Well, at long last the word has come...

Ground breaking for the new Panama City Florida International Airport.

The ground breaking is scheduled for November 1st!

The airport is scheduled to open sometime late 2009/2010.  The construction of banks, commercial projects and additional housing has been underway in anticipation of this event.

This is very exciting news for our area and I for one welcome the event.  It has been a long road, but finally a light at the end of the tunnel. 

We are ready to move into the 21st century and welcome the change and business this brings to our area.

I'll post some pictures and video (if I remember to take my camera) on my website of the event.  There should be a great turn out for this wonderful… Read Full Post

Mainly due to the horror stories we've all heard and continue to hear about the Real Estate Market.

Well it's been awhile since I've blogged and alot has happened.

So, let's get to updating everyone:

As you can see, we've moved our blog to a new location (thanks REW). 

We have a new addition to our family, Shiela the Shelty.  Shiela was found on our way to do an open house for a customer.  She was so friendly and looked so lost. We went door to door trying to find her owner, and after a few hours decided to take her home and contact the local Animal Shelter.  We placed an Ad in the paper but no one responded.  So, she now has a new home and everything looks promising for her future with us.
