Default Well, never mind...

I was just getting ready to post a question about Griffin Avenue when I found Home Depot, Sam's, the liquor store, banks, restaurants, etc. and answered it for myself!

Aren't Google Earth & Maps cool? You can drive all around and get lost, retrace your steps 50 times, etc. and not spend any money on gas!

I'm going to have to post in another thread for my next question.. looking for a rental. Got a contract on my house on Monday of this week (of course it has to close) but it was on the market for 23 hrs.and had two offers!

I too congratulate you on the quick offers on your home. I also enjoy the gas milage I get when I use Google Earth and maps. I do worry though about the oil usage. I can't find the oil cap on my laptop to check the level and how I'm going to add oil when it's low!

Thanks, everyone! I'm so excited but so is all of this stuff! It's all starting to have babies.

That's really great news. What was your secret? Low price? Staged? Was there something special you did? Many could use your input. Carol certainly can sell!

It's too bad that there is no golf cart access to these stores and the ones across 441/27. I would think that it would be in the interest of these retailers to get together and install some kind of infrastructure that would allow us to get to them in our golf carts. I shop at Lowes instead of Home Depot for that reason and I am going to drop my Sam's Club membership when it comes up for renewal. I would think that all of the stores in the Best Buy Plaza would benefit from more ease of access. I only shop there if I absolutely have to.
