Posts Just For You- This Week at ActiveRain June 26 to July 2, 2022

  

Every day there is something to learn here at ActiveRain.  With this series, I try to highlight posts that gave me that lightbulb moment. It could be something techie, something about Real Estate or the other professions that I never knew, about a place, or about a person. Or, it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice!

 

LaurenJune 26: Lauren Williams Wait, Are You Sure???

Bet you can relate to this! I know I can. It's a good thing to remember the next time you're editing your own things or someone else's.

 

CaraJune 27: Cara Marcelle Mancuso   Pick a Positive Path

If you’re going to pick a lane…pick a positive one!!!

 

 

BuzzBuzz Mackintosh 'Ole Glory Coast to Coast'-PROSPECT HALL

I loved reading about Prospect Hall ...it's "haunted history" and a 'famous' alumnus.

 

 

NickNick Vandekar   Tell Me More!

It was refreshing reading Nick's admission to doing what so many of us have been guilty of.

It's always fun to see Timmothy's artwork and what a great post from Bob.

 

Scott Scott Seaton, Jr     Voting and the Flag

What an inspirational post from Scott and love the promise he made. Please read it.

I loved Kat's photos and learned about yacht ensigns.  Love to learn. 

 


Mark DonJune 30:  Mark Don McInnes  'Ole Glory' Coast to Coast  WW2 Museum  New Orleans

Mark's post makes me want to put a trip to New Orleans on my travel list!!! What a great post and inspiring photos.

 

EndreEndre Barath, Jr.      'Ole Glory' I am so happy to be a part of this ActiveRain Challenge

Many here...( Nina Hollander, Broker, Aura Alex)  like Endre are immigrants who remind us how lucky we all are who live in this great country. Look at the picture his mother drew!!!

Hello Kathy - like many AR members, I have taken a break from everyday activity.  I can't imagine a multi-year break and seeing ActiveRain with that new vision.  When I read James' post, the voice of Gomer Pyle from 1960s television came back to me.  Surprise!  Surprise!

Hi Kathy:

It's always a pleasure to stop by your Sunday post to see what things I've missed - it's usually more than I saw.

May not get much reading done this weekend with family around for the holiday.

Have a wonderful July 4th tomorrow.

Jeff
