I'm working with a condo buyer, who is very specific as to where he would like to live (good), unsure about how much he REALLY wants to spend (not good), but still motivated.I previewed two listings today, in the Jacksonville Beach market, and found both of them to be terrific deals! One is a 2

I'm taking a the morning off, inspired by another poster today (thanks for the idea, Lisa Spalding!) and it just occured to me that I can get caught up with "being involved" and "doing things".For example, an informal group meets on Wednesday mornings for breakfast and to chat. Sometimes it's pos

I had a great Sunday here in NE FL: my guy and I hopped on the Harley, and went to Fernandina Beach for a few hours. We parked by the Palace Saloon, shopped a little bit, and then headed over to The Surf for a late lunch. The Surf is an oceanview outdoor restaurant/bar with something like 27 tele
