400,000 Points AND A Hurricane? Sounds Like A Great Day To Me!

Where has the time gone? It seems like yesterday that my broker came in and said, "Doug you need to get an ActiveRain account, they are going to make people start paying for them". Being dumber than my years suggest, I ignored my broker's advice...

 When I later stumbled on ActiveRain I had to pay for Rainmaker status. And parting with money each month made my Scottish ancestors weep. But what a journey it was been! Screw the learning and Google juice. ActiveRain has been about the connections, dare I say friends, I have made across the country.

 When real estate world gets a little to wierd, a sympathetic ear (or I guess eye) is one blog post away. I won't dare mention my AR friends by name because I will leave some out. But you know who you are. Reading your posts is often the highlight of my day.

 Now about that picture...This is an amazing cigar bar on Canal Street in New Orleans. The owner's son is leaning against the pillar (he is 45-50 years old). They treat guest as most would close friends. Money spent here affords an amazing experience. Sort of like ActiveRain. See you at the half-million mark!

Congrats on reaching 400k points here on ActiveRain.  I understand that its has now been downgraded to a tropical strom.  Wishing you, your family and community a safe one , hoping that it did not cause alot of damage.

Michele--The primary concern is flooding. But we are located on high land (for Louisiana at least).

Kerrie--Thanks!

Having that motivation to reach 400k points is not easy to do, you should feel very proud.
