My day, My say! Driving around this afternoon doing some real estate duties....I spied this huge water tower in Cibolo. A rapidly growing community NE of San Antonio. One of the things I love about doing errands is the unexpected. Less than a mile away, on the same side of the street, is this: Im...

I've been gone for a while - and well, I've only been writing when I have to. Like checks and stuff like that. Since I wrote my last post, My husband and I went to San Francisco for an Aunt's 90th birthday celebration, cruised all over Alaska and ended up in Seattle. While on this really great 36...

Made it by the the lowater yesterday. Looks like the TXDot or whomever is getting busy. There are now 3 stantions up and the Rockin'R side of the river approach seems to be shaping up. Since it was raining yesterday, there was absolutely no one down there - a rarity. No matter the weather, there ...

Here's another blast from the past. While wondering around in Guadalupe county, I found an abandoned building, I spied this inside a broken window. Does anyone remember this type of child "Safety Seat"? It is a real improvement from the one I was plunked down in, but mine did have a canvas seat a...

I didn't make it down to the lowater bridge this weekend...but I did need to kill some time in the Schertz/Cibolo area today. Found some interesting "artifacts" while I was driving around. The Starlight Theatre is in Schertz on Highway 78. This community was voted one of the top 40 places to live...

The old low-water bridge on Gruene road leading from New Braunfels to Gruene has been torn down and is slowly being rebuilt. If you understand that everyone around here loved the bridge, but realized that it was dangerous, deadly and the time had come for it be replaced. We loved it on lazy hot s...

The oldest rule of real estate is LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. This property proves the rule. Almost an acre of prime waterfront land that has been in the same family since beautiful Lake McQueeney was built. It is situated higher than the dam and as a result, it has never flooded. There is an i...

The weather outside is delightful, a fire would be so frightful....Yep, it's winter in Texas again. The temperature was almost 80 today. The sky, while not quite a bluebird day, was at least partly cloudy. My husband and I are sitting here with the big sliding back door wide open at almost 8 PM, ...

To everyone who has been following Lauren's saga; believe it or not, she had dinner at my house Christmas Day! She came home two days earlier and spent Christmas Eve in the emergency room, but she was there! Living, breathing, joking and playing she ate some of the Roast Beef, Yorkshire Pudding, ...

I have to go back to work today.. one of the nice things about being in real estate is that when an emergency arises, you have some time to deal with it. Those of you who have been following Lauren's story will be please to know that she is slowly but surely still fighting her way out of the coma...
