Five excellent tips for generating leads from Facebook ads. Most important: you need to actually use them consistently. 'Once & Done' does NOT WORK.
Facebook Followers: 5 Things That Haven't Changed 5 Simple Ways to Build Your Facebook Followers There's a lot of talk (and concern) about the new Facebook changes and how they will affect your business. Many of us have spent years successfully attracting and connecting with Facebook followers. One thing I know for sure is that change is inevitable. A lot of times it's confusing and frustrating. Something else I know is that 5 things have never changed.

erie pa: Birds, Birds, Birds
- 05/14/17 04:39 PM
Living at the edge of the woods, well just a few acres of woods, we see many species of birds year-round, especially during the spring migration.
Enjoy a few of the migrating birds that visit our backyard: Baltimore Oriole, Rose-breasted Grosbeak and Ruby Throated Humminbird and Red-headed Woodpecker.
Here are some birds that comes on a regular basis.
Turkeys and more turkeys and soon the babies will arrive.
Twice a day I fill several feeders in our backyard year-round. The hummingbird feeders and oranges & cherries are only filled spring & summer.
Here is the most exciting photo . . . baby robin, just … (9 comments)

erie pa: I Had NO CHOICE . . . Fake . . .
- 04/04/17 06:41 AM
Okay, Okay . . . Yes, but I Had NO CHOICEOkay, Okay . . . Yes, but I Had NO CHOICE. Really, really. I had NO CHOICE.
I enjoy flowers and Mother Nature wasn't cooperating in Erie PA so I created my own spring reality show.
Mother Nature didn't provide any other alternative so I resorted to planting silk flowers in front of the wagon wheel. Ingenuity and resourcefulness to the rescue.
It's not much different than FAKE NEWS you might say. Okay, Okay . . . Yes, but I Had NO CHOICE. Really, really. I had NO CHOICE.

erie pa: It's almost Halloween so Let's Visit the Vampire Crypt
- 10/29/16 08:23 AM
Erie Cemetary, Erie, PA
I can vouch that the Vampire Cyrpt does exist. For years I have heard the stories about the Vampire Crypt in the Erie Cemetary and finally I had the opportunity to tour the Erie Cemetary with the Erie Cemetary Lady and see the Vampire Crypt for myself.
The Erie Cemetary incorporated in 1849 has many lavish mausoleums but the Vampire Crypt stands out because it is fairly sparse. The name of the crypt is missing but over the door is an ornate symbol that many claim is a 'V' hence the name 'Vampire Crypt'.
Per Caroline's presentation a young high … (6 comments)

- 09/03/16 12:38 AM
Don't delay! Now is the time to prepare for the infamous Lake-Effect snow storms that blow across the Great Lakes. Most of us who live around the Great Lakes escaped the wrath of Hurricane Hermine but we know what is coming in a few months.
Sunrise over my back yard
Both the Farmers Almanac and the Old Farmers Almanac, which my dear Mother bought every year, have predicted a colder than normal winter for the northeast. Yes, it is time to prepare for lake-effect snow storms.

Yes, it is Thursday all day which means that it's also time for a tbt photo, right?
I suppose I could really throw the clock back a few years but I thought I would just post an early spring photo to cool things off. Yes, it has been rather hot even by Erie, PA weather standards.
Froggy is hanging out in the garage rather than outside this summer.

- 03/08/16 06:12 AM
Alzheimer's and dementia affect so many families. Former president Reagan and his wife, Nancy, introduced America to this disease that robs the individual of their memory and their family.
Not easy to accept, but don't forget to lend a hand, hug a loved one. Everyone needs your support.

erie pa: No Excuses, It's Time to Relax
- 02/26/16 10:30 AM
Forget the excuses. It's time to relax. Oh, yes, but . . . Yes, but I am busy. Yes, but I have so many undone things on my to-do list that I can't take time off.
If you are in real estate I bet you have said that many times over. It seems that there is never enough time for all that needs to be done.
But let me tempt you with reality. A little time off to relax goes a long way to rejuvenate both your body & your inner spirit.
I learned this early in my career. I had been working 24/7And … (27 comments)

It might be snowy and a bit on the cold side but let's head for the woods.
Winter is not for weaklings or ____.
You can fill in the blanks. I have always lived in western PA and LOVE all four seasons, even winter. As kids we played for hours making snowmen, snow angels and building forts. Today my favorite winter activity is cross country skiing.
Oh yes, we have friends who have joined the snowbirds who head south like my friend, Snowy.
Okay maybe a winter's nap in front of the fireplace will be nice, too.

Way to Go, Hunter!
Yesterday was the first indoor football game at Family First Sports Park with many proud parents and grandparents in attendance. Of course I had to snap a few photos before, during and after the game.
Congratulations to Hunter's team on winning.
No, Hunter didn't make a touchdown, but look at the smile on his face during game review. The coach had just congratulated Hunter on being where he was supposed to be and doing just what his position required and the team cheered for him. (Don't ask me for details. My son-in-law did … (4 comments)
