ga: Perry Fairgrounds 2013 - Georgia National Fair - 09/27/13 01:43 AM
Perry Fairgrounds 2013 - Georgia National Fair begins October 3 - 13th. Last year I enjoyed going on the first night because it was armband day, so we could enjoy any ride and not have to worry about buying tickets. This year arm band days are being sold on Oct 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 13. Armbands on opening night only are $16 each and admission is $6 for adult and children under 10 free with paying adult. Opening day rides start at 3 p.m. - 10 p.m. I wish opening night was on Friday, but I guess we can … (1 comments)

Summer Camp has 30 Open Slots - Trinity Woods Macon GA - Things to do in Macon GA

Kamron is still enjoying his Summer Camp at Trinity Woods in Macon. He doesn't like being picked up too early, and wants to spend as much time at Camp as possible. I'm pretty sure tomorrow is bike day (every Thursday) and Friday is remote control car day. It is a little extra work packing his lunch, extra clothes, and bathing suit every day, but he truly enjoys each and every day. There is still time for anyone to sign up for the final … (0 comments)

ga: Scam Alert - 1st Page on Google - Have They Called You Already? - 03/28/10 02:41 AM

Scam Alert: I had a telemarketer call me promising 1st Page on Google for my favorite keywords. This was my first red flag: Anyone who promises first page on Google: look out. I asked him if this is pay per click advertising and he says no it is unlimited clicks. Then I ask him if he is selling Google Adwords: He says no, but doesn't tell me exactly what he is selling, just 1st page on Google. This is the second red flag: There are only two types of Google Search Engine results - Organic and Pay per Click (Google Adwords). … (13 comments)

Planning on Buying a Home with a FHA Loan? Acting Later than Sooner will Cost You $$

FHA Policy changes affecting homebuyers are expected to go into affect on April 3, 2010. This means any homes/loans not closed prior to this date will have to meet the new FHA requirements. The new requirements will reduce the amount the seller is allowed to contribute towards buyers closing costs from 6% of purchase price to 3% - this will increase the amount of out of pocket expenses for the homebuyer. FHA policy change will also increase the upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium (MIP) from 1.75% … (2 comments)

Home Buying Process - Buying a Home in Warner Robins GA
Here is a brief synopsis step-by-step of how I like to help homebuyers find their dream home.

The type of loan can affect what types of homes you can purchase and which ones to go look at. He can also let you know what … (0 comments)

Having Fun at Stone/Snow Mountain - 2 Hrs North of Warner Robins GA
Kamron and I went for snow day Stone Mountain last week and it was quite the adventure from start to finish. The 2 hour car ride up was somewhat uneventful with only a couple small fights between Mickey, Minney, and Kamron. We had to separate Minnie and Mickey, and let Mickey ride up front with me. Once we arrived at Snow Mountain we played in the snow area until our sledding time started. We had 2 hours allotted for our downhill tubing. After our 7th or 8th time … (0 comments)
