miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: I Challenge You!!!!!!!!!!!!! - 04/18/08 02:42 PM
Everyone, I would encourage you all to take a little time this weekend to show kindness to a stranger, even if it takes you out of your way.
It is very satisfying to do something for someone else, without any expectation of compensation, doing it "just because."
Lots of people make fun of … (29 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Saturday's For Real Estate....Right? - 03/29/08 09:42 AM
This is the first Saturday in a LONG time that I don't have something real estate realted going on. Last Saturday I was holding an Open House (gorgeous neo-French colonial style home on 3 acres...vividly and tastefully decorated...) and then I went to Indian Rocks to look at a home for … (20 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Why WAS Easter So Early This Year? - 03/23/08 09:06 PM
One thing I try to avoid is mimicking what other bloggers write about. But I was reading Maureen McCabe's blog today and she mentioned a blog by Ann Arbor real estate agent Karen Moorehead that explains why Easter was so early this year.
My kids asked me about this today...and interestingly enough, … (7 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: My Moldy Past - 03/20/08 09:18 PM
In a previous blog, I highlighted some interesting facts about mold. Mold seems to be on the top of the list of the most terrifying things to find in a home these days. There is a LOT of talk about toxic mold, black mold, and all the health issues surrounding mold.
Please … (18 comments)

I've not been in the rain for many weeks.
I'm sorry to have not been in touch with all of my friends - I'm going to be making the rounds over the next few days, visiting your blogs and saying "Hi! I haven't forgotten you!"
I've been very busy in my physical world … (11 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Tanglwood Ski Area Closed This Year - What Happens Next? - 12/30/07 05:59 PM
Tanglwood in the Poconos Closed - What Happens Next?
The Tanglwood Ski Area has had financial issues, evidently, for some time. The phones have been disconnected, emails are unanswered.
What surprised me is that the official website has been taken over by a domain squatter. GoDaddy charges less than $10 a … (4 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Simpleton Real Estate: The Case of the Hotheaded Broker. D'OH! - 12/28/07 10:11 PM
Yesterday, I was doing something that had nothing to do with real estate - so I thought. For some inexplicable reason, I turned on The People's Court. My parents and I used to love it with Judge Wapner; Judge Marilyn actually annoys me, and I miss Rusty the Bailiff. And why … (6 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Sneaky Staging Tactics? Hogwash! - 12/22/07 04:57 PM
One of the biggest trends in real estate today is home staging. I have seen staged homes while showing properties in my market (Lake Wallenpaupack, the Poconos, Pike County, and Wayne County in northeast PA.) Staging can certainly be an excellent tool to help buyers envision themselves at home in a … (19 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Cookie Monster Meets Real Estate? - 11/04/07 06:50 PM
Cookie cutter homes. They are everywhere! So many homes are identical - or nearly identical - to dozens of others in the area. If they were edible, Cookie Monster would have a ball.
Currently, in the Pike and Wayne County PA MLS, there are about 2000 homes on the market. How … (13 comments)

miscellaneous thoughts from a lake wallenpaupack real estate agent: Gambling: Not Your Father's Poconos - 10/08/07 04:42 PM
It hurts my heart to think that my beloved Poconos are going become a mini Atlantic City with a few thousand slot machines...and heaven knows what else will slither in with them. Honestly, is that really what the Poconos is all about? What happened to cabins on a lake, getting "lost" … (8 comments)

For as long as I can remember, I have loved to take pictures. I remember being so persistent with my mom in the Salvation Army one time, when I was about 8 or 9 - there was an old 35mm camera on the shelf for $2. I wanted it SO badly, … (12 comments)
