers down,
The biggest surprise was the accordion player, WOW!! He sounded fantastic, never knew the accordion was such a versatile sounding instrument.
Michael and I had a great time and the best part was the total price for the evening (beside gas) was a whopping $2.50 cents for the popcorn and snow-cone. 
Then to top the evening off we stopped a one of Conroe's fairly new restaurants for Chinese take out
Lake Conroe and the Greater Montgomery County is where I live, work and play. Call me for "no pressure" real estate help with a realtor who puts people first!
I work hard to help my clients make the best informed decision for themselves and their family. Customer service, due diligence, honesty, and integrity. My clients agenda is MY agenda, they are first and foremost in my thought and actions. This is not about "making a sale" it is about the people!
I love my work and it shows through to my clients!
When not working you can find me down on the farm or out on the lake! Beside family, my animals, the fur children take first place in my life. The horses the dogs and of course the cats. Horseback riding in the national forest is a favorite pastime. When not out messing with the fur children, you can find me out on the Lake, headed off to the beach or my other favorite pastime concerts...Woodland's Pavillion here I come! Country, Classic Rock, Classical, Jam or Jazz, I am not choosey I love it all.
