Private Schools in New Bern NC

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

When you are looking for private schools in New Bern NC look no further. The Epiphany is the best private school we have in New Bern.

I like this school because it invites people of all faiths. It provides a safe environment for our students to learn and play. I never have to worry about what is happening to my children during the day. I know they are receiving a great education and are surrounded by teachers and educators that really care about their students.

Golds Gym in New Bern Nc

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

Shake off those negative vibes, turn off that terrible news station and head off to New Bern’s only Gold’s Gym. Located at 3340 Martin Luther King Blvd between Target and the Twin Rivers Mall, Gold’s is easy to access.  

I started going to the gym before there ever was a gym there. Before they constructed Gold’s Gym, the company had a trailer set outside of it so that they could start to sell memberships. All these years later, their membership is growing strong.  

Here is a link to the class schedule

   

Why I Blog About New Bern NC

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

People ask me not only why I blog but why I blog about New Bern!

All you need to do is look at this picture to see how beautiful this area truly is. It is only March and you can see flowers and trees blooming everywhere. The temperature today was in the 50’s, which is typical for this time of year. On the other hand, temperatures reached in the 70’s for a few days last week.  We have mostly mild winters but did get a few Artic blasts resulting in snow last month.  Besides mild temperatures, New Bern is a great place to raise a family, I am speaking personally now. I have never lived in one area for as long as I have here in NC. I never have felt that I was in danger at any point, that there was way too much traffic, or that there were just too many people in general. Come see why I blog about New Bern almost every day.

I took this picture today while on a break from class at the New Bern Convention Center.  It is such a nice place to hold any kind of function. It is located on South Front Street.

Oil and Gas Stock Prices Take A Tumble, Why Not Our Gas Prices at The Pumps?

Monday, September 15th, 2008

The TV show “Fast Money” has the oil and gas stock prices down today, Why then are our gas prices still showing over $4.00 a gallon?

Take a look at any gas station in New Bern and Havelock NC today and you still see gas prices from $4 dollars to $4.50 a gallon.

Rumor has it that the increase was due to Hurricane Ike but now it has come and gone and still prices remain the same.

How about giving us a break. Do the oil companies really think we are that dumb? No, just know that we have no choice.

Either buy gas or don’t drive. Great choice gas companies, thanks for the gouge!!

As Real Estate Agents, don’t you think we have enough issues besides dealing with increased gas prices?

New Bern is Too Hot For Outside Pets

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

With the temperatures being in the upper 90’s, outside is no place for any-one’s pets.

Bring your pets inside when it heats up outside or heat exhaustion could kill them!

Consult your local Veterinarian for signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion.

Avoid getting Caught up in the SEO Web, Hire Talent

Confusing SEO Web

Hey you, yes I mean you. Do you ever feel like your tangled in an SEO web?

Everyone these days are talking about what to do and not to do when it comes to the Internet ranking of your site.

 I have read so many articles on this subject that my eyes are about to pop out of my head. Everybody has advise.

For example, when did it become a fad to miss spell words in order to get traffic directed to your site?

Before you could use links to optimise your site,I think you still can but be careful, there are some major penalties for this if you link too much and the link is not relevant to the content that you are writting about.  

As a Real Estate agent, I have to say hats off to the people that SEO for a living. Give me a Buyer or Seller any day over a messy confusing system that they have to deal with on an hourly basis. 

By the way, any good ideas on how to hire these people?  

       

New Bern NC Soccer Team Wins Beast Of The East

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

February 1st and 2nd was a great weekend

 The 93 Coastal United girls Soccer Team won this Greenville NC Tournament called The Beast Of The East .

The girls had to play 4 soccer games over a two day period, 2 games on Saturday and 2 games on Sunday. Two of the games I might add, being a parent of one of the girls was at 8:30am and 1 hours driving time away. There is nothing like driving to a game when it is still dark and 38 degrees.

 This particular tournament used points to determine the winner, some do not. Going into the final game our team had 28 points and their opponent had 19. ccording to the rules our team had to win that game, even though they were undefeated  in-order to win tournament. 

 We dominated the field and the girls received their gold medals!!
