Yesterday, while I was out and about, I spoke with two of my ActiveRain friends on the phone.  Paul Slaybaugh called me and we chatted for awhile, then he had to go because he was busy with his two sons.  I later called Adam Waldman and he had to call me back because he was watching "Hard Knocks"...

Well, the pattern held again for me this week.  I have been in real estate for over a decade now, and pretty much every time I decide to leave town (which has been more rare lately), my business activity seems to explode.  Thankfully, I have a business partner who is great about covering for me w...

Inna Hardison tagged me for this latest evil round of memes.  This one seemed a bit easier, so why not?  Plus, she either challenged my brilliance or alluded to me as brilliant, although I'm not sure which one.  Either way, I'm game.

I am currently 38 years old, as of this past weekend.  Having been married for 15 years now, I have been around a lot of couples, both with and without children.  Obviously, I also see a lot of married couples when I am trying to help them to buy or sell Austin real estate.  As such, I realized s...

In Pflugerville, along I-35, just north of Grand Avenue Parkway, sits Austin's Park (formerly Austin's Park and Pizza).  Although they still serve pizza, they changed the name awhile back.  I have taken our family there on a number of occasions to enjoy miniature golf, bumper boats, video games, ...

I have been playing here in the Rain for just over a year now, and I have been fortunate enough to have received a good number of referrals from my friends here.  For the past 12 years or so, I have been selling homes here in Austin, Texas.  Since our primary company website gets decent traffic, ...

I have received many emails over the past couple of days inquiring about the guy appearing on a couple of my blogs in photos this week:           "Who is that strange man skulking around at your birthday party with the baby on his shoulders?  He looks like a spy.  Did you invite him to the party,...
