I thought I would share with you a few quotes from our late presidents. I find it fascinating to peak into their thoughts at such a poignant time in history.

Three of our presidents actually died on the 4th of July. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe. Adams and Jefferson were close yet far apart on some of their ideas on how we should establish our nation. Reading through letters that they shared it is amazing to read the respectful disagreements that they had over key issues.

 I believe that we are fortunate that these men were able to see the common ground they had and work out their differences for the sake of our nation. I hope that those makeing tough choices today would look back on these great men and strive to do the same... for the sake of us all.

My God! How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy! ~Thomas Jefferson

Let us tenderly and kindly cherish, therefore, the means of knowledge. Let us dare to read, think, speak, and write. ~John Adams

Our country may be likened to a new house. We lack many things, but we possess the most precious of all - liberty! ~James Monroe

Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits. ~Thomas Jefferson

4^th of July quotes-Freedom Earned Education

National honor is the national property of the highest value. ~James Monroe

Educate and inform the whole mass of the people... They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty. ~Thomas Jefferson

I hope our wisdom will grow with our power, and teach us, that the less we use our power the greater it will be. ~Thomas Jefferson

4^th of July Quotes-Life in the USA

As much as I converse with sages and heroes, they have very little of my love and admiration. I long for rural and domestic scene, for the warbling of birds and the prattling of my children. ~John Adams

I always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in providence, for the illumination of the ignorant and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth. ~John Adams

We would like to wish everyone a Happy and Safe 4th of July!!!

Today is such a great day to gather and show your patriotic pride. God bless America!!!!

Happy 4th of July! It's a great day in America. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

Fireworks over the Capitol building, the Washington Memorial, and the Delaware River. Can you just hear the Stars & Stripes Forever? I love to watch the fireworks from the Capitol each 4th of July. Such a patriot and stiring festival. I only wish I could be there in person.

My Florida state representative Scott Plakon emailed out an alert yesterday about this new resolution that just got introduced into the Florida House.  Florida HM19.

The resolution reaffirms that the people of the State of Florida do have sovereign rights granted under the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution as listed in the Bill of Rights. 

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."

Granted that Congress, the Office of the President, and the Supreme Court have for decades continued to trample over these rights and overreach their bounds by asserting the Commerce Clause of the Constitution, but non-the-less the 10th Amendment is still part of our governing documents.

They are trying to get at least 1000 signatures on this resolution by the end of the weekend and are already at 700 something as I write this.  On this Independence Day I kindly request that if you live in Florida to please take a moment of your time to put your name on this resolution. And even if you read this after the 4th of July, please sign on to it anyway.  We The People need all the help we can get to protect us from the radicals in Washington.

Many other states have passed similar resolutions recently.  Here is a quick list. I don't know how much good this will necessarily do. However the louder and greater in number our voices are, the more Washington will listen.

Here is the website to sign the resolution. 

Happy 4th of July to you and your family!  God Bless America!

Happy Fourth of July! It's time for Coronas, wieners (and burgers), friends, and fireworks. One of my favorite holiday traditions is cruising up to Malibu for the fireworks display. Be warned, PCH is going to be a nightmare all day especially once you get past Moonshadows so plan accordingly. Here's where you can check out the fireworks throughout the city:

Malibu - Every year private groups rent at least two barges for fireworks displays on July 4th. This year, to date, permits have been issued for the following privately sponsored fireworks displays: Saturday at 9 p.m. from a barge offshore of Malibu Colony, and 9 p.m. from a barge offshore in the area of the 27900 block of Pacific Coast Highway. (Malibu Times)

From his days with legendary swamp-rockers Creedence Clearwater Revival to a successful solo career, John Fogerty has established himself as one of America's favorite sons, if not a fortunate one. Click hereto buy tickets online. Starts at 7:30 (Metromix)

Marina del Rey  - Marina Beach, 4101 Admiralty Way  - Fireworks are launched from a floating barge in the main channel of the Marina, between Fisherman's Village and the Breakwater. Presented by the famed Zambelli Pyrotechnics. Have yourself an evening of it. Starts at 9pm. (Metromix)

Redondo Beach Fireworks- Seaside Lagoon - 200 Portofino Way, Redondo Beach, CA 90277 - A whole day's worth of fun at the beach-with science workshops, puppet shows and tons of live bands-culminating in an explosive fireworks display around 9:30 p.m. Gates open at 2 p.m.

Have a blast today! Be Safe!  The Po Po will be on high alert as of midnight last night to midnight Sunday evening, so  as always don't drink and drive!

LONG HILL TOWNSHIP MARKET UPDATE

January 2008 - June 2008

Closed Sales - 43

Average Sales Price - $554,276

Average Days On Market - 104

January 2009 - June 2009

Closed Sales - 24

Average Sales Price - $490,416

Average Days On Market - 115

The average sales price of a home in Long Hill Township decreased 11.5% from the first half of 2008 to the first half of 2009. There has also been a drastic drop in sales from last year to this year.

 It still remains a great time to buy a home with the decrease in sales price and the interest rates remaining well under the 7% mark.

If you are a seller be sure your price reflects the current market conditions and not last year's. This will make the difference between your home being marked "SOLD" instead of "EXPIRED!"
