Northwest Airlines Merges With Delta Airlines ~ Discount Airfare - 10/31/08 11:39 AM
I am a frequent flyer with NW Airlines and received an email from them yesterday that they are merging with Delta. Seems to be a lot of this going on lately huh?
My World Perks membership stays in place and I get to keep all of my accumulated miles, so that's encouraging. I just have to wonder about fare and service changes. Of course it is always a plus when fares drop and services improve but how often does that happen? I can only hope!
I also discovered Allegiant Airlines recently and wanted to share them with you. Their fares are rock … (12 comments)

To my Readers:
This encouraging post from my friend Cameron Wilson gives sound advice to buyers. Right now is a good time to buy! We need to stop listening to the negative slant the media is pushing on us all the time and look at things in a positive and professional manner.

Brookings, OR. ~ Rainbow Rock....Brookings Condo Market Report October 17, 2008 - 10/17/08 04:01 PM

Rainbow Rock is named for the colorful ribbons of different layers of rock at the bottom of the small hill along the beach. This beach is very difficult to get to because it is alongside Highway 101 and the access is pretty much a cliff! There is a vista point turn off on a wide shoulder of the highway and that is how I achieved these photos.
Brookings offers many condominium possibilities. To rent as vacation getaways or to purchase, as investment or primary residences. Pictured here is Rainbow Rock Condominiums, one of many condo units in the Brookings area.

Brookings, OR. ~ Port of Brookings-Harbor - 10/13/08 04:11 PM
THE PORT OF BROOKINGS - HARBOR is the busiest recreational port on the Oregon Coast.
I believe that it is one of the most beautiful ports. I probably feel this way because I live here and it offers me a place to moor our sailboat as well as a place to walk and enjoy the beach!
The Port of Brookings - Harbor has suffered financial woes in the past and also the present. But I think that the Port commissioners, management and staff will find ways to fix the problems because the port is too important for our community.

Lake Shasta is All Dried Up! - 10/08/08 08:27 PM
This past weekend we went on a small trip to Redding, California and stayed in a cabin at Tsasdi Resort on Lake Shasta. Only problem was .... there was no lake. We went on the Dam tour and the Dam tour guide explained the fact that the Lake gets 90% of it's water from rainfall and only 10% from snow melt. And since they have not received any rain since February 2008 it's the lowest I have ever seen it. (BTW Shasta Dam is the 2nd largest dam in the country....I didn't know that until this weekend!)

Today's News You May Not Be Hearing - 10/08/08 03:59 PM
I just had lunch with my husband this afternoon and he was telling me he had heard a report on the radio this morning that August's home sales were up! Very good news indeed. Then when I came back to work and logged onto AR I found this encouraging post by Sarah Eubanks and I just had to re-blog this wonderful report.
I am a very optimistic person and always hopeful and it encourages me to continue in this vein when I hear news like this. I have to agree with Sarah that we are by no means out of the woods, … (7 comments)
