I don't know how much attention we pay to each other's facebook pages, but if you have looked at mine lately, perhaps you've noticed that my friend count has dramatically increased. It's not that I've suddenly become more likeable or friend-ly, I've just been reconnecting.
Many of my facebook friends are from my high school days and I enjoy seeing them again in the way that facebook can allow us to "see" each other. I've got lots of teacher types in there too, and I always enjoy hearing what they have to say. Now that I'm retired, I'm using facebook to reconnect with former students and, I've got to say, it's a real kick!
I thought it was just going to be a real estate thing, where if I contacted 50 people, one of them might be interested in buying or selling property. It's turned into something much more. It's very satisfying to see how these young people are doing. For the teachers reading this, you understand how invested we become in the well-being of our students, and that doesn't change even if we're not in class together anymore. It feels oddly rewarding to see former students grown up and successful. Can't take much credit for it, but it's still nice to see.
So, although it's turned into more than a real estate thing, let's not let this facebook thing get out of hand. If one of them wants to buy a house, I'm there!

Here is a link to a very scenic property that I have listed near Portland, Ontario. This 25 acre building lot already has a drilled well and several acres of level land awaiting your dream home. Check out the link for more information and photos. Thanks!

Happy Thanksgiving
It's been a nice Thanksgiving weekend...and it's not even over yet. I know how glad both Jenn and Sam are to have had a PA Day on Friday and a holiday Monday. Even though it seems like their school year has only begun, that first long weekend can't come too soon.
The weather has been incredible too. I was looking up some photos from previous autumns and found a couple that I remember taking and really like. Have a look.

We do the homework?
I thought I did the homework! That's my line. So, I thought it was very clever when I saw that the Ontario Real Estate Association, OREA, is using essentially the same slogan in a new campaign promoting realtors. I'll take the free advertising for sure!
