All those who know me 'know' how close I love those Ruby Red Slippers that Dorothy wore in the Wizard of Oz that rest so sweetly for all to admire in the Smithsonian Museum. The Museum wants them to last the test of time so has started a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for their preservation and housing. For all of us who have admired them and lusted after them as little girls now have a chance to make that difference for all those in the next century … (21 comments)
Oh many of you know as the sparkly red shoe RI real estate agent, I have a penchant for those ruby red shoes. Usually they are on my feet in good weather (although they are pretty worn right now!). But this is the middle of winter, a horrendous winter in RI coastal real estate remember.
So what arrives for me through the mail yesterday is this package from Annapolis, MD from Maryland Realtor extraordinaire, Martha Brown. Excited and thrilled to open the package to discover these ruby red slippers!

ruby red shoes: Picture is Worth a Thousand Words in RI Living
- 03/03/12 08:10 PM
Picture is worth a Thousand Words in RI Living. As the saying goes sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words and I have to share this great sketch RI Realtor in the Sparkly Red Shoes picture that my New York friend Ellen Caruso created awhile ago. See I do coin myself the RI realtor in the sparkly red shoes…did that many years ago when I was coming up with a tag line for my business networking 30 second elevator speech. Ellen sketches home ideas that she calls ‘Whale Tales‘ and uses that as part of her business plan. She did this … (29 comments)
ruby red shoes: Who Knew the Real Meaning of the Ruby Red Shoes?

Who knew the real meaning of the Ruby Red Shoes? This is a tale of a client finding me in Virginia long before they began to work with me. Actually, she said it was after a meditation session and she said to her husband that she wanted the ruby red shoes...he did not understand?! No, it has to do with a RI home to be and long before any move by them took place. She GOOGLED ruby red shoes and many realtors came up but one came up in Rhode Island and it was the ahaa moment she said. All forces … (27 comments)
ruby red shoes: What Path do You Follow - Are You a Lone Wolf?

What Path do You Follow - Are You a Lone Wolf? Sometimes it is so difficult to walk to the alternate pathways in life...being part of a crowd makes us more secure in what we do. I believe many of us here in the real estate blog world have chosen to be different and discover what it is like to step outside the boundaries of comfort. It is that interesting thing called the unknown that we want to also discover and perhaps revolutionize what we do in our business world. I personally like to be different as the North Kingstown realtor … (18 comments)
ruby red shoes: Raincamp Atlantic City - Yellow Brick Road with Ruby Red Slippers

Raincamp Atlantic City - Yellow Brick Road with Ruby Red Slippers. Nothing like entering this city of Oz like buildings and promises of fortune and glory...why wouldn't my trademark Ruby Red Slippers bring me here? It was a glorious gathering of people, knowledge, learning, sharing and camaraderie and a bit of referral business that brought us all together to the Atlantic Oz City. Front row seat a must, laptops open and humming and questions and answers a coming from all. But Bob needs to give points to those who go to Raincamp so MORE people come and see the benefits of … (29 comments)
