So Close to a Landmark...Family and Friends took Priority!

     I was so close to reaching the 200,000 mark on Active Rain....my family and friends took priority as I traveled from the Virgin Islands to attend my nephew's wedding in Philadelphia. No internet for a long time.  We arrived on Tuesday evening but immediately drove towards Rhode Island to visit my husband's closest friend from college.  I had never been to Rhode Island so we totally enjoyed the scenert along the way......didn't worry about email, internet or points on ActiveRain.

  What an emotional reunion to see my husband with his best friend....we hadn't seen him in over 20 years!  Between all of the reminiscing, we managed to visit Mystic, Connecticut, shop for live lobster and visit the Mystic Seaport with its historic buildings and ships.

  So our real estate referral business really works.....while waiting for the water to boil for the lobster, I received a phone call from a previous client who now needs to sell.....he didn't care that I was on the other side of the country and was happy to connect with a Realtor I recommended.....

  Back in Philly, we attended all of the wonderful wedding events and even had time to visit the 9th Street  Ialian Festival in South Philly.

   So now, I will finally top the 200,000 mark.....with a full heart of having spent time with family, friends and clients....Thank you ActiveRain!

I'm jealous! That sounds like a great way to get away and unwind a little bit while enjoying friends and family!

Congrats on the milestone!
