I just have to share how good it feels to get in the holiday spirit!
We had our Benicia tree lighting street open house last night. What a great time! I saw friends and clients I hadn't seen for months. Everyone was happy and having a good time.
We had our double doors open for everyone to come in and sit with Santa. Children, no, people of all ages, stopped in to see Santa and enjoy the festivities. Todd Willis, a fellow Realtor, did an outstanding job of being Santa and wowed the kids with his charm and good cheer. … (8 comments)

benicia: Delta & Dawn: Glad to see them come, but happier to see them go! - 05/30/07 11:10 AM
The wandering humpback whales, Delta and Dawn came to visit Benicia the other day. They had wandered inland all the way up the Sacramento Delta area, seemed to be confused about which way to go back. As we all watched our TV's hoping they would get going, sure enough they did. Back down to the Rio Vista area and then stalled again. They seemed to be leary of passing under the bridge, and swam around for over a day until they started moving again. On Memorial Day they swam under the Benicia-Martinez Bridge, hurray. Lucky Benicians got to do a little … (4 comments)
