This is one of the coolest places I know in North Texas.  I came to know this place because they had contacted me about building a wine storage building for them with ICF technology.  Like a cave, only above ground. Anyway, they have really cool events all the time and the one for tomorrow, Sunda...

Solar is sexy.  I do solar in my businesses.  But the kind of solar most think of is solar panels and electricity.  But solar panels, while earth-friendly and a help on your utility bills, are not very good for heating a home. The better thing to do is to put the sun directly to work for you. The...

We've been having a problem with bees at my house.  Living out in the wilds of nature, you'd think they would prefer a more natural setting, but NO.  They have to set up home in the eaves of our house!  I've been battling these little buggers for the past 10 years.  No sooner do I eliminate a hiv...

Everybody hates holding open "houses" right?   I think I've found the exception to the rule. I took a couple of professional RE colleagues out hog hunting today.  I scared up a couple (hogs) but they didn't go where we needed them to.  Oh well, a bad day hunting sure beats a good day at the offic...

My youngest daughter wrote this about a week or so ago.   She's fifteen and very creative.  She's taken after her grandfather who also writes poems.

Yeah, right. What could the Copenhagen Conference on World Climate Change have to do with our real estate markets? How will this make the US a puppet regime? I found this very educational and I think everyone needs to look at this critically.  See what the world is up to and how our President and...

  Hey folks, There is hope for America, stupidity in government is not inevitable. But it takes hurculean effort to overcome it. Gene's post just goes to show that it is possible to stand up to the hijacked environmental movement.  We've got to stand up to it in Copenhagen in December, but to do ...

In honor of Veterans Day, I am posting a poem my daughter wrote back in 2003 concerning our active duty military that had just deployed to Iraq. She was 15 at the time and very insightful. And I'm proud to say not only is she my daughter, she takes after her grandfather, my dad, a vet and another...

It was a gorgeous day in North Texas.  Every 2nd Monday of the month is Bonham Trade Days, the local area-wide sale weekend. I was there with a lot of old doors which I use to make room dividers, armoires, tables, etc., mantels, wrought-iron work, barn doors, stall walls, roofing "tin" and some r...

Hey Maryland, WAKE UP!!!! There's a request for help from one of our AR colleagues and it is a RE deal. If you're claiming to be the best, then its time to prove it.
