The Hands On Regional Museum in downtown Johnson City is a perfect place to spend an afternoon with young people.  It is delightfully known as , "the place to discover!"

A Sundial special - 08/07/11 08:42 PM
This morning brought us rain. lots of it!  When life brings you rain, look for a photo shoot!  This is the sundial in my garden.  It is actually an urn.  I know, sounds morbid, but it really isn't.  When my husband passed 5 years ago, we wanted to have a special place to put his ashes.  You wouldn't believe how many cool and interesting urns are out there.  This one spoke to us, and we love it.  I hope you enjoy the photo.

Podcast is a great media - 08/04/11 05:48 AM
I recently sat down with Gregg Pechman with Benchmark Home Loans in Johnson City TN.  He is a social media guru in my opinion and really knows how to work the system.  One of his popular media types is his Podcasts.  Gregg has a small studio set up in his office and brings guests in to participate with him through a Podcast.
