I hope everyone is enjoying this wonderful time of year! I'm sitting in our real estate office which we share with the buggy rental shop. A family from Long Island just rented two buggies for two hours... don't they know that it's raining? This day has amazed me... it's been raining on and off all day, but that hasn't stopped the tourists from coming in steadily to rent our open air electric cars. The temperature is mild (mid 60's), and the Village is full. Most of these people don't have a clue that this is our winter - when we southerners stay at home, and maybe even build a fire!
I love living in an area that others love to visit. Not only is it good for our economy, but it's equally good for our spirit. This activity reminds us that we're fortunate to call this "home" year 'round. It's been a good week for us in real estate, too; 3 contracts, one listing, and I'm scheduled to show property this evening. While most of America is vacationing, we're in one of our busy time. I love the holidays, and I especially love what the holidays mean for our area!
I hope everyone has a safe and prosperous 2007.
Happy New Year! |
