First of all I'll start by saying thanks to everyone who has contributed to this wonderful site over the last year and 2 months. I joined in June of 2007, I simply wanted to see what was involved with this blogging thing that I had read about.

It has now been 14 months since I started my learning. I determined early on in the process that the industry was changing and evolving into something completely different than I was used to. - My blogging worked and soon my cheif source of leads came from the blog.

On November 16 - I suffered a stroke. It was high blood pressure. Took me completely by suprise. In the hospital for 8 days. Anyway - I have a complete recovery . I went from not being able to talk to perfectly normal speech. I had to learn the keyboard over again. Right brain thinking has made me  see things with a different light. My thinking is somewhat clearer now than it used to be.

The new me has teamed up with an investor in my business and  I've just purchased some professional camera gear. I'm going to build a website based on these photos. And I will gain a huge advantage over my competetors as far as listings go. Combined with 25 -30 Professional shots ,I will offer a staging consult at no cost to the customer with payment at closing.

Website will be officially announced in two weeks - Part 2

I feel I owe it all to active Rain.

Here are some sample picts. I hope you all enjoy!
