This is a photo of a lizard I took over Spring Break while visiting Pedernales Falls State Park with my son. This little guy was amazing... When on the sand, he became tan with spots... When on the tree, he became brown with spots... When on the grass, he became green... When on the rocks, he became grey... What a fascinating little fellow! … (5 comments)
This past week was my son's spring break and since his coast trip didn't pan out and I had real estate business to attend to, we opted to take a day and have a staycation! We visited Pedernales Falls State Park a little over an hour away from our home in the gorgeous Texas Hill Country. A place that my dad took me to several times in my youth...I had fond memories of it and we did a road trip and had a blast...enjoy the photos of this wonderful natural haven in … (3 comments)

jeani thomas richie: How the Sun Worshippers Seach...for their next home!
- 02/22/11 09:56 AM
How the Sun Worshippers Search... For their next home! I am a southern girl...more specifically, a Texas girl and that would be a title I wear with pride! I have lived on both coasts and points in between, but I was born in Texas and that is where I have spent the majority of my life.One of the major draws of the Texas lifestyle is the sunshine! I am also an optimist, always looking for that bright spot...or sun spot...in every situation and so when I read something positive about my region in a national publication, naturally it motivates me to … (1 comments)

jeani thomas richie: New Year, New Name!
- 01/03/11 12:58 AM
Happy New Year!!! I am particularly excited about 2011 because the ringing in of the New Year is also a ringing in of a new identity for me and my Texas Hill Country Real Estate firm. My mom and I are operating a virtual real estate company. We have the same agents and same great service, we just don't have the overhead of an office that was barely used by our agents who are all operating virtual as well. This business model works better for our personal situations and allows me the flexibility to travel more with my real estate … (3 comments)

jeani thomas richie: Wordless Wednesday...The best sunset in the county!
- 12/08/10 04:44 AM
Wordless Wednesday...The best sunset in the county! I took this photo from the dining deck at the Canyon Lake Marina. This is simply the best place to watch the best sunsets in the county or even in the entire Hill Country. There is just nothing like a sunset over water and we've got over 80 miles of shoreline on Canyon Lake, so there is plenty of water to enhance the natural beauty of our sunsets! If you are ever in the area, visit the Canyon Lake Marina at sundown and check out an event that is sure to please!
