Hello Everyone (Well, at least the few that come by to comment). I appreciate my little circle of supporters. You guys are the best. I thank any one else that decides to stop by. With all the talk about the economy and the slowing of the housing market. I wondered what people would do if they had to come up with Plan B, at least part time. Well I love real estate(except for the people)LOL. I've been doing it for 13 yrs and have done pretty well, I believe. But if I had to, and I might again, even part time because I do love it. It is very much a part of who I am. I did this for 7 1/2 years and still do it on special occasions. This is one of the things I did to earn a living before I was a RE/MAX Broker/Owner and would again if need be This photo "Yes", that's me. My hair was longer then. This photo was taken in Evington Va.(where I lived at the time)in 1994. These are an awesome group of guys and I loved working with them

THE BAND IS "RAGING COUNTRY

Top L-The drummer-Chris Smith Bottom left-Terry Rexrode-Lead Guitarist

Wiley Bolen is the sound guy & then me. Tommy Hall Steel guitarist(bottom right)

I have a professional tape of the band singing and wanted to share a song or two with all of you. However, I don't know how to transfer it from the tape, to the computer, to a link you could click on and listen to. I will if anybody wants, after I find out how to do it myself or ask someone who does know how. If you'd like me to do so just ask when you comment.

These are pics were taken at the Grand Opening of Lowes in Lynchburg Va

I also did hair for seventeen years(1980-1997) and loved it but there isn't as much money doing hair as there is in real estate, at least that was before the housing market got bad. So this is something else I could do if I have to do keep a roof over my head and food for all my fur babies. If you'd like to share some of your hidden talents in your life before real estate, feel free to do so. My beauty shop was located just a short distance from where my office at RE/MAX is. As you can see from the photo on the right. I got into celebrating the holidays. Hope you enjoyed the trip down my memory lane.

This was a recent trip to this park for our company picnic. We had a lot of fun and ate a lot of great food!

Living in Virginia I think sometimes we take for granted some of our beautiful sights. Here are some recent photo's of the Blue Ridge Parkway. What a beautiful and glorious Virginia sight. There is a saying that we need to stop and smell the roses but iIthink we need to take a drive along this beautiful parkway to remind us of how beautiful this parkway truly is
