Williamson County, TN #14 in US richest counties


Ran across a great article in the Huffington Post that lists Williamson County at the 14th richest county in the nation by income. Just another great reason to live in the Middle Tennessee area. Neighboring counties with high jobs growth, income, home values usually positively effect the value you of your home.

As compared to other parts of the US, here in Middle Tennessee our home and land values have not been nearly as adversely affected as other parts of the country. 2010 appears to be shaping up as a year of figuring out where we are and where we are heading. The feeling I get from those I talk to seem to think this is a year we find our footing and the foundation for a slow rebuilding process.

Let's just all keep hanging on and we'll get through this!

Frosty Bacon!!!! The amount of coverage in such a short amount of time is impressive.

Great Game! Congratulations


Well, it's the day after the big game here in middle Tennessee, it's back to home sales, but wanted to make a quick observation. I have had the privilege to work with Drew Brees doing charity work and want to congratulate him, his team and the city of New Orleans for the great underdog victory. Drew is one of the most humble and accommodating celebrate athletes that I have had the privilege to meet. I must admit it would have been okay with me to see the Tennessee Stud Peyton Manning win another Super Bowl, but all in all Brees is a great guy and from the emotions we witnessed coming from him last night it made him even more enduring. Doesn't hurt that New Orleans featured three former Tennessee stars on their side of the ball. Great game!

Making the most of Snow days!


Well we wanted some snow and we got some snow and some ice. So we decided to make the most of it. My girls and I met their Grandparents and Aunt and Uncle at Barfield Park for some wintertime fun. For those of you who thought skiing in the 'Boro was impossible, think again.
