700th Active Rain Blog – Where are We in the Scheme of Baseball Home Runs?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Selley Group Real Estate, LLC

700th Blog Record

Almost feels like this is a baseball home run record we’re chasing.  Hitting the 700 mark and moving further onward feels like Cherise and I are amongst baseball legendary status of some sort, except that the hierarchy of Active Rain is years ahead of where we are; some have even eclipsed the “MM” milestone.

Nonetheless, we’re not sweating the details about records nor are we really concerned with the pace of blogging activity amongst the notables, though we enjoy reading their insights about the real estate business.

700 blogs for us is the place where we sense some skill about hitting, as we’ve batted for a higher average than first expected, and we’re now seeing the ball more clearly as it passes over the plate.  Sometimes we might make the decision to swing with more effort regarding blogging and doing video blogs, and at other times, we just let the ball cross the plate when it’s obviously out of the strike zone.  Either way, I think we’ve found our “swing” about blogging against the other challenges of the game of life.  How about you?

You are doing fine you two. I think I noted myself when I hit 600 and then stopped counting LOL. Keep up always producing that fine work.
