I have become involved with the Woodlands TX tea party and we need your help. In the next 24 hours we would like to see as many people as possible here in the local area send letters to the editors of our local papers. We need to let them know that we are tired of their bail outs, their excessive spending and this movement that we are seeing towards socialism. In this way we can communicate our frustration with our tax and spend government as well as offer our support for The Woodlands Tax Day Tea Party. If the editors receive enough of these letters they may decide to run our press release about The Woodlands Tea party as a news worthy piece.
There are some guidelines that you need to follow. Be sure to state your opinion whether it be fear of socialism (you would think we would have figured that one out by Europe's mistakes), high taxation, taking from rich to GIVE to the poor, concern for small businesses, for me this extra tax on that $600 tax rebate stimulus is an issue ect. etc etc. You get the idea. We are all perturbed and we need to let our voices be heard. We do ask that you do not insult Obama. Now if you want to insult this tax and spend congress and Geithner go for it. Please somewhere in the letter state that this is why I will be attending The Woodlands TX tea party on April 15th, to get a message to Washington that we are the People and our opinion does matter. (You want to write the letter as though it is an opinion page letter. It should not be written as a PR piece for the event that is why we are only asking you to mention The Woodlands Tax Day Tea Party and the date and time.)
* Letters MUST include name, address and telephone numbers (often for verification purposes, local papers will print letters from residents in the area-The Villager for Woodlands and (maybe some Spring) residents only. Houston Chronicle will print letters from all over Houston area.)
I'm going to give you the email addresses for Woodlands Villager and the Houston Chronicle. You can email your opinions straight to them. Click to the right here for the email address of the Houston Chronicle and click to the right here for the email address of The Woodlands Villager. You may know of other places. We can also write to all the local TV stations, voicing our opinions and reminding them about The Woodlands Tax Day Tea Party. If we log in to the stations' web sites we can write letters from there. IF you would like a more complete list please email me and I will send you an attachment with a more complete list of local newspapers and television stations.

I'm just enjoying a quiet day at the lake!
WOO HOO you look a little lonely over there!
And I have one more thing to tell you!
Meanwhile on the other side of the lake, I have an itch!
Okay I was at this little subdivision lake in The Woodlands at Cochran's Crossing to take pictures for one of my listings and then all these birds distracted me. The Woodlands has wonderful trails and community lakes and this is just one example.

Please join us on Wednesday April 15th2009 for a The Woodlands-Spring-North Houston Tax Day T.E.A Party (Taxed Enough Already!). After you drop off you IRS check at the Post Office stop by Rob Fleming Park in the newest Woodland Village (Creekside Village); located just south of S
pring Creek in Harris County. The tax day tea party is taking place from 5:00 to 9:00 PM but you may come and go at any time during that time period.
It will be a peaceful gathering to unite our voices and express our love for this great nation we live in and the principles it was founded on. Join your neighbors to let Washington know how you feel about filing your tax return and how the government is using your money! We want to let our politicians hear loud and clear that we are not happy with the wasteful spending that is going on. We are not happy with the bailouts and the push towards socialization. We want less Government not more!!!
Personally I think our forefathers would roll over in their grave if they saw what our government is doing. Our forefathers fought for our independence so we would not have heavy taxation, we would have free speech and a land for the free and the brave. If you want to be a part of history and exercise our right to free speech and the peaceful reclamation of our country then please join us April 15th at Rob Fleming Park.
If you would like to get involved with planning the event there is still time. Please go to this facebook page for more information about the event. You may also visit the website at http://www.teapartynorthhouston.org/ or email at thewoodlands.teaparty@gmail.com.
Planning meetings will take place on April 6th and April 13that the Creekside Pavilion. There are numerous committees and you can plug in to one of them and 
add your talents.
The tea party is taking place at the Craftsman Style Pavilion in Rob Flemings Park at Creekside Village Park in The Woodlands. Please note this is taking place at the newest village which is located in Harris County. Creekside Village is located between Gosling and Kukendahl. If you are coming from Gosling you will go west on Creekside Forest. If you are coming from Kuykendahl you will go east on Creekside Forest. From what is typically considered The Woodlands you will need to go south and cross the bridge either at Kukendahl or Gosling. If you are going north in Harris Country towards The Woodlands and you get to the bridge you have went too far.
I have had a number of phone calls about the directions so I am adding a map. This is not going to be on Google maps as the road is fairly new.
Get involved! It's time to take back America. If you would like to contact me directly to hear more all my contact information is below.

My last market report was 6 months ago; with what is going on in the National economy I thought I would compare this report with the previous report. 6 months ago there were 50 properties on the market there are now 36. The average list price per square foot was $98 as of March 22nd 2009; the current average is $93.82 per square foot. This is not something you are going to hear on the national news but for whatever reasont he average sales price has went up in the last 6 months.

From March to September 2008 67 properties were closed. In the last 6 months 39 properties were closed. There were less homes sold but do keep in mind this would have been during Hurricane Ike and the fall selling season. The average sales price on the MLS today for the last 6 months was $92.09. In the previous 6 months the average sales price was $86.09. I found the days on the market to be very similar the present average was 83 and 6 months ago the average was 78. Overall I found Windrose to be a fairly strong market.

Spring Texas covers a large geographic area located along I-45, about 20 miles north of Houston. Most of Spring is in unincorporated Northwest Harris County but part of Spring extends in to unincorporated Montgomery County. Spring" does not have official boundaries since it is not incorporated; there is not an actual town of Spring. The area is close enough to Houston to be able to enjoy the amenities but far enough away to still feel like you are in the country. It is very accessible to the amenities of the Woodlands
The Spring area covers three different school districts. To the east of I-45 in Harris county you will find Spring ISD. To the west of I-45 also in Harris county is Klein ISD and to the north in Montgomery county is Conroe ISD.
Golf is big around the Spring area with many golf course communities such as Augusta Pines, Gleannloch Farms
, Windrose and Northampton to name a few. They all offer exceptional amenities with a variety of lakes, walking paths, aquatic centers, equestrian complexes and community centers.
The area was settled by German immigrants in 1840. The Wunsche family settled in the area and began farming the land. The area had a tremendous growth after the railroad was built through the town in 1871. The town served as a railroad center in the early 1900's. You can visit the Spring Texas Historical Museum to find out a more complete history of the area.
Old Town Spring is a restored railroad village of the early 1900s with some 150 shops featuring antiques, arts, crafts, clothing, and restaurants. It is open Tues.-Sat. 10 a.m. - 5 p.m., Sun. noon- 5 p.m. I-45 at Spring Cypress Road, Exit 70A, and one mile east.
The area is booming with many new shopping facilities opening up. A new Wal-mart has been built at the corner of 2920 and Kuykendahl which has made shopping much more accessible for the rural areas of Spring.
Tomball Texas is located approximately 28 miles northwest of Houston along State Highway 249. Unlike most of Northwest Harris County which is unincorporated the city of Tomball is an actual town. The City of Tomball has a local government, city ordinances, public works, city council, community center. The City's slogan is the hometown with a heart and with the warm friendly people they truly are.
With a rich history; the town has been around for over 90 years. It was first a railroad town and then became an oil town. The town was named after State Senator Thomas Henry Ball in 1907. Thomas Ball helped the town get established as a railroad center. Dramatic changes happened back in 1933 when oil hit. A 100-foot gusher totally changed the area attracting hundreds of new people to the community. The city made a deal with Humble Oil and Gas allowing them to drill in the city. As part of the agreement the residents had free oil and gas for 50 years. The town was featured in Ripley's Believe It or Not as being the only city with free gas and water and no cemetery.
Magnolia Texas is located about 45 minutes to an hour from the city. If you are looking for a home on land close to the city this is the place to go. Magnolia TX Real estate is booming with country subdivisions popping up all over the place. All you have to do to enjoy the landscape is look around you will find beautiful forest, rolling hills and much more. The town in the last few years has experienced phenomenal growth.
Horses and Magnolia TX goes together. This is the area where you can find horse property and still be able to commute to the city. The town has several stores that stock feed, supplies, tack, clothing and more. It is not hard to find veterinary services in and around the Magnolia area. If you don't have a horse, no problem, there are plenty of horses for sale around Magnolia. Typically the country subdivisions will allow one horse per acre.
The town of Magnolia is actually very small as you enter the city there is a sign that says population 1,111. Now the market area of Magnolia is HUGE. It extends from FM 2978 to the East of the town of Magnolia clear over to Roberts Cemetery Road on the west side of Magnolia
The Woodlands located along I-45, about 25 miles north of Houston in Montgomery county. The newest village is being built in Harris County just to the south. It is one of the original master planned communities in the nation. From its inception in 1974, the Woodlands have continued its concept of blending nature with today's modern conveniences. This creates a lifestyle unequalled almost anywhere in America. The Woodlands is nestled in 27,000 acres of towering pines, oaks, dogwoods and other assorted vegetation. You sometimes feel like you have to search through the trees to find anything but that is the ambiance of the Woodlands.

Some of the community events that are organized include a Fourth of July parade, the First NightTM New Year's Eve celebration, National Night Out, art shows, flea markets, Earth Day, and dozens of other neighbor-to
-neighbor events. The developer is always looking for ways to better the Woodlands, such as giving Free trees away on Arbor Day. Free seeds are made available at the wildflower festival through the Lion's Club.
