estero florida: Which Flavor of Fruit Filling Does A "Pop Tart" Agent Have? - 10/29/07 02:53 AM
Do you know what a pop tart agent is? If you're a buyer a seller or another agent, you need to know if you don't know. Here's the skinny: A pop tart agent gets a phone call and runs out the door to let someone in a property know little to know information about a buyer, their history, their financial/creditworthiness or ability to buy. Just like a toaster ~ Pop!A pop tart agent has car load of buyers and they drive by a home with a for sale sign and call while sitting in front of the home. They want to see it

estero florida: Corkscrew Road - Mining Protest - 10/19/07 05:08 PM
If you live on or near East Corkscrew Road, let's face it: Traffic and most especially heavy equipment construction traffic is a big, fat issue. I have heard the story before. Just yesterday I was behind a beige truck on Pennsylvania Avenue in Bonita Springs, yesterday, and thought: "This person believes so much in the Corkscrew protest that she tattooed her truck"! For the record, Corkscrew Road is in Estero, Florida, but it's a stone's throw...a matter of a mile or two from Bonita Springs, Florida. The East Corkscrew Road rural community is protecting and preserving the rural nature and quality of

estero florida: Estero Florida Bad Ass - Bruce Lee, Joe & Power Tools - 10/02/07 06:30 PM
Yes, Bad Ass! At the corner of Three Oaks Parkway and Corkscrew Road in Estero, Florida a new plaza has just been finished. If you've driven by you've, no doubt, marveled at the Lowes Home store. It's so cute! They made it appear like a row of bungalow homes but it's a box store. In that same plaza there is an out parcel building with several smaller shops. One of the shops is Bad Ass Coffee. Since the sign went up everyone has been talking - Have you been to Bad Ass? Not me, not yet. I snapped a few pictures of

estero florida: Bonita Springs Arts District - 09/24/07 07:19 AM
While the Bonita Springs and Estero areas await the completion of the Arts District it's important to note the other venues that offer the arts and entertainment. Most notably, The Naples Philharmonic Center - Daniels Pavilion more commonly know to locals at "The Phil" and Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall. Bonita Springs is located dead center between the two venues. The fall season for performing arts is just kicking off. Tickets are available online and at the box office for a variety of shows, concerts, ballet and acts. Personally, I've had the opportunity to attend performances at both Halls. At The Phil

estero florida: Storm Free - Bonita Springs Rounds the Bend of Storm Season - 09/23/07 09:50 AM
Hallelujah! We're on the cusp of entering October and we've not seen a storm yet! If you're not familiar, June through November is prime storm (hurricane) season in the southeast. A few years back we took a beating down here in Bonita Springs, Florida. Well, this year we had a reprieve; a well earned respite from tropical winds. The fact of the matter is Southwest Florida and the Bonita Springs area has enjoyed a long history of very few storms. What?! Southwest Florida has actually seen fewer storms than most of the Southeast. Take a look at this hurricane history map. Bonita

estero florida: Estero Florida Sunset - Estero High School v Ida Baker - 09/16/07 07:09 AM
Estero played their first home game Friday, Sept 14 against Baker. Bummer, defeated - score is irrelevant. It was tied minutes before half time. The thunder started rolling and I made tracks. Since I didn't have a kid on the field this year I didn't feel obligated to chance death sitting on metal bleecher in a thunderstorm. Better luck next Friday, boys. Estero plays Cape Coral Mariner next Friday at Home. If you're looking for the full season schedule: Estero High Football Schedule.

estero florida: Luna Pizza - Estero - The BEST Pizza in Town! - 09/10/07 06:41 AM
Who doesn't want to know where to get the best slice in town? Anywhere you go, you want to know....at least I do. Well, I've saved everyone in Bonita Springs and Estero the bother wading through bad pizza. Luna Pizza in Estero is the BEST in Bonita Springs and Estero. Period. It's over 10 miles from my home and I make trip past a dozen other pizza joints just to pick it up. They offer pizza by the slice or whole pie. My favorite pizza at Luna Pizza is their version of a Martguerita pizza - Fresh tomato, fresh mozzarella - fresh basil.

estero florida: Go Past Coconut Road & Turn Right on Memory Lane - 09/06/07 08:08 PM
Tonight I ran an errand with the Prada Purse (my dog that has cost as much as a Prada bag to keep alive). We headed to Estero to check one of my listings in Colonial Oaks. On the way back I cut down Williams Road and passed Estero High School. **sigh** Before I got to the train tracks I u-turned and headed back. Beside the high shool is an area that is the back half of Estero Community Park. It was put in a few years ago and is mostly the ball fields for Pop Warner sports. The football players were
