Movies- Lake Oconee. Good Morning Movie Watchers! It’s a little after 9 a.m. on Thursday morning and there’s just over 14 hours left to cash in on this great Groupon deal, $2 for 5 $1 Vouchers Toward Any Movie Rental at any Blockbuster kiosk. Drew and I frequent the Blockbuster kiosk at Publix here on Lake Oconee a lot so we definitely make sure to snatch this one up when it comes around.

Catchy Ways to Advertise Your Business-Lake Oconee, Georgia. This morning the ad of a restauarnt/coffee shop caught my eye as the local weather was being presented while watching The Today Show. As the cold months seem to be setting in for Georgia, Community Grounds of Atlanta has found a unique way of their own to try and "brew up" business. They call it Temperature Pricing and every morning this week they are selling cups of coffee for the lowest temp of the morning. The picture to the right is courtesy of their Facebook page and everyday they announce the number. It … (14 comments)

coldwell banker lake oconee: Sooooooooooooo Frustrating..... - 08/31/11 02:21 AM
Sooooooooooooo Frustrating.....
We had such a great weekend here on Lake Oconee. We spent late Saturday afternoon at the Ritz Carlton watching a wake boarding competition. Sunday afternoon was gorgeous so we found ourselves back out on the water with a great group of friends. Then Monday night we started off the week on a high note with a birthday dinner at Silver Moon. I thought for sure I would be watching the back of my eyelids by 10 p.m. last night. Thus was not even near the case. 4:30 in the morning and I was still watching the clock. My … (8 comments)

coldwell banker lake oconee: DEpersonalizing Is Clutch In Your Very PERSONAL Decision - 08/20/11 03:56 AM
DEpersonalizing Is Clutch In Your Very PERSONAL Decision. I recently visited the home of a friend in North Carolina who is trying to sell her home. Normally when you walk into her house you're wrapped in the comfort of photos of friends and family, trinkets from her travels, and just a general feel for who she is and where she's been. It is, after all, her home. Thus, after her Agent got ahold of it, is no longer the case. The wall decorations are minimal. The countertops are clear. Family and friends...what family and friends? I talked to my friend about … (7 comments)

coldwell banker lake oconee: Richards Wine Bar-Lake Oconee, Georgia - 08/01/11 03:58 AM
I joined a group of girlfriends recently at the newest addition to the food and beverage world on Lake Oconee, Richards Wine Bar. It's the perfect little spot for catching up, a private party, or even a date night with your significant other. Owner Richard Matthews expanded on his already successful wine store, Classic Wines, which he established in 2006, by opening the bar in the same location as his store in the Village Commerce Center.
We wasted no time on our visit sampling pretty much everything on the menu. My favs were the Southern Pimento Cheese with Crisped Prosciutto, Hand … (4 comments)

coldwell banker lake oconee: To Each His Own or Is There A Solid Answer? - 07/27/11 02:35 AM
To Each His Own or Is There A Solid Answer? A recent blog post by Barbara Todaro titled "Hide And Seek Is Not A Game To Play With Past Clients" caused questions to arise in my mind and I thought, "What better place to pose the question than AR?" In her post she talked about time lapses between Agent/Client contact and how long will it take for them to forget you or move on? Still semi fresh to the game, I stay in close contact with any and all people that I even broach the subject of real estate with because … (4 comments)

Inside the Top 20 for Active Rain Newbies! I absolutely have to take the opportunity to reblog a post I found yesterday by fellow AR member Richard Yates of Orange County, California.
In this particular post Richard had shared with us The Leading Newbies of 2011 as of 7/15/2011 here on Active Rain. Naturally, having joined this year, I clicked to see who was at the top of the list. I recognized many of the 18 faces that were there as we all tend to encourage and keep in touch with the fellow Newbies (as we're called) in the AR family. … (7 comments)

coldwell banker lake oconee: Paying It Forward- Volunteering for Extreme Home Makeover - 07/10/11 04:11 AM
Paying It Forward- Volunteering for Extreme Home Makeover. The streets where I live have been buzzing for a little over a month now as ABC's reality show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is coming to our area. We did not know exactly what family was going to be helped but this morning, as a matter of fact, the show suprised the deserving family and work is probably in full force by now. I think what the show does for families around our country is inspiring so last week when I received an email saying that they needed volunteers to help with the … (6 comments)

Photos From Great Day On The Water-Lake Oconee, Georgia. Had such a great time getting out on the water and enjoying a bit of this holiday weekend. Bryan and I have been friends literally our entire lives. Before we could crawl we were "hanging out" together. It was so fun to have him, his wife Danah, and their two beautiful girls, Atalie & Josey come and spend the night with us at our house on Lake Oconee for the holiday. Below are just a few shots of a great day out on the lake!

Coldwell Banker Lake Oconee
Who Knew Continuing Ed Could Be So Fun? No matter where you live in this great country, if you are an active Realtor then at some point you have to take continuing education courses. Our local Board of Realtors offered two courses today and I figured, why not? The last thing I need to do is look up in November, way short on my hours, and be in a huge rush to get them completed. And no matter who you are you also probably do not get as excited about going to continuing education classes as you … (8 comments)

coldwell banker lake oconee: 4th of July- Lake Oconee - 06/28/11 01:43 AM
After about a week of some much, much needed rain I am excited to see that the weather plans to clear up just in time for one of the biggest times here on Lake Oconee, July 4th weekend! Fireworks, concerts, lake activity, festivals, and family grill outs might be a little tough in the rain but according to Weather.com we've got little to worry about for this coming weekend! I know here on AR we love the "rain" but for big holiday weekends we need it to stay away : )
