- 10/30/13 07:06 AM
Welcome Home Wednesday! One popular feature, when purchasing a home, is a swimming pool, but one thing to consider is the liability and costs associated with having and maintaining a pool. Swimming pools add great value to entertaining guest and family, complementing your back yard landscaping, and a great form of exercise.

During my years as a child, we would watch each and every Muhammad … (0 comments)

But what stood out to me the most, was that he didn’t really seem to have an urgency to get anywhere, more so as if he … (0 comments)
