Sounds like a great time had by all, glad to see you were able to finally meet Rocky (oh Jeff too, lol)...I know you have been totally "crashing" on her websites & work she does, I can hear it your voice!  I would love to hear about the other part about wedding crashing...oh wait...I have....still can't believe it!  Are you home yet from Hawaii? You must be on vacation to be posting at this hour! I have checked out one of Rocky's sites and will check out the others. As for RES, I would love to participate for that, but in due time. I love Jeff's product. Have a good one.

Desiree, Thanks for reminding about the Real Estate Show. I plan on this week signing up.

Candace - Home yet... nahhh I go straight from Hawaii to Inman... so I leave here on the 7th get in on the 8th and straight to NYC...   God I feel like a total jet setter :)

Great post Desiree,

     Giving back is really important in our lives. Rocky... keep up the good work.

Excellent post Dez... Those with the ability have a moral obligation to extend a helping hand to those that don't... at least in my opinion. 

Hi Desiree,
Rocky sounds like an awesome lady with a big heart.  I will check out her website to get more information.  I agree with Jesse & Kathy, it's our moral obligation share what we've been given.

Desiree, you are certainly getting around these days, aren't you.  Hope you're not too exhausted by the time you get to NYC next week -- I've heard there are some big plans in the works.

Desiree.....  it does sound like a great time. How come that pose of yours in the picture looks the same when I first met you and Al in  Philly?  lol    Looking forward to seeing you in NYC in January.  When are you heading up?  I am going up Tuesday afternoon for some of the get togethers....

Overall, I will agree, Rocky sounds like an awesome person and in regards to what she gives of herself. I am looking forward to meeting Jeff at Bloggers Connect also. 

May you and your family have a safe & happy New Year !!!

Sounds like a great time and you finally got to meet Rocky! 

Desiree-What a fun and inspirational post.  All packed with goodness.  Have a great time tonight!

Frank - Its a great marketing tool I highly recommend it.   Best wishes for a happy New Year!

Dez, I had read Rocky's blog from the link from Sarah's because I liked the name of the organization, but I did not get the connection.  How fabulous that you guys got to meet.  I'm going to have to dig into Rocky's work a bit more because it sounds like the work that is close to my heart.  Thanks for putting the spotlight on good work.

Sal - Thanks for the pop by and the support.  Rocky's work is so important.   Now I want to know what are you doing up at 2-3 am bloggin.  I have an excuse I am still on the west coast.   Get to bed!!!

Jesse & Kathy - We do have a moral obligation i agree..   but some of us chose to ignore it in the hopes that "it" just goes away.   I am not one of those people.   Have a wonderful New Year!!

Desiree~ thanks for reminding us about Rocky's work, I read about her Africa project months ago so I need to check back in.

BTW~ I dare you to shave your head, you NJ top producer you!!  See you at Inman and have a great Hawaii trip.

Cynthia - Thanks for the support.   I hope you find Rocky's site as inspiring as I did (do).  Have a wonderful New Year!!

Brian - I am sure i'll be exhausted but I always rally to a challenge....  Can't' wait to learn all there is to learn at Inman... and of course met you all!  Have a wonderful New Years!!!  See you soon

Dez-- Wow--I didn't realize you were heading straight to Inman from Hawaii... Can I just be your traveling Assistant...I sure could endure that jet-setter schedule... where do I fill out the application?  Enjoy!! Be safe!! Carry on!!

I enjoyed this as Real Estate Shows has been a great asset to us.

Jeff - Not sure if I'll be there the night before the classes start of the morning of the start of the conference.  Depends on when and if my flights out from the west coast are on time.

See ya there!!

Renee - I did I did.....   but I have to tell you... there was no poles involved at this juncture :(   See ya in Feb./March.

Very interesting Des. I will check out Rocky's site! So, as a show of solidarity, are you going to shave your head? Inquiring minds and all.....   :::::eyeroll:::::

Julie - Thanks a good time was had by all!!

Elaine - Rocky's work is amazing and inspiring.  I encourage you to get involved if you can.   Thanks for stopping by.  Hope you had a good New Year.

Desiree...  sounds good... no matter, we'll catch up. I am staying later after the fact also, but coming back later that night. You have my cell....
