And the Rains Came . . .
Ida’s winds have receded but the rain is what you’d expect with a tropical system. As of 8 this morning, we’ve had 5 inches so far. I hope I don’t jinx things, but we haven’t had any power or water interruptions yet either, so my coffee’s fresh and hot and ...

(My 5-year-old+ laptop finally called it quits and I’ve been switching over to a new computer system since Friday – most of my programs and files are now playing together nicely but still have a few glitches to work out. The MLS doesn’t want to give me the links I ...

Little Gator at Sea Cliffs
Here’s something you don’t see every day. Spotted this little fella, about 3 to 4 foot in length, in the retaining pond at Sea Cliffs up by the state park while I was out showing property.
