golden isles: 4th Quarter Residential Housing Report in the Golden Isles of Georgia (St. Simons Island/ Glynn County) - 01/04/08 07:19 AM
Greetings and Happy New Years from what today one could call the deep freeze.  You see it is currently 24 degrees and windy but it is winter and considering this will last for only another day...well one need not complain too much since this is only the 4th or 5th cold event we've had in the past 12 months.  Speaking of which let me get to the 4th quarter report.  Yep the ole end of year.  Because I don't wish to bore everyone to death with endless statistics for the entire year I'll restrict this commentary to the last quarter sales … (0 comments)

golden isles: The Market In The Golden Isles Today Nov 2007 - 11/06/07 08:23 AM
Greetings from the Golden Isles!  I know that this economic update for this area is earlier than you expected but with so much negativism in the National Media over the past week I thought that I would look at what has happen year to date and over the past quarter in the Golden Isles  and report to you.  Although I am no economic guru nor do I have the ability to see into some magic crystal ball that allows me to make economic predictions.... Hey... some days I have trouble seeing beyond my nose.  But seriously I believe that information is … (1 comments)

golden isles: Blythe Island Georgia a forgotten destination in the Golden Isles! - 03/22/07 02:39 AM
It occurred to me this morning in reading a blog by Eric Bouler entitled Localism Photos, should photos be by local area Members only? That in doing an overview of "The Golden Isles" entitled So What are the Golden Isles I'd neglected to include many of the smaller areas incorporated and not that add to the charm and beauty of the area.  Therefore from time to time I'll add another neighborhood to localism within the context of the Golden Isles.
The First of these will be Blythe Island.  Yes a true residential island that is completely surrounded by several rivers, deepwater and … (0 comments)

golden isles: The Wrong Kind Of Advertising or Not? - 03/16/07 02:54 AM
The entire country has recently been fascinated about the story of a 6 year old child who simply disappeared from a lower income neighborhood in Glynn County Georgia.  Yesterday the body of the child was found due to the diligent work of the Glynn County Police Department, The Department of Natural Resources, Glynn County Fire Services and other community organizations and individuals who came together for the sole purpose of finding this child. 
 The perpetrator (s) have been arrested and the community awaits what will surely be a long and torturous pretrial and criminal prosecution.  During the week that the nation watched … (1 comments)

golden isles: A snaphot of Spring in The Golden Isles - 03/12/07 02:00 AM
Springtime in the Golden Isles means moderate temperatures ranging from the night time 50's to the upper 70's daytime.  This range is accompanied by clear day time skies with the occasional late afternoon/evening thunder boomer and late afternoon on shore breezes.
The landscape takes on an ever growing and glowing green tint with blossoms from thousands of azaleas, wild plum trees and Dogwoods breaking through the winter grays to provide springtime color from the beaches throughout the mainland and marshland areas. 
Of coarse there are a few negatives such as the influx of visitors from colder environs as well as the bursting … (0 comments)

golden isles: GEORGIA FLORIDA WEEKEND IN THE GOLDEN ISLES - 10/27/06 02:11 AM
For those of you who are not in the SEC (South Eastern Conference) the Georgia – Florida game probably holds little significance.  However, being here on St. Simons Island, 70 miles from the annual “World’s Largest Cocktail Party” is a true adventure.  An adventure which begins roughly three days before the game, because that is roughly the time frame in which the partying masses converge on the area to partake in booze, food, golf, swapping war stories and extolling the praises for the combatant schools. 
 Somewhere in this hodgepodge real estate comes into play.  Usually it is the couple who has been coming here for … (0 comments)
