belmont bay: Does Flapping My Wings On Take Off Count? - 05/20/12 07:53 AM
The boaters know to pay attention to the no wake signs as the come in and out of Belmont Bay in Woodbridge VA. I wonder if the Osrpey know to slow their speed as well? For anyone who likes to watch Osprey fish and listen to their calls the Belmont Bay area and the Occoquan Bay Wildlife Refuge will give you lots of opportunities.

belmont bay: Do You Know What A "Red Flag" Warning Means In Woodbridge VA? - 04/10/12 05:32 PM
It means with high winds and dry conditions there is a high chance of brush fires starting. Warnings have been given not to throw cigarettes into brush, out car windows and to be careful that you keep your charcoal grill in check. This is what happens when you don't. This fire spread from one end of the wetland area in Belmont Bay within 5 minutes. Fortunately two fire trucks were able to arrive on the scene and keep it from going any further. One truck is still standing watch since the winds are gusting up to 30 MPH. Pay attention to … (14 comments)

belmont bay: A Golfers Worst Nightmare-Water And Sand Trap All In One - 12/28/11 09:35 AM
After the rainstorm yesterday I headed out for a walk along the Osprey Golf course in Belmont Bay. Couldn't help but laugh when I saw the sand trap on the 18th was now also a new water hazzard. I'm sure any golfers headed out today hope the sun will hope this sand trap doesn't turn into the Double Boogie Blues for them.

belmont bay: Speechless Sunday-The Ghost Boats On Belmont Bay - 12/04/11 11:00 AM
One of the interesting things about life in Belmont Bay is the fog that rolls in during the winter months. For those who live close to the Belmont Bay Marina there will be many mornings when you can't see the Occoquan River. Yet drive less than 1/2 mile away to the "upper" part of the neighborhood and the sun is shining. Whenever I see the fog on the marina I wonder about the ships that crossed through this area in the 1600 and 1700's. Did they ever had to drop anchor and wait for the fog to clear as … (14 comments)

belmont bay: Speechless Sunday-Can You Wear White After Labor Day? - 11/13/11 10:44 AM
If this rose in Belmont Bay has a say, then the no white after Labor Day rule no longer applies.
Even though we've had frost on the ground the last couple of days this rose is still blooming and gives any one who walks by a beautiful show and a wonderful whiff of sweet aroma. It goes to show that Mother Nature doesn't always follow the rules when it comes to seasonal wear.

belmont bay: Will You Panic When You Realize the Aliens Have Landed? - 11/07/11 04:54 PM
I could attempt to turn this into a post about even something remotely related to real estate but I'm not feeling very creative. Whenever I see a Praying Mantis up close I wonder if this is where all of the drawings of alien faces strarted. This one was a biggie and moving quite slow across the path in the park this afternoon. Just like me trying to soak a few rays of sun before it heads below the horizon. Glad I'm not small enough to be his or her dinner.

belmont bay: Speechless Sunday-Hanging On To Summer As Long As I Can - 10/23/11 10:24 AM
On this morning's stroll in Belmont Bay it was a brisk 40 degrees. Despite the chill in the air this rose is still hanging on the to the warmth of the daytime sun. Most of us where the leaves are changing colors can understand the hope of soaking in a few more days of sunshine before the cold winter months sink in.Hope you have a beautiful fall day where ever you are this weekend.Photo taken with iPhone

belmont bay: Friday Fotos-Putting On A Happy Face At The End Of A Rainy Day - 09/23/11 10:28 PM
Driving home tonight I spied this rainbow over the Belmont Bay marina. Fortunately my camera was in the car and a number of my neighbors were out enjoying this sight as well. After a long gray rainy day the rainbow was a welcome sight. Just another good reason why Belmont Bay is a great place to call home.

belmont bay: Never Mess With Mother Nature-The Occoquan River After Tropical Storm Lee - 09/09/11 09:59 AM
Though there are harder hit areas along the east coast of the US from both Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee, Northern Virginia hasn't escaped the rath of the storm. This morning I decided to head out to take a look at Occcoquan River to see how she was faring with all of the rain.
The historic Town of Occoquan was flooded last night from Balliwick Creek (not the river itself) overflowing but fortunately this morning the water had receded from the streets. However the Occoquan River is still raging and with it still raining everyone is on high alert.

belmont bay: Speechless Sunday-Ahoy Matey Land Ahead - 09/04/11 08:49 AM
Most pirates had parrots but for the owners of this boat in Belmont Bay their feathered friend happens to be an Osprey. Finding the perfect perch to help spot land ahead or perhaps dinner in the Occoquan River is important for survival. Now if we could just teach these guys to talk we'd have a perfect second mate.

belmont bay: Irene It Was Nice To Meet You Now Pack Your Bags And Go Away - 08/28/11 09:43 AM
Not to make light of Hurricane Irene but at least in my area she was primarily just an annoying storm. It is always better to be prepared than not but there are times when the weather teams make me want to scream. If people are stuck inside diverting all normal TV programing for 24 hour news coverage is a bit over the top. We'd like to see something more entertaining than someone standing in the rain. I'm just saying.In Belmont Bay we've had more damage from the fast moving summer thunderstorms than we did from Hurricane Irene. The water levels did … (12 comments)

belmont bay: Hurricane Preparation-NAH Not Me I've Got Something Better To Do - 08/27/11 08:22 AM
I was surprised to look out my window this morning to see golfers out on the Osprey Golf Course in Belmont Bay. I guess they have all of their hurricane supplies and decided it they still had time to get in 18 holes before the rain started. Gives new meaning to the phrase "playing through."

belmont bay: Even A Dragon Fly Needs To Take A Break Now And Then - 07/09/11 09:15 PM
It seems most Realtors® are on the go 7 days a week without taking a break. Yet almost any creature in nature takes a break now and then to rest. Today I took a break with my daughter to try out a new camera. We walked for miles in Mason Neck State Park and along the shores of Belmont Bay snapping plenty of photos along the way. This is one of the dragonflies we found who agreed with us that a break from being on the go now and then is a good thing.

belmont bay: Say Goodnight Gracie-The Last Harborside Condominum in Belmont Bay is Under Contract - 06/15/11 09:10 PM
Back when the market was smoking HOT selling out a waterfront condominium building in Northern Virginia happened as soon as the project was announced. Fast forward to a building ready to sell at the bottom of the market in early 2008 and you have a very different story. However with a great deal of perseverance, lots of blogging and more weekend open houses that I can count, we are now SOLD OUT! CJ Realty Group had the exclusive listing agreement for selling the 28 units in the building and we are fortunate to have worked with a number of terrific buyer's … (22 comments)
