A while back, I wrote that I had volunteered with Junior Achievement.  Up until now we hadn’t been able to find an assignment that was reasonably close… but that changed this week.

I am now the JA volunteer for Ms. Ferrer-Adames 4th Grade class at Nesbitt Elementary School in Gwinnett County.  and I recently had our first class together.  It was a lot of fun. Read the rest of this entry »

Downtown Lilburn

For the last 35 years, local crafters and entertainers have gathered at Lilburn’s City Park to display their crafts and entertain the spectators and shoppers…  For the 36th Annual event this year, it will be no different… and don’t forget to bring an appetite as well.  If you like craft and art shows, as well as good festival food and a variety of music, you should fit right in.

Arcado Elementary Lunchtime Thoughts…

The “Lunch Lady” did NOT have an easy job.

One of the reasons that I embarked on my career in real estate is that I wanted to be able to spend more time IN the lives of my children.  And today has definitely been a rung in that ladder.  I volunteered to help the small kids with lunch at Arcado Elementary School in Lilburn, GA.

Basically, the kindergartners need a Read the rest of this entry »

Get you Swim on…

Have you been to the Mountain Park Aquatic Center?  If you live around Lilburn or Mountain Park, I’m sure you have noticed there on Rockbridge Road near Five Forks, just up the road from Kroger.  But have you been there?

It is a great facility.  In addition to the community center which hosts a variety of events, there is the outside recreational pool, an inside instructional pool and the lap pool. Read the rest of this entry »

Gwinnett County Parks #1!

DSCN0602

Did you know that?  I keep seeing it on a couple of Parks’ signs that are near me in Lilburn.  Gwinnett County Parks & Recreation named #1 in the USA. But it hadn’t really sunk into me…

So I decided to check it out.  I had NO clue of the level of commitment that Gwinnett had to its parks.  There are so many more facilities than the ones I was aware of… and having lived in several parts of Gwinnett in my 20 years here, I have been aware of a lot of the parks.

SRBC Car Show Delayed until May 16th

The Smoke Rise Baptist Church Car Show, scheduled for today was delayed by weather.  Overnight rains forced the organizers to alter the date, fearing more poor weather.

A few cars showed up this morning, but apparently the website and email list was pretty effective at getting out the word.

One of the cars that was there this morning was this beautiful Shelby GT500 clone.  Gotta love a 428 Cobra Jet.
