The snow came down last night, and kept coming through the day.  Schools are closed, banks are closed, what to do?  Well after squeezing a full work day into a half day, we bundled up and headed to Warriors Path Golf Courseto hit the sleding hills!  I was once again reminded of the power of proper layering.  Even though the temperature outdoors was 24/feeling like 7 (that's what the weather channel was saying) we were to the point of sweating.  The ride down, a blast, fun, exhilarating.  The walk back up...OMG.....  
I love living in such a beautiful area with … (8 comments)

sellabrate real estate team johnson city tennessee: Condo Living, or not - 12/08/10 01:57 PM
Condominiums can be such a wonderful lifestyle for many.   The amenities vary from site to site and Home Owner Association (HOA) fees usually have a lot to do with what you are getting for your money.  Are you ready for a condo? There are many questions you have to ask yourself. 
Do I want a garden?  Can I have one in this development?
Can I afford an HOA every month?  What if it goes up?
Do I have animals?  A large dog?  Where will he run?
On the positive side:
I don't have to mow!  I don't have to shovel snow!

I recently came across a friend of mine who had a major issue with her sewer pipes.  She lives up in Michigan and was explaining to me about this Orangeburg issue she was having.  I had never heard of it before and initially thought it may be a regional thing.  Well after more research I realize that this "Orangeburg" is a real thing and a real issue nationwide.
 This picture is of an Orangeburg pipe, also known as, bituminized fiber pipe.  It is made from layers of wood pulp and pitch pressed together.  Basicly, tar coated compressed cardboard!  The name comes … (3 comments)

Well Johnson County , Washington County and Carter County Tennessee closed there schools due to snow.  They are located in the Mountains and surrounded by lakes and creeks.  Roads were icy and it's understandable that schools were closed!  Now Johnson City schools were on a 2 hour delay, along with Sullivan County schools.  I have a hard time figuring out why this school system, which is located in Washington County and Sullivan County schools don't follow the same snow schedule.  We are all in the same area.
