rankin county: Snap! Take a look at the alligator I captured on film this morning! - 03/27/09 03:02 PM
This morning as I walked out, no as I started to walk out, onto the balcony of my waterfront condo, I hesitated for just a moment as something unusual caught my eye.
In the water below me, I saw what looked like a large alligator with mouth wide open perched just off the rocks. Trembling, my first thought was "How am I going to get past this thing?", followed quickly by "Should I call animal control?"
Then, gathering my wits about me, I did what any serious blogger would do. I grabbed my camera!
Snap, snap! (Pun intended!)
I decided if it WAS a … (13 comments)

rankin county: New Stores are Open at Flowood's Market Street! - 03/03/09 09:06 PM
Attention, JCP shoppers! Penney's is now open at Flowood's Market Street location. A few weeks ago, I wrote about the new shopping center situated at the intersection of Lakeland Drive and Old Fannin Road in Flowood. You can see my original post here. But the good news is J. C. Penney's and Bed, Bath, and Beyond opened their doors on March 1, and business has been brisk. I was able to visit the store this evening and take advantage of the $10 off coupon JCP mailed me last week. The check-out areas were appropriately manned to accommodate the drove of shoppers. … (4 comments)

rankin county: Realtor Open House Gives an Unexpected Surprise - 02/25/09 08:08 AM
Yesterday I held a Realtor Open House in a popular Brandon MS neighborhood (Crossgates). Several Realtors combined efforts to open our listings for two hours to let agents tour the properties, have lunch, and register for door prizes. A preferred lender sponsored my door prize and accompanied me to the open house.
About 30 minutes into the open house, there was a loud, persistent knock at the door. When I answered, a REAL LIVE PROSPECT asked if he could look at the home. I explained it was for Realtors only, and asked if he could schedule an appointment to return later.
Are you kidding me? ha!
I … (15 comments)

rankin county: Let's go Walking, Mississippi! - 10/21/08 01:42 PM
Regardless of where you live, you've likely heard the benefits of walking. Many people walk to lose weight, but there are many advantages to walking; it lowers cholesterol and blood pressure, improves your stamina, and elevates your mood. That's a good reason in and of itself. But for each hour spent walking, you add two hours to your life. Now that is an incentive!
The Let's Go Walkin' Mississippi campaign is sponsored by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi, and First Lady Marsha Barbour, wife of Gov. Haley Barbour, is the spokeswoman. Most Mississippians have seen the public service announcements encouraging walking to get … (0 comments)

The Kroger Company opened their new 64000 square foot supermarket at 1070 Spillway Circle in Brandon's Reservoir area a week ago. The long-awaited opening was extremely well received by hundreds of local residents.
My two visits to the store thus far were positive shopping experiences. Kroger has an impressive selection in their produce department, the organic section is awesome, and their fresh seafood section; yum!
There is a sushi bar, prepared fresh daily, a soup and salad bar, and an olive bar. (I highly recommend the sushi.)
The store opened at the corner of Spillway Road and Northshore Parkway in northwest … (0 comments)
