harrisburg nc: A Hard Truth To Grasp - 02/12/08 07:31 PM
It's worse than the age old 'chicken or the egg' argument...since it affects how people perceive their biggest financial investment-their homes.
Which is correct-market value or tax value?
Doesn't sound like a difficult question when I write it down, but it's an ongoing discussion with homeowners in Charlotte NC (and especially in … (5 comments)

harrisburg nc: I Changed My Mind - 09/17/07 01:49 PM
And am no longer a candidate for Harrisburg NC Town Council.
The main reason that I've decided to withdraw my candidacy is that I've been selected to sing in a very small choral group-and it's an opportunity that I can't pass up at this time. After all, I'm getting older and I … (14 comments)

Hot off the presses in Harrisburg NC, where we've been struggling with the issues that surround smart growth!
Our town turned down a zoning request from Lowe's Home Improvement in the fall, and the town was promptly sued by Lowe's. Lovely, right?

It's hot here in Charlotte NC, hotter than usual (over 100 degrees today and HUMID!). And it's dry-we haven't had nearly enough rain lately.

harrisburg nc: It's Not Just About The Price. - 07/06/07 04:54 PM
I pulled into my driveway this afternoon, and was immediately prospected by a landscaper who was going door-to-door soliciting new business.
I have a gorgeous yard, not quite THIS gorgeous but it's easily one of the best yards in Heatherstone and quite possibly in all of Harrisburg NC.
So I found it … (61 comments)

I know I'm a softie, very nostalgic and sentimental, and I've often been referred to as an 'old soul.'
