Palm Bay Florida Regional Dog Park

Tue, 05 Aug 2008 14:23:19 -0700

My dog, Bailey the Boxer, loves the fresh air of being outside. So, we let him out every chance we get. He is very social and loves to meet other dogs. We take him in the car for regular rides, as he doesn't like to be left out of the family fun. We love to exercise and play with him. Then, he's happy!

For those of you dog lovers here in Palm Bay Florida, Palm Bay Regional Park has a dog park where you can take your dog to socialize with other dogs. It is 40,000 square feet of fenced off section, with one area for small dogs and one for large dogs. Here you can let your dog off leash.

"When People Talk, Listen Completely. Most People Never Listen" - Ernest Hemingway

Tue, 01 Sep 2009 09:02:49 -0700

Isn't this one of the biggest complaints you hear from people?

She doesn't listen.

He didn't hear me.

He wasn't paying attention.

If only he heard what I said.

He didn't follow directions.

I was recently talking to a friend of mine and she was frustrated because she felt that her husband wasn't listening to her.

I just had a similiar conversation with a new client of mine who indicated that she felt that her previous agent really didn't hear what she had to say.

And, I also had a talk with my teenage daughters about listening.

Isn't it a common complaint from people?

Feeling like they aren't being heard?

That no one is listening?

That they are misunderstood?

Are you listening? No, I mean, really listening?

Do you hear what someone has to say?

Do you understand the point that someone is trying to get across to you?

"Be a good listener, your ears will never get you in trouble." -Frank Tyger

There's a reason that we have TWO ears

and TWO eyes,

but only ONE mouth...

It's so we can listen and see twice as much as we speak.

We can learn and grow through our eyes and our ears.

How much have you ever learned by running your mouth?

I think that being a good listener is truly a gift. It is something that some must strive to perfect on a daily basis.

"There are people who, instead of listening to what is being said to them, are already listening to what they are going to say themselves." -Doroty Sarnoff

Do you know people like this?

I sure do.

"It is the province of knowledge to speak and it is the privilege of wisdom to listen." - Oliver Wendell Holmes

So, the next time someone sits down with you "to talk",

why not stop, give them your undivided attention and listen?

So that you can truly "hear" what that person is trying to tell you.

NOTE: I previously wrote this post at the beginning of the year. But, there have been so many instances lately where it has come to mind.

Fairview Estates, Lake Washington, Melbourne FL

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 09:37:02 -0800

Fairview Estates, Lake Washington Area, Melbourne FL

Fairview Estates is a small, well appointed community of just under 60 custom built, single family homes, situated on half acre lots or larger. Fairview feels like country living in the city. As of this writing there is no Homeowners Association in place.

Fairview is located south of Lake Washington Road, one block west of Wickham Road. Location is key in this desirable neighborhood. Walk to shopping, Burger King, Taco Bell, Ice Cream, Dunkin' Donuts. Just minutes to I-95 and US 1 and the Maxwell C King Center for the Performing Arts.

Fairview is situated near top rated Brevard County Schools.

There are currently no houses for sale in Fairview Estates. And, currently there are no houses under contract. Fairview is a well established neighborhood, and typically there is not much owner turnover.

There were no sales in the neighborhood in 2011. However, there were 4 houses that sold between July and December 2010. List prices were between $169,999 to $217,777. Sales prices were $179,500 to $218,500. These were built between 1981 and 1993.

They ranged from 1794 to 1957 square feet of living (under air). Three of the four houses had pools.

And 1 of the houses boasted a three car garage. Many of the homes can accommodate R/V parking.

Fairview is located between the Pineda Causeway and the Eau Gallie Causeways.

A drive to enjoy beautiful Brevard County beaches takes about 15 minutes.

Being in the Lake Washington area of Melbourne it's a short drive across the Eau Gallie or Pineda Causeway to beaches.

Hop on your bicycle and head down to Lake Washington to catch a glimpse

of an incredible sunset.

The Lake Washington area of Melbourne, near Fairview Estates, boasts many beautiful neighboring

communities at incredibly affordable prices.

Being a resident of the Lake Washington area of Melbourne, myself, I'd have to say, that in addition to

being so close to our Brevard County Beaches, I can bicycle down to Lake Washington and catch a glimpse

of an incredible sunset, anytime I like.

communities at incredibly affordable pricing.
