About Clarksville's Rudolphtown

Rudolphtown had its yard sale last Saturday. The turnout was lite compared to past yard sales. But, I did sell most of my "junk". I thought I was going to be prepared this time and have everything priced and ready to put in my yard but, as usual I waited til the last minute and then I ended up running around the house early Saturday morning pulling more stuff out of closets and pricing that I had forgot about.

A neighborhood yard sale works very well for those of us who really don't want to do it but have been overcome by so much stuff. The homeowners association advertises the yard sale and puts up signs so all you have to do is put your "junk" in your front yard. Then, if you decide at the last minute you don't want to participate you don't have to. The best part is Goodwill sends a truck through the neighborhood to pick up any items that didn't sell.

I really don't like having yard sales but I will probably do it again when we have the next one in 5/09.

Welcome to my Rudolphtown blog! Rudolphtown is a great neighborhood where deer and turkey are abundant. It is not unusual to see turkey crossing the road or deer in your backyard.

The neighborhood has different groups that allow neighbors to get to know one another and have fun. We have a Bunko group (pictures below), a book club and a dinner club. We're always open to new ideas that will bring neighbors together.

Rudolphtown has two yard sales per year and the last one for this year will be tomorrow, 9/13/08. Many neighbors participate and there has been a good turn out of buyers.

Since January 08 five houses sold with the average selling price of $311,080, average square footage of 3,736 and average days on the market of 141.
