Someone is sitting in the shade today
because someone planted a tree

Today is a reminder that Daylight Saving time ends November 5th. Remember, clocks move back 1 hour. While in Eureka Springs, I was reminded about good use of time. It was here on this trail I started out with one primary objective - hike to the Crescent Hotel to get a good breakfast. But when the light stream cut through the trees, I suddenly felt different. In other words, my thoughts, the sights, and the smells that occurred changed my perception. For this reason, I simply added a heart flare using Ribbet on my photograph to give you a sense of what I was experiencing. Nothing else was changed, except adding my name. My name...
While admiring the trees in the forest, I thought a lot about all the different people and animals that contributed to the growth of a forest. I needed to see this because after leaving the devastation caused by forest fires in Glacier National Park in late September, I began to appreciate what was right in front of me and not what was gone.

Even though, we may feel like we are putting out fires, the reality is, we are builders of a community. When passion burns, there is commitment from the support of the Real Estate community. Passion ignites the fuel to get results. Get results...
Time changes. Back and forth time changes. People commute daily. The daily commute is a journey. If it wasn't for the people that come into my life, the places I go, the things I do, or the decisions I make, I wouldn't be who I am today. Who am I today...
