Feng Shui This - Mercedes Benz - KY Map - Real Estate Lexington KY
When I set out to become a Real Estate Mogul I decided that the 99 Neon with the cracked windshield and 229,000 miles would have to be replaced. Believe it or not, I loved that little car...and I still think of it fondly. But, times change, so I went shopping. I shopped and shopped and drove my friends crazy, borrowing my husband's truck when I had to show a house and driving the Neon when I didn't have to look like I knew what I was doing.
Finally, on the internet, I found what I was looking for...a gold 2003 Mercedes Benz hatchback at a very affordable price, in Tennessee of all places. It's the perfect car for me. Gold for the Feng Shui of my house, great gas mileage, fold down back seats, good for carrying signs...and turbo charged so when I get "in a tight spot" I can kick it and it will zip me into or out of traffic as fast as I need it to. I love this little car. But, today the hatchback was the coolest thing.
Today that hatchback came in handy.
You can put a lot of stuff in a little car.
Sometimes you might even surprise yourself.
If your cargo is a little large, you might need a bungee cord to hold the hatchback down.
That's easy enough...just hook it to the license plate and the bottom latch.
Now, pop the hatchback and take a look what I put in the back today.
Just what I always wanted for my office! It's an honest to goodness 6'5" x 3'1" map of Kentucky. It looks like it was hanging at one time in a KY Visitor's Center. Next stop though...my home office. First it will need a little cleaning and I'll have to find a few studs to hang it on. But, it's going to be a very useful tool.
I can trace the larger creeks and rivers, locate instantly the boundries of any of the 120 counties in Kentucky. This map gives boundaries of the KY State Parks, National Parks and many KY Historical sites. And, there will be no question where the river flows! This map puts Lexington KY in perspective. Now I know where I am in relation to everywhere else in the state. When there are that many counties, it's easy to get confused about towns, rivers, and other boundaries. This will make things so much easier!
Get confused sometimes? Get a big honkin' map and find the YOU ARE HERE arrow. I'll be putting one on my map as soon as I can get it cleaned and on the wall.
Sometimes an old fashioned map is the best way for me to get my bearings. There's nothing like seeing the whole state of KY stretched out like this. And, I love the fact that it fit in my little Mercedes Benz Hatchback. How cool is that? Way cool.
