  I did not think that we were going to have a White Christmas In Middletown, Connecticut this year but we did.  As you can see from the picture above there was not much snow, but it was enough to stick to the trees, grass, and my deck. The the type of snow fall that we got Christmas Morning is the kind I like, because it was enough to make things white, but not enough to need to be shoveled.  However, we are getting more snow right now, but I am ready it, and for whatever Old Man Winter throws at me this year with my new snow blower, even for the amount of snow that we got two years ago. Christmas is always a special day in my house, but somehow it seems to be just a little more special when it is a white one, and it was a White Christmas In Middletown, Connecticut . *****************...

We have a street here in Middletown, Connecticut, Sandhill Road, that the residents on the street go all out in decorating their homes in lights.  This year is no exception, making Sandhill Road, the best example of Christmas Lights In Middletown, Connceticut For 2012.  The residents on the street also put out a box for those who are stopping by to see their homes all lit up to donate food for those in need during this time of the year. I really admire the residents of Sandhill Road for effort that they putting into decorating their homes, which brings pleasure to those that drive by to enjoy their work and creativity.  But at the same time not losing sight of the spirit of this time of the year by using this opportunity to provide for the needing in Middletown.

The Middlesex County Real Estate Council 2012 Holiday Luncheon, will be on December 6th this year, at the Elks Lodge in Middletown, CT.  The Middlesex County Real Estate Council Holiday Luncheon is sponsored by McCue Mortgage every year, and it has always been an excellent event. The guest speaker and entertainer at the Middlesex County Real Estate Council 2012 Holiday Luncheon, will be David Brogan, Master Mixologist.  I have not seen a Mixologist before, in fact I did not know what a Mixologist was, until I heard that David was going to be the guest speaker and entertainer.  For those of you who live a secluded life, like I apparently do, a Mixologist is a person who specializes in mixed drinks.  I don't think that i need to say it, but this will obviously be very popular with the Re...

The Snow Is Starting Early This Year.  Last year the same thing happened, and then hardly any snow for the rest of the Winter, but somehow I have a feeling that it will be a different result this year. The snow started around 11:00 a.m. yesterday, and stopped, at least I thought it had stopped around 10:00 last night.  I figured that I would go out, and shovel it up so that I did not have to do it this morning.  Well mother nature is a prankster, so when I got up this morning my driveway and cars were covered with snow all over again.  That was not the way I had planned on starting out my day. However, we did lucked out with this storm here in Middletown, Connecticut, we only got about 3".  Out of all the types of snow we get, the one we got is the toughest to shovel.  The snow mixed wi...

  I have never been to a Train Show, but this one is less than a half mile form my house so I am going to make an effort to attend the Train Show At Xavier High School In Middletown Connecticut. A number of my friends have been into model trains for a long time, and I have gotten to see a few of their set ups.  After seeing the different model trains that each of them have, and the way that they have set them up, it is easy to see why they are hooked on them. One of my friends has a model train that circles his back yard through a bunch of tunnels and over bridges.  Another friend has one that he has built a track that runs up close to the ceiling and circles the office. It is the type of hobby that can really capture the imagination of people of all ages. I hope I will be able to atte...

  OK so may be It isn't a real Canadian Invasion, but a few days before Hurricane Sandy hit it felt that way with all of the Canadian Geese that  descended on us here in Middletown Connecticut.  Just in the short time that I was standing there, the Canadian Geese were flying in and out, so much so that it felt like a Canadian Invasion. The Canadians are our friends, so their flying long neck honking critters are welcomed here in Middletown Connecticut any time, especially if it is to take a little rest before a major storm.   *************************************************************************************  Info about the author: George Souto is a Loan Officer who can assist you with all your FHA, CHFA, and Conventional mortgage needs in Connecticut.
