As Paul Harvey used to say, "and now, the rest of the story..."
Recently, there was a message from ActiveRain encouraging members to post a new photo and offering 1,000 points to do so. And so I went through the photo album and found the picture above and cropped the 'mugshot' of myself and uploaded the photo.
Today, I'm posting the uncropped photo and revealing "the rest of the storey..."
About a year ago, I applied for and was hired as the Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity, Lake County. This was a short term job which allowed me to continue my Real Estate business while doing something for the community. As both a General Contractor and a Realtor I jumped at the opportunity!
Of all the things I did in this job...the best was handing the keys over to a family of their new home. A Habitat home buyer is by definition someone who could not otherwise buy a home. These are hardworking people who live in sub-standard housing and for whom the Dream of home ownership seems impossible.
