I'm proud to announce a new partner of the YourLancasterHome.com Real Estate team - Bare Financial Services will be providing financial advisory services to our clients in a new program, which I'll be publishing a press release on this week. In the meantime, Jeremy Walter of Bare Financial posted his June "Monthly Minute" newsletter and I liked the lead story. It's a list (who doesn't like lists?) of ways that you can find to give more in a creative fashion. Here's the list:
1. Give a "donation loan" in which the recipient repays you by donating the "loan" to someone else
2. Pay for someone's gas next to you at the gas station
3. Loan a family car when it's not being used to a family who needs it
4. Offer to drive people needing transportation to doctor appointments, airports, etc.
5. Donate unused air conditioning window units to a family who needs one
6. Purchase a restaurant gift certificate and offer free babysitting to new parents
7. Give out change at local laundromats and talk to the person while waiting for their clothes to wash/dry
8. Create scholarships to pay for events a family couldn't usually afford (church events, summer camps, mission trips)
9. Spend a Saturday morning looking for a moving van and offer to help the family move their belongings
10. In addition to a monetary gift to a local ministry, offer to volunteer regularly on a fixed day of the week or month either in their office or ministry field
The Jeff Geoghan Realty Group is proud to present our newest listing, you have to see this one!

Today the girls and I went downtown to the Lancaster Spring Art Walk. There were several venues with free kids crafts. We had a great time walking around in the beautiful weather and making crafts including a drum, a dreamcatcher, and paper quilt.
We also stopped for lunch at "Rice and Beans", a new restaurant that opened on Queen Street. We got the Cuban sandwich and the stewed chicken with yellow rice, and beans. They were each $5.50 and very tasty.
The Art Walk continues tomorrow so if you have time, go! It's a great time of year to walk around downtown and see all of the trees in bloom.
