My girlfriends and I took a little weekend trip to NYC. I had 3 closings the week before we left so I was excited to have a little down time. Our trip was fantastic. We went for a 10 mile steamy Central Park run on Saturday and 6 along the Hudson on Sunday. In between …
I stopped in front of one of my favorite places in Asheville on my run the other day. Fond memories have been made at this beautiful hotel over the years. My children have loved getting hot chocolate and admiring the Gingerbread houses during the Christmas season. My family has spent many birthday dinners at the …

Every December, for as long as I can remember, I have loved driving around one evening looking at the neighborhood Christmas lights. 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 …
