meeting fellow activerain members: ActiveRain members meet in Phoenix
- 02/17/14 08:18 AM
One of the great things about being a part of Active Rain is the opportunity to meet other members. Today, I had the pleasure of being treated to lunch by fellow members Praful Thakkar, a Realtor® from Andover, MA and Ajay Pandya, a Realtor® from the Greater Columbus, OH area. Both of these wonderful gentlemen were in Phoenix for the Keller Williams annual meeting. Because we’ve had warmer than normal weather, we chose to meet part way at Aunt Chilada’s at Squaw Peak. I knew they had a wonderful patio where we could enjoy our weather and their food was (14 comments)
meeting fellow activerain members: "mini" ActiveRain meetup
- 04/30/12 10:01 AM
A couple of weeks ago, Irene Durocher emailed me that she would be in town and wanted to have lunch together, again. And, because she knows we have a great Arizona group of ActiveRainer's, asked if I would invite a few others.
Meeting for lunch at Charleston's at the corner of Frank Lloyd Wright and Scottsdale Rd, were Irene, Debora Nichols, Anna Kruchten and Jeane Steiner. Jeane had brought along a coupon for a free appetizer - we like FREE. We enjoyed their creamy spinach dip and chips while chatting, then continued our conversations over a great lunch.
Last week was a particularly hectic week - three more contracts were outbid (the story of my life as a Realtor® in Scottsdale, Cave Creek and north Phoenix.) Of course there was the dreaded tax day (I owe, I owe, it's off to work I go.)
I like to go to ActiveRain to get some great information and advice as well as have some laughs with the great jokes and stories. I have my usual "subscribed" to bloggers I follow and I try to comment on at least one person's (26 comments)
One of the newer members of ActiveRain, Irene Durocher Irene Durocher's Blog, a Realtor® in Boca Raton, FL has been writing some fun, informative blogs and I've enjoyed them for the few months she's been a member here at ActiveRain. She contacted me a couple of months ago saying she was coming to Scottsdale, AZ, for the Christmas holiday and thought it would be fun to get together. We emailed a (112 comments)
When I first read the blog from Kerrie, I immediately said "count me in" and called my friend, Kevin O'Donnell, owner of KO's - known for the great patio area. Then, Jan Green from Re/Max Excalibur was the first one to contact me to say she would help with the planning.
Because this is the first ActiveRainMeetUp, there was a great reason to team up with Teresa St. John from First American Title and Mark Taylor from Amerifirst Financial who will be treating us to (15 comments)
meeting fellow activerain members: activerain member - 'Dee' Mayers
- 09/21/10 05:04 PM
I've been following Dee Mayers' blogs for a couple of weeks now. Informative, witty, and filled with inspiration. Her blog: Without the wax - 'Dee' Mayers I've been wondering what the "without the wax" part was. I thought it meant it was plain speaking without being "glossed" over, without being coated in wax to blur the issues. I knew I was pretty close, because her blogs are very well thought out and truthful. But, I wanted to know for sure. So, I emailed her and asked. She responded with the following: I first heard the term "without wax" some years ago as I (4 comments)

Now that the Arizona weather is getting bearable again, we can actually get out and enjoy activities. Today, we decided to take a "road trip" to personally meet one of the activerain members who was holding an open house. So, after finishing up the last 6 BPO's I had left for the weekend, we cleaned up, got in the car and drove about an hour over to Sun City Grand in Surprise, AZ to personally meet Leolinda Bowers at one of her open houses. What a gracious and knowledgable lady!!! We spent about a half hour getting to know one (13 comments)
meeting fellow activerain members: Connecting with Activerain members
- 08/31/10 05:36 PM
Today I was rushing to get ready for a listing appointment and a business lunch when my phone rang. It was Steve Hoffacker from Activerain. He's an ambassador here and I had asked him a question about blogging in an email. Instead of emailing me back, he took the time to call. Unfortunately, I had about 15 minutes to finish drying my hair, brush my teeth, let the dogs out and get in the car. He graciously said he'd call back and we arranged a time.
