Wonderful Wordless Wednesday in Downtown Harriman, TN...

If you know me you will know that I'm rarely wordless and most of the time I have to have the last word in, even if it's whispered as I'm walking out of the room. I may be the only one to hear that last word but as least I've gotten it in the conversation.

Well, this past Saturday I was somewhat wordless in Downtown Harriman Tennessee as I watched this lovely group of young people spend 2+ hours picking up trash in my little town. We had about 40-50 teens from area churches give of their time to make our little town look good.

Below is a picture of the teens taking a lunch break in my office.

Totally Tight Tuesday...

This is C.J. and Seth. They're standing in front of C.J.'s Dad's Barber Shop, Kingston Barber Shop.

C.J.'s Dad is Jamey, you may have read an earlier post with a picture of Seth and Jamey. Jamey was the boy's baseball coach this season. It was a fantastic season and so much of that had to do with Jamey and how he worked with the boys.

C.J. and Seth are part of the Kingston All-Stars. They are getting ready for the Tennessee Dixie Youth State Tournament which will be in our county the weekend of July 14-17. The haircut they're sporting is to get them psyched and ready to play ball.

If you're passing through Roane County, Tennessee and need a hair cut, be sure and give Jamey a call. You can choose something other than what the boys have chosen. If you are passing through Roane County, Tennessee and need information about real estate, call Mountains to Lakes Real Estate!

Wordless Wednesday...

This has been a fantastic baseball season for Seth this year. His team finished first (championship pictures to follow) in their league. He made all stars and is practicing several times a week for all stars.

This is a picture of Seth and his coach Jamie Davis. Jamie made this year really special for the boys. He's alot of fun and taught the boys how to have fun and play like a team. Instead of trophies the boys were given T-shirts with their team name on the front and pictures of baseballs on the back with their name and number inside the baseball.

Wish us luck for all stars!

What kind of lots have been selling in Oak Ridge, Tennessee 37830 this year, 2011?

Since January 1, 2011, the only lots that have sold in Oak Ridge, Tennessee are ones in Rarity Ridge.

The average list price for those lots was $14,288 and the average sale price was $9,156.

That is an amazingly low price for a lot in Oak Ridge, but Rarity Ridge eventually went in foreclosure and was recently sold again.

Speechless Sunday at Redbones With Clients...

I am so thankful for clients, especially in this day and time. For many, clients may be few and far between. I have been blessed with a steady stream of clients over the last few years and continue to be blessed.

Tonight I had the pleasure of dining with my newest client (buyer). We had dinner at Redbones, out on the patio and were entertained with music by Kimber Cleveland, a very perky young lady with a voice similar to Cheryl Crowe or Janice Joplin. Other than the evening being extremely warm, I wouldn't have changed a thing!
