Need a fun, outdoor, socially distant activity for the kids? Who doesn’t? I highly recommend snow tubing. We made the 25 minute trek to Wolf Ridge tubing for an hour of good times. I had a blast riding my giant tube down the man made slide. My son wasn’t even embarrassed to hold my hand …
Twenty twenty has been a fairly crappy year in general. Holidays were spent without cherished loved ones. My grandfathers funeral was via zoom. Virtual school proved ineffective for us and we had to leave our beloved elementary school for a school that went in person. Even Ironman and major marathons cancelled their races and went …
Cabin fever set in yesterday and we had to get out of our house. The Biltmore estate gave us room to spread out, get exercise and a dose of Vitamin D. The kids raced on the trail getting out lots of pent up energy.
You can make out Santa Claus cruising down Merrimon Avenue in North Asheville on a tractor. Yes, you heard me right and I have photographic proof. Thank you Santa for making my day.

As a Realtor, looking at pretty homes is a passion so seeing them in a different “light” is mixing business with pleasure. I have passed along this tradition to my children. We bundle …
Probably not my most exciting blog but I had to share. As I was running around the Rose Garden this morning in the freezing cold, a HUGE buck was in a friends yard. This is exciting to me because I am used to seeing bears, turkeys, hawks etc but never a deer. Is this a …
Real Estate is an amazing career. Every day is different and just when you think you have it figured out, something new and interesting comes along. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to sell a friend of a friends home. Super excited for the sellers to downsize and a new family to enjoy a special property.
Yesterday my daughter got confirmed at Central United Methodist Church downtown. Normally, the church would be buzzing with people on a Sunday morning during Advent.
