I saw 2 articles today promoting free.

The first was in the Courier Journal Neighborhood section, Photography by Ray is doing free 5x7 photos of your kids (with costume) in Crestwood, KY on Halloween from 2-6pm. Need to bring a canned good for Dare to Care.

Mayor Jerry invited everyone down to the river on Oct 24 for a farwell trip on the Delta Queen. It is losing Federal Grants and is being shipped out.

Got an email with some better info about the Delta Queen and what is going on, worth taking a look at:

"Your blog came to me this morning via a google alert - I would like to correct some mis-information that it contains. Since we are still working to Save the DELTA QUEEN, this information could be harmful. Mainly, the DQ has never ever operated with government grants, and that's not what she needs now. Since the 1960's she has operated with special exemptions from Congress because she mistakenly had been included in A Safety Of Lives At Sea (SOLAS) law because she has a wooden superstructure. Of course, she doesn't ever go to sea, only operates on the rivers, where she can make a landing and evacuate in minutes. It's all a big mess, and so very sad that we are going to lose another piece of our history. This is due to ONE Representative who has refused to let the bill for her new exemption out of his Committee - not due to safety factors, but due to Unions and politics! If you care to learn more, go to www.steamboats.org where there are links to our Save the Delta Queen campaign. Also, there will be no rides on the 24th when the boat is in Louisville - this never happens, as she carries overnight passengers on all her trips (unlike the BELLE who does day trips) - due to Homeland Security, no one can even go aboard and visit any more. Take your family down to the landing and let them see the last overnight steamboat in America - they'll enjoy it! I'm sure you'll get a calliope comcert.................."

With gas below $3, these might be worth the trip.

Well, we have had a little rain in Oldham County. Ground is wet. We have been under a "burn ban" for a few weeks, but with the recent rainfall the ban has been lifted. So, if you want to fire up some smores or hot dogs, they say it is ok.

Here is the article, Burn baby burn.

We are moving swiftly in to October and the end of the year is coming fast. For those in business the fourth quarter has started and with such wonderful news in the financial and credit markets and the stock market daily swings several hundred points one way or the other have builders with lots of inventory dropping prices to get things off their books by the end of the year and create some cash flow or at the very least, stop heaving cash on interest every month.

I saw Monsour Builders drop their prices on some of their new homes by over $20,000. That is substantial, on a close to $200,000 house that is or is close to a 10% drop in price.

Also, if you are looking to spend a few more dollars, there have been some pretty good price drops in Beech Spring Farm as well. Most builders would be happy to start a conversation about price this time of year.

There are more out there. Let me know if there is a particular area you are hunting and I will see if there are any potential deals to be made.
