As I was getting ready to write this blog I realized I had no interest at all in what I was goint to blog about, after all, it's Monday. I should be blogging about a new listing and the low ball offer we received after just one day on the market.

But... I would rather talk about the great time I had this last Sunday. You see, I like to ride motorcycles, I like to ride them as often as possible. In fact the more time on a bike the better.

I swear I'll take the camera next time because you just won't believe how absolultely beautiful the California coast was.  Myself and two friends rode from the east bay over the San Rafael bridge. We took Lucas Valley road through the country to Highway 1. Rode north to Tomales bay and stopped at Tony's on the water for BBQ oysters. Man where they good! Stopped for gas and met two other bikers from South Carolina. They were on a road trip across country to S.F. then north up Hwy 1. They were eventually going to end up in Sturgess before heading back home. Very nice people come from S.C.

The weather was perfect, fog was just on the coast enough to need a jacket. The ocean is fantastic and Hwy 1 winds it's way up the coast line. We went north to Stewarts Point. There is a road heading east from Stewarts Point that looks a little sketchy, always claimed I would take that route someday. Sunday was the day. What a great 47 mile ride through the wilderness to Healdsburg. We didn't get home until after 7pm.

BTW - We did counter the offer, was countered back and generated a counter to that counter. We'll see what happens in the next day. 

Just a sidenote; one of the other bikers riding with us was the home owner for the listing.

It's was a wonderful life until Monday roled around.

I like to have my camera with me - I kick myself when I need it and it's not around...

That day off to recharge is sometimes worth a week's holiday...with or without camera.

Konnie,

Take a look at a blog I wrote back in April. In that blog I suggested four topics you can blog about on a regular basis.

Gensounds like a great summer day, we all need to take off and recharge, do something that gets our head out of the humdrum...  Hope that offer had a good finalization for you.  I am going to go to your suggested blog above and check it out and see if I can adapt to being a stager... I am just not consistent with this thing, it is hard to stay on it, think of things to say... I go through prolific periods and then I just get lazy I think... Do you have a cure for that?  ;-)

Joanne,

I don't always blog as often as I should. My remedy was to enter blogging into my schedule like any other recurring task. If you use Outlook or a PDA to manage your schedule add blogging and make it a repeating schedule so every week it pops up to remind you that an important task needs attention.

Repeat anything often enough and it will become a habit. Once it becomes a habit just be careful it doesn't become an addiction that eats the better part of your day. Everything in moderation.
