Good morning, Ginny. Nice to see that some folks can post this morning. The write server is down. This could be the reason for not too many posts. Anyway, so much for my frustration with the Rain this morning. I hope that your new listing does well...

Ginny, those old historic homes hold a special place in my heart.  One of my first listings was on the Registry, and what scrutiny the buyer went through to acquire it, all for good reason of course.
