I’ve done some site updates today including upgrading the WordPress installation to WordPress Multi-User (WPMU) and installing BuddyPress. My vision for the site is create a community of like-minded folks who are interested in Real Estate.
Feel free to register on the site and take a look around. Let me know what you think!

Somehow – and I am not sure exactly what happened – but I lost all of the content on this blog. So I am spending the day re-uploading all of the old content. It’s going to take a while, though.
If there’s something missing, please be patient and hopefully all will be well again soon. If not, please do drop me a note on this post and let me know so I can fix it.
Sorry for the confusion!

It’s about time . . .
Eric Pryne’s recent post in the Seattle Times – “Bellevue Towers, other new condo projects cutting prices”
I think the housing market has been way over-inflated for many years already and feel it’s about time some of these places – that are largely vacant – reduce their prices. I’m sure they’ll never fall to where they really should be, but it’s a start anyway.
This past weekend was not only Seafair, it was the 11th Annual KWJZ Smooth Jazz Festival out at the Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery in Woodinville. My mom and I attended the festival on Saturday and had a blast.
You can read my full review of the events which included shows by Nils, Marian Meadows, Wayman Tisdale and The Crusaders at my main blog.
Thanks to KWJZ for putting such an awesome event! Although my mom has been to both days several times in past years, this was my first time. And next year, I’m going to both days! If you’re in Seattle and you love good music, you should check it out next year too.
In the arena,
This weekend marks the annual Seafair festivities with lots of fun stuff going. As usual, The US Navy Blue Angels will be performing (see schedule below), there’ll be hydroplane races on Lake Washington and of course, the famed 59th Annual Seafair Torchlight Parade will be taking place in downtown Seattle.
